Client Reviews - Part 2

We are so incredibly fortunate to have found the law firm of Lubin Austermuehle. From our initial consultation call, we knew that this was a firm that exuded professionalism and expertise. They have a wide array of legal experience and it definitely comes across in both their verbal and written communications. Peter Lubin and Jason Shanfield are extremely caring and compassionate people who respect their clients and value them as people. In addition, they are very understanding of the financial impact that lawsuits have on people and were sensitive to working with our budget. Their invoices are extremely detailed and clients can feel assured that they know exactly what they are being billed for. Peter and Jason have excellent communication skills and gave us regular updates during our time working together. Their writing skills were exceptional. We felt confident as events unfolded that we were in very capable hands. They were the one bright spot out of all the stress that we felt. We highly recommend this firm to anyone looking for legal representation.

I purchased a 2017 certified pre-owned car from a dealer in Chicago suburbs. From the day one I had a feeling something is not right with how the car drives since I owned the exact car which is 2016 model. After taking it to multiple dealers and not getting anything positive out of it, I took it to certified Collison center and was told this car has been in accident and bumper and fender was repainted which was not disclosed to me during the sale. I contacted the dealer and after hearing no response after couple of weeks, I looked online for good attorney and found Peter. He took my case as soon he heard my version of story and assigned me a certified expert engineer to test drive the car. The engineer concluded that this vehicle has been in an accident and has a Frame damage which makes the vehicle ineligible for being sold as certified pre-owned. Peter handled my case and got the settlement in no time including the transportation costs from out of state, all the loan payment installments including interest paid till date and extra compensation for defrauding done by dealer. I highly recommend peter for cases involving dealer fraud because he won't stop fighting until he wins.

I've know Peter Lubin personally and professionally for several years. He's a person I hold in the highest regard due to his professionalism and honesty. There is no other person you want on your side as a business acquaintance and friend. I highly recommend Peter Lubin and his firm!

- Anthony G.


Talk about legal advocates who not only hear you, Peter and his partner not only hear you, they listen! Their integrity and professionalism are approve reproach. Their track record is exceptional for successful and lucrative wins on behalf of their clients. Having had personal experience dealing with LA, I can vouch for their focus on two critically important things: results and relationships. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.

- James Ardito


I reached out to Pete Lubin about an issue my company was dealing with. He listened carefully to me, made sound recommendations for us, and followed up very promptly. I truly appreciate their company's assistance.

- Elizabeth O.


I was in a unique situation that required me to find well versed and talented representation that could provide the help that I needed in a complicated legal matter. What I anticipated being an incredibly desperate and stressful experience concluded with success because I found the right Lawyer, Peter Lubin. I found everything I was seeking in Peter Lubin, who is an experienced and intelligent Attorney that took time to understand my needs, consistently obtained key information on my case, and did an excellent job of keeping me updated on developments along the way. Peter is a highly responsive, exceedingly patient, true professional that is pleasant to work with. Peter Lubin's profound and insightful knowledge of employment law is remarkable, and his approach to my case facilitated a strong position for me. I am extremely pleased and satisfied with the results.

- Craig E.


I worked with Peter Lubin on a case involving dealer fraud regarding one of the McLarens I purchased this year. Peter was super communicative and even started the dialogue with me over a holiday weekend to get the details he needed to get the ball rolling on my case. He connected me with an expert witness to inspect the vehicle, had a report drafted, consolidated all of the ads and communications with the dealer, and put together a suit. With Peter's due diligence, we quickly settled with the dealer that had sold me the vehicle. I definitely recommend working with Peter Lubin if you are in a situation regarding dealer fraud, he genuinely has your best interests at heart.

- Vincent S.


Outstanding Job, quick & to the point. Delivered the exact results he said he would in an extremely efficient and timely manner.

We are an international firm, our credibility is of the utmost importance to us, Peter Lubin and his firm helped us maintain that credibility on an International scale, which to us, is priceless!!

Thank you!!!

- N S.


Have met and worked with many attorneys in course of my business life. Working with Peter was a pleasant surprise. The knowledge, compassion, understanding of clients need and circumstances is rare to find in todays attorneys which Peter brings along with his keen knowledge of law and professionalism.I thank him for all his guidance and support in making right decisions at a right time in winning the case!

- Mehul S.


