About Us

For over 35 years, our definition of success has always involved being the Chicago business litigation lawyers that clients and other attorneys turn to when they need to resolve a complex legal issue at the negotiating table or in the courtroom.

Over the years, we've achieved winning verdicts or settlements by mastering the facts and law and then obtaining damaging admissions through cross-examination of the opposing witnesses. With each case, we've gained valuable knowledge and insights.

We serve a range of clients, including individuals as well as businesses seeking assistance in navigating complicated legal disputes.

The lawyers at Lubin Austermuehle have experience handling not only high-stakes business litigation but also cases for individuals including defamation cases, libel lawsuits, non-compete agreement, and trade secret theft cases, consumer fraud, dealer and franchise termination, civil rights cases and more.

With a focus on complex commercial litigation and class actions, our strong work ethic and commitment to improvement have resulted in a track record of success. Our attorneys have served as lead or co-lead counsel in hundreds of contested or settlement class actions not only in Illinois but nationwide. We've also successfully defended finance companies, national banks, mobile home chains, large apartment complexes, marketing firms, and corporations in "bet-the-company" class action lawsuits with hundreds of millions of dollars in claimed damages.

We've helped owners in closely held business disputes recover millions of dollars in business separation, fraud and breach of fiduciary duty cases.

Additionally, our Chicago trial lawyers have assisted in establishing or strengthing important consumer and franchise protection statutes. We've helped consumers across the nation achieve justice guiding them through complicated individual or class-action cases.

Lubin Austermuehle's victories continue to attract new clients and have earned us numerous accolades: For example, Crain's Chicago Business ranked the settlement Peter Lubin reached as co-lead counsel in the Erickson v. SBC class action case as the third highest settlement in Illinois that year. Our predecessor firm received the first DuPage County "Law Firm of Year" award for our devotion to the ideals of the legal profession.

We always keep our promise to deliver important victories and effect significant change for our clients as well as our community. Lubin Austermuehle consistently delivers the highest quality services with a level of personal consideration that many larger law practices lack.
