Ruben David Sanmiguel's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I have had the opportunity of knowing Ruben for many years. He is always prepared, is very knowledgeable on the law, and works tirelessly for his clients. I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. I've seen him work hard for his clients and obtain good results."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ruben and I were adversaries in Cook County Criminal Court when I served as an Assistant State's Attorney and he served as a Public Defender. Ruben was always a great advocate for his clients, very knowledgable about the law and criminal procedure and also very professional. I have seen Ruben in court numerous times over the last twenty years and he is consistently a great attorney to have on your side. I highly recommend him."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. Ruben Sanmiguel and I have exchanged ideas on various DUI and related matters. He is very thorough and conscientious about protecting his client's rights. Ruben carriers the added bonus of being Spanish-speaking. The language barrier can hamper an accused's defense. I endorse him and also admire his web page."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. If you are in trouble in a criminal case, Ruben is a great advocate. Ruben is highly professional, he works hard, and he returns calls faster than any attorney I have ever met. Unlike many others, Ruben also has a wide base of experience all across northern Illinois, and he commands the instant respect of prosecutors. Ruben has a great deal of trial experience and thinks well on his feet. He is not the sort of attorney to plea out a case if there is a reasonable defense. This attorney has my total confidence."