Lubin Austermuehle is a powerhouse of legal talent. If you want a firm to represent you that is intellectually talented handling almost any facet of litigation from large complex class action suits to personal individual consumer fraud cases, this is the firm. Most important, they will not treat you like a meal ticket charging you every time you call them, or they call you. When I was seeking to hire someone to represent me, I researched about 50 firms and reviewed the resumes of the attorneys and the cases they tried before I made my decision. The credentials and experience of this firm really stood out compared to their peers. They are a very unique legal boutique with the sophistication and breadth of experience commensurate with large law firms. They really care about their clients and decision making is guided by what is best for the client.

Peter Lubin would call me almost every week to see how I was doing and give me an update on my case. It was a horrible time in my life and Peter really helped support me and he never charged me for these calls. Patrick Austermuehle was another lawyer from this firm that worked on my case. He is very astute and genuinely cares about his clients. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case and impressed with the legal work performed by Lubin Austermuehle. I would highly recommend them.

- Lynn S.


Peter Lubin and Patrick Austermuehle represented me in a complicated medical/business lawsuit. Peter and his team are not only personable and very professional, but they are also extremely competent litigators.

I got to know Peter and his team very well over the 3 years of litigation in my case. The team is very sharp and talented. They spent the time to really understand the minute details of my case. I felt they were entirely committed. The opposing party threw numerous legal curveballs during litigation. Peter and his team successfully navigated all of them. I was astounded at Peter and his team's preparation and skill in deposing members of the opposing party. Peter is very aggressive when he needs to be. I really felt I had hired the best lawyers to represent me.

Peter even did research and kept in contact with me regarding my case during his vacation! I felt very reassured that Peter was only a phone call away. Anytime I thought of something regarding my case, I did not hesitate to call. He always got back to me if he could not take my call.

My case was settled just before trial and I received 100% of my claim. In addition, all my legal fees were paid by the opposing party.

I recommend Peter Lubin, Patrick Austermuehle and their team without hesitation!

I year ago I found myself in a terrible situation created by a former friend of mine who took advantage of my kindness, as well as my family resources and frustrated me to the point of blasting her actions on line by sending a warning message to the rest of my friends within my ethnic community. Unfortunately, my actions gave the opportunity for the same disgruntled and greedy individual to file a libel case against me claiming a defamation of character and all kinds of unsubstantiated damages. First I turned for legal assistance to a neighborhood friend who had good intentions, but very little experience with the libel law. After a few months, I quickly realized that using someone unexperienced could cost me a lot more in the long run, so I took the time to research my options and decided to contact Peter Lubin and his L-A Law firm. Peter immediately tried to help me (even before I had retained his services). I was very impressed of his prompted and caring approach. From the first conversation that I had with Peter I could feel that he had my best interest in mind. He was knowledgeable, honest with my options, and extremely genuine with his time. It took me another month after my initial conversation with Peter to convince myself to switch my legal representation from our family friend, to the professional L-A law firm with proven track record and vast experience with cases such as mine, but I am so glad that I did! Once Peter Lubin and Jason Shanfield took over my representation, my case turned around 180 degrees. Suddenly my defense turned from "stale" (with multiple extensions) to an aggressive and effective representation that led to the dismissal of my case after only one written motion.

The results were simply amazing, especially after I had been told by multiple attorneys that these cases take years to resolve. Fortunately, the clever and impeccable motion written by Jason Sheffield and reviewed by Peter Lubin made it impossible for the opposing side to continue further with their case and led to their voluntary withdraw from this frivolous case. Jason Sheffield graciously yet vigorously defended my case seeking justice for me during the proceedings and pushing tirelessly for the best possible outcome. Both Peter and Jason took the time to explain every step of the process, as well as the possible risks and outcomes. They were both patient and understanding with the decisions made by me as their client providing their genuine advice without imposing their opinion. Although my case was not dismissed with prejudice, I feel comfortable about the possibility of another claim filed against me within the next year, because I have Jason and Peter ready to raise against the challenge beside me should this issue resurface again. The law is a passion for these two attorneys and unlike others, they don't count every second, but instead they make sure that all your needs are well taken care of. Peter had advised me on additional issues beyond the label law for which I am extremely grateful. I am beyond pleased with the results delivered by this outstanding legal team. Therefore, I would strongly recommend both: Peter Lubin and Jason Shanfield to anyone who needs experienced, efficient, and genuine team of attorneys who will provide the savviest legal advice and take immediate actions to protect their clients' interests and well-being. Choosing anyone else to represent you in a libel case would be a costly mistake. They are the best in the Chicago area.

