Wrongfull Death Case

Terry led the team for my father's wrongful death case, in which we recently accepted a settlement from the defendants. His firm had worked hard on the case over the past few years as multiple defendants were involved including a large entity. Depositions were taken thoroughly, scenes/events were rec...onstructed accurately, experts were involved etc., and the whole discovery process was executed in a very efficient, accurate, knowledgeable, and professional manner. Terry fought hard for my family and did everything he could in our best interests. He wasn't afraid to stand up to large corporate interests and kept working persistently on the evidence/case against them. My family and I are very grateful to Terry and his team for the work they have done to help bring closure for the great loss we have endured. I highly recommend Terry Rubino and his law firm for wrongful death cases in IN and IL. We had a very positive experience and a successful outcome.

Mr. Rubino absolutely is the best attorney you could have represent you! He is professional, confident, respectful, and knowledgeable. He guided me through all aspects of the legal process. Because of Mr. Rubino's superb skills, we won the case.

I would highly recommend Terry and his firm. While mine was a small case compared to most, I never felt this was put aside or on the back burner. Every one from the front desk to the very top was very professional. Terry, Michael and Terri in the courtroom had facts straight and no second-guessing.

Fantastic Lawyer and Law Firm

I was referred to Terry Rubino by a close friend following the wrongful death of my husband. I have found that Terry is an extremely hard-working, professional, sincere, and honest attorney. His courtroom conduct is remarkable! Terry and his office staff communicate quickly, in fact e-mails are... responded to promptly -- usually the same day. Without any hesitation, anyone looking for a law firm that is Trustworthy, Experienced and Successful should call Terry Rubino's office.
