Having had a personal injury case, involving Mike Polan and this law firm, I personally can vouch for their high-levels of moral, "good faith" and professionalism related to the daily practices that I have directly experienced. I never before experienced such consistently warm, humble, and genuine personalities, involving a law office, as I had experienced with these exceptionally good people. The front staff, Atty Polan and Attorney Rubino were so delightful, that even my doggy("Lambie"), felt appreciated and welcomed during our visits. If you're wondering if this is the right choice for you, don't, because they are the team(people)you'll trust and be comfortable working with.

He is equally skilled and comfortable settling a case or trying it for his clients, and he does so with professionalism and integrity.

Mike and his team were very effective in handling our wrongful death case regarding my late father. My family and I had worked with Mike over the past few years on our lawsuit against multiple defendants including a large entity. He was very successful in taking thorough depositions, interviewing experts & witnesses, and reconstructing scenes/events surrounding the accident. My family and I had a very positive experience with Mike and a successful outcome that has helped to bring closure for a great loss we have endured. I highly recommend Mike and his law firm.

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 reconstructed 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 has an excellent technical understanding of the law. What distinguishes him from too many other lawyers is his ability to translate complicated information in a "user friendly" manner from the client's point of view. Terry Rubino is a tough competitor with the highest ethical standards. The primary observation that should be stated is that Mr Rubino takes a sincere interest in what is best for the client...at all times. He has never over engineered a case that he or his firm has worked on for us. His focus is to get the best result for the client without wasting a dime of their money.