- Iva Lesnik


I really appreciate this opportunity to highly recommend Peter Lubin of the Law Offices of Lubin Austermuehle. I remember about a year ago considering that I might be involved in litigation. This led me to search Google for a lawyer as most people would do. I saw the law offices of Lubin Austermuehle which specialized in the problem I had. I called Mr. Lubin by phone and left a message. He returned my call a short time later. We discussed my case over the phone and I was impressed with Mr. Lubin's insight and experiences. Although I really didn't know him my "instincts" told me this was the right person. Unfortunately, my fears came true and I was eventually sued in federal court months later. When I contacted Mr. Lubin again there was no hesitation that he would take the case. He guided me through the initial paperwork and fees and then did all the required notifications involving my insurance company. Mr. Lubin also asked me to send him the paperwork I had and reviewed same. He then started the process of representing me in court. He filed his appearance as the attorney of record and then set about defending me. Not only did Mr. Lubin defend me in the lawsuit, per se, but he also worked on dealing with my insurance company.

During this process Mr. Lubin contacted me numerous times via text, phone, and email. He and his staff were well prepared for the work that was required. Mr. Lubin made me feel like I was the only one that he was representing. He was thoughtful, professional, and particular mindful of how all this would be affecting me. When it came to his fees he was considerate that monies would have to come from me and not my insurance company. He specifically counseled me to talk to my wife and family to see how his fees could be paid. He was never pushy about this. He allowed me to pay him a set amount over time. When I got discouraged he consistently encouraged me to have faith that I would prevail. He never promised that I would win but he did promise that he would not give up or abandon me. This was absolutely true. I also want to say that Mr. Lubin could not have done all this without his partner, associates, and staff. The staff at Lubin Austermuehle are fantastic. I get updates from them frequently, and yes, I also get the invoices. But they are very kind about it.

I want to let you know that the law offices of Lubin Austermuehle were successful in defending me when I was sued. A federal judge dismissed the case, I believe, as a direct result of the superior legal briefs that Mr. Lubin and company developed. Mr. Lubin is a very aggressive attorney. Aggressive in the sense of defending his clients. I didn't sleep so well during all this but I did sleep better knowing that Lubin Austermuehle and their superior staff were working for me.

- Gerald M.


Peter Lubin is a stand up lawyer who can be trusted. Peter helped me negotiate a settlement for a family member who was unfortunately swindled in a transaction that violated the law. Peter provided advisory because he didn't like what he heard and wanted to help - he was under zero obligation to do this, but he did it anyway. We are incredibly grateful for Peter's time, generosity and most importantly his expertise. I would recommend Peter to anyone who needs legal help.

Dan O.


I had Peter represent me in a complicated business matter. He successfully took it to trial and won the case getting me 100% of what we had claimed at outset.

Peter came across as very competent, professional during the initial stages. But it was during the trial that I really came to know him. He was cunning as a fox, aggressive as a tiger and very meticulous in planning.

He and his partner Patrick dug very deep to get all the facts of the case and caught the defendants committing perjury on several occasions.

He was very approachable, giving me his personal cell. I called him on several occasions on weekends or nights and he would call back right away.

I have had experience with other lawyers, but he is easily the best

- Fazal M.


I do not usually write reviews, but I was very impressed with Peter. I asked him to review an employment contract and he responded immediately. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, and he answered all of my questions clearly and honestly. Would strongly recommend.

- Eric Q.


Peter was really nice and helpful when I came to him with an initial question about a non-compete. Would definitely reach out again, recommended to everyone.

- Johannes B.


Peter Lubin helped me know what direction to go with my case. He was absolutely helpful. Would recommend him to anyone.

- Jessica M.


Peter is very professional and responded very quickly to request. He is very good at what he does. Provided me with great advice and is very easy to work with and talk to.

- Senad M.


Reached out to them recently and they provided me with guidance on a contract, and I was very impressed. Candid feedback and recommendations based on their years of experience. They don't sugarcoat things, which I appreciate!

