OUR INTEGRITY, HARD WORK AND 30+ YEARS' EXPERIENCE WILL NET YOUR BEST RECOVERY. CALL US TODAY!

          In my over 30 years of law practice I have had extensive litigation and non-litigation experience in motor vehicle accident cases, Workers' Compensation, medical malpractice, Social Security disability, criminal, probate and Family Law matters. We have attained settlements and judgments of millions of dollars in cases involving injuries to our clients in vehicular crashes, unnecessary surgeries, nursing home neglect and at-work injuries. I have been the principal of The Rubin Law Firm since leaving my first firm in 1989, and have been awarded the Martinedale-Hubbell "A-V" (highest) rating by fellow lawyers and judges as to my legal ability and ethics every year since 2002 (more than 12 years running). This designation is designed to attest to "preeminent" status amonst lawyers in the community and is, by all accounts, a much more accurate and less subjective rating than any client or attorney testimonials given by other sources as it is the private and undisclosed rating of lawyers AND JUDGES familiar with my work.  I can and do assure every client the highest commitment to excellence in the work we do for them.

         I am a graduate of DeSmet, Jesuit High School in St. Louis, Washington University in St. Louis (Prince School of Business Administration) and St. Louis University School of Law(1984, cum laude).

There in a time in need
I was introduced to Attny Joe Rubin by my youngest Son actually. Mr. Rubin handled an accident case for me and my oldest daughter when we were rear ended. It was a very nasty accident and we were both injured. Nothing life threatening but serious enough that we are still dealing with issues today from that accident. He showed extreme professionalism and even helped us find doctors etc. to assist with our care. I would recommend Mr. Rubin to anyone I know.

Amazing experience with car accident/personal injury
I actually randomly selected this attorney from searches on the Avvo site, my accident was completely stressful and Mr. Rubin made the entire case stress free. He was very professional and quick with my case. I feel I got way more than expected regarding the case as Mr. Rubin wouldn't settle for less than what was deserved. I would highly recommend if you have any personal injuries as a result of an accident. I felt he has the client (myself) best interests and truly cares about us.

A man of his word!
Mr. J.Rubin handled my particular difficult and complicated case with the highest professionalism. I appreciate the little things, Joe took the time to make sure I understood, he even took time to involve my son , so he could help me understand too. If he tells you something will happen, be patient...it will happen.

Tickets
A friend of mine suggested Mr.Rubin to me when I got two tickets over the summer. He worked with my work schedule to meet with me off his business hours, gave me updates, and represented me amazingly! If I ever need a lawyer again, I’ll always use Joseph!

The Best
Joe Rubin was dependable, personable, and efficient throughout every aspect of my case these past 3 years. I initially reached out to him because a friend of mine had recommended him and I can honestly say, he did not disappoint. There were times I would be stressed and worried to point of tears but Joe had such calming yet confident demeanor that I knew he had my best interests in mind. Joe has many stable relationships and connections within the court system (both defense and prosecutors) which helped when it came down to negotiating and getting answers fast. He went above and beyond to defend my case and I would trust him 100% to do the same for everyone else. He knows what he is doing. This is your guy.

Affordable & Amazing
Are you in a bind with the law? Innocent or Guilty: fear not - Joseph Rubin is your man. Over the last 5 years or so, I have gotten to know Joe as not only the greatest lawyer I've ever had, but a good friend as well. He will go to court in your place so you can stay at home and relax. He will pull every string that he can to get you off the hook. He will flexibly work with you regarding payments. He will invite you to parties at his house. He will treat you as a friend / family member and hold your hand through the troublesome times of being convicted or arrested by the law. If it wasn't for this man, I would either be in jail, not have a license, and possibly not even have the occupation and family that I have today. If you are looking for a solution to a legal problem in your life, Joe Is Your Man. Don't just take my word for it: Find out for yourself. Joseph Rubin is Hands Down the Most Reliable, Affordable, Professional, Reputable, & Personable lawyer that you can find in the entire St. Louis area! (& this is an understatement)

Personable and Trustworthy
The 2 things I was looking for in a lawyer, personable and trustworthy, when I chose Joe to represent me 19 years ago when an unfortunate event occurred and I needed legal representation. These are the 2 same reasons I continue to use him 19 years later. I trust joe to recommend him to family and friends and anybody else that is in need of a great personable and trustworthy attorney.

Divorce from HELL
I had a horrible divorce. It was cross country because my wife went to Florida with the kids and refused to come back. I was accused of everything under the sun. Joe took on my case and I must admit that he was very, very aggressive. I heard from him quite often throughout the week on what was happening on my case. I have had friends who got divorced and were very dissatisfied with their lawyers. They would have to check in regularly and still not know what was happening. I highly recommend anyone out there to use Mr. Rubin as their attorney. He was able to relate to my daughters and I on a personal level.
