Fred Truglio someone you can trust.

Fred Truglio has been my lawyer for over 30 years and is always accessible when called. Fred is ready to answer and help with any questions and concerns I have. I have recommended Fred to family and friends who have hired him. I consider Fred not only as a lawyer but a friend.

Best Lawyer In Chicago

Fred’s office represented me in both a workmen’s compensation case where I injured my arm and several years later in a car accident where I injured my knee. In both cases he answered all of my questions and kept me informed of the progress of my case and always put me first. I found him very approa...chable and easy to talk to. Both matters settled for more money and faster than I had expected. I have referred many of my friends and relatives to this office over the years and they have experienced similar results. I highly recommend them if you are injured and need an honest and experienced injury trial lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