- Jill M.


Peter Lubin is an outstanding trial attorney. He represented our company in an employment matter and was able to guide us to a good resolution in a short amount of time. He is aware of the burden that legal expenses can have on a small business and manages his involvement accordingly. His preference is toward negotiated solutions but is very skilled in the courtroom, should that become necessary. Highly recommended.

- Ken B.


I contacted Peter Lubin at Lubin Austermuehle using the free consultation service on their website to discuss a potential consumer fraud case. Within minutes he promptly replied and we immediately set up a time to talk about my situation the next day. He did an excellent job discussing my options and how best to proceed.

- Jim J.


Pete was so easy to work with, providing me with a quality experience that was transparent, fast, and at fair price. His level communication made me feel comfortable throughout the process.

- Derek C.


We found Peter via a Google search in Chicago. He responded quickly via our online inquiry (even on a weekend). He was very responsive throughout our contact with him & always kept us in the loop with what was happening. We were able to settle our dispute without going to arbitration or a hearing. Peter had good contacts in the business and was well versed with how to handle every part of the process. Thanks Peter!

- Craig S.


"Peter and his team helped us with an auto fraud case. They communicated well (timely and very responsive), investigated deeply, and negotiated a very good settlement. We were able to resolve our significant issue without a large burden and in a manner that allowed for us to come out ahead. I'd recommend Peter and his team strongly!"

- R.J. Callahan


Excellent knowledge on the subject matter. Quick response when requesting a consultation. Their office expertly weighed my options and came up with a plan to help me.

- Dillz41 F.


Peter Lubin is always happy to speak with anyone I send his way, and to help to explain the merits of their situation. He is incredibly gracious in this way. It is part of Peter's nature to deal honestly and generously. Peter simply cannot be anything other than himself. He is engaged and up-to-date on what is happening in the courts, and I know him to be a relentless advocate for his clients. But he also does not seek out a battle unnecessarily. Peter looks for the most effective ways to achieve the right results in his clients' best interests.

- Jessica L. Oldani


Legal team acts as an extension to your business and a true advocate. I know I can count on them for proper business and legal advice.

- Kevin Rubin


I called Peter Lubin for a legal matter concerning a nasty libel case I was dealing with. First Mr. Lubin returned my call quickly, he spoke with me at length and was very knowledgeable. Lubin Austermuehle was helpful & generous with their time. Mr. Lubin went ABOVE and BEYOND calling, emailing and texting advice and his thoughts. I HIGHLY recommend Lubin Austermuehle.

- Northwest Indiana Concrete Cutting


Through a very positive recommendation, I was referred to Peter Lubin a Chicago Non-compete agreement attorney. Peter was a great help in navigating the specifics of a very broad Non-disclosure/Non-compete agreement from a former employer. He was able to quickly address specific questions I had and gave me clarity of what I can and cannot do and an understanding of the implications moving forward. I would recommend his insight for anyone trying to figure out what their NDA actually means.

- Gary C.


I purchased, over the internet, a high value pre-owned Porsche from a non-Porsche franchise dealer. The seller did not disclose to me prior body shop repair to the front of my car. With Peter's guidance I reached a fair and amicable settlement with the dealer that reflected the diminished value of my vehicle due to the prior damage. Peter knows automobile dealer fraud and consumer protection laws. His advice helped me reach a fast and fair settlement while avoiding a lengthy, expensive and stressful litigation process.

- Bill Smythe


I conducted a consultation with Peter regarding my non-compete and he was extremely helpful. He clearly had significant experience in the area and was very well-spoken and intelligent. He also clearly had my interests at heart as well as he only encouraged litigation when he thought it was in my best interest. Would definitely recommend to anyone I know.

- Belino Xhafa


Peter is an excellent attorney and was able to guide me through a non-compete/trade secret lawsuit. He provided incredible support and was able to provide a positive result very efficiently. I strongly recommend calling Peter first for any non-compete/trade secret issues

- Peter D.


Peter Lubin is an excellent, thoughtful and dedicated attorney. His counsel is invaluable in seemingly impossible situations and having him in your corner is a huge advantage. He thinks of every possible scenario and truly works to achieve the best possible outcome.

- Amita G.


Peter is a superb attorney. Brilliant litigator with enormous professional integrity.

- Guy D.


Last year I had a situation where money was owed to my business and was not being paid back.

I sat down with my new hero, Peter Lubin. He mapped out a strategy, executed it just as discussed, and the whole amount owed was paid back.

You are in excellent hands with Peter Lubin as your lawyer. I am so glad he was in my corner. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a litigator.

- Jackie M.


Peter Lubin represented me in commission dispute involving a sizable chunk of money that my employer was trying to avoid paying. Peter took over after my former lawyer had mishandled the case with a combination of creativity and a tough negotiation strategy he helped turn the case around and we obtained settlement. He spent a lot of uncompensated time helping to come up with the successful strategy. I highly recommend Peter and his firm.

- Philip M.


On a number of occasions our firm has had the pleasure of referring matters, clients, and a variety of issues to Patrick Austermuehle. The results, the interaction, and the skill level has been nothing short of extraordinary and we have thoroughly enjoyed each interaction with Pat and his firm. He is, without a doubt, one of the finest business dispute lawyers in the Chicago-metro area and I recommend him without hesitation.

- Jonathan H.


I bought a vehicle 1,000 miles from my home relying on the car dealer's assurances that it was like new. When the vehicle arrived at my home, I immediately noticed several serious flaws. I called the dealer and they were unwilling to accept the vehicle back under any circumstance. After trying for weeks to get an attorney to represent me I was losing hope that the situation would get resolved. After some more searching online, I came across Peter Lubin's firm and spoke to his assistant about my situation. Peter personally returned my call the same day and agreed to take my case. He referred me to an auto expert who examined the vehicle and found significant frame damage and previous substandard repairs. Peter also tried to get the dealer to unwind the transaction before filing the lawsuit, but they still were unwilling. After the suit was filed, he knew what documents to request from the dealer and who to subpoena to get the evidence needed to prove that the dealer knew the car had been seriously damaged and that they concealed this information from me. The dealer offered a settlement that would have left me out of pocket several thousand dollars. On Peter's suggestion we rejected the offer and a few weeks later, the dealer settled for the full amount. Peter is an excellent consumer fraud attorney and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone else that finds themselves in a similar situation

- David B.


In January of this year, a nuisance lawsuit filed by pro se plaintiffs landed on my door. I was stunned and distraught. I cannot give details, but their claims against me were outrageous. I had also just recently gotten engaged and wanted to be spending my spare time with my fiancé planning my wedding, not fending off a nuisance suit.

I called Peter Lubin and he picked up the phone even though it was after 9 PM on a Friday night. Peter and his colleague, handled my case expertly. They caught the plaintiffs on numerous mistakes and adroitly used those mistakes to my advantage. I'm an intelligent person, I love to argue, and I've often been told that I missed my true calling as an attorney, but I can't even begin to say how glad I was that I called Peter and didn't try to handle my case myself. I (like the plaintiffs) would have made so many mistakes had I gone pro se.

Peter got the case against me dismissed with prejudice just 2.5 months after I was served, leaving me free to plan my wedding in peace. That's what you call "results."

- Bridget Jack J.


Peter Lubin and his staff were remarkably helpful and performed above and beyond our expectations when dealing with potential consumer fraud on our behalf. My husband and I first discussed our case with Peter during a phone consultation. He and his staff did some preliminary research before agreeing to take on our case. He and his staff met with us in person to discuss all our options and the realistic outcomes if we were to hire them. After officially hiring Peter Lubin and his team, they continued to work at a remarkable pace and achieved a settlement on our behalf. Even when respondent put up obstacles, they continued to work tirelessly in our favor. We were able to settle our legal issue quickly with the best possible outcome. Peter Lubin and his staff were very professional and I don't think our results would have been as positive without their hard work. We would recommend their business to anyone in need of litigation counsel.

- Katrina L.


A great firm with attorneys who truly fight for their clients. Peter Lubin was on the case at all hours and made my interests a priority. All stars that I would have represent me time and again. Great job guys!

- Mark Z.


I was referred to Peter Lubin from someone in the car business to handle a lawsuit. From the moment I made the appointment Peter and his staff were outstanding. This wasn't an easy case, most lawyers had turned me down. However, Peter took the time to meet with me and review everything. He took on the case and constantly communicated with me about updates and case information. We beat this non-compete agreement case in record time. I would use him again and recommend him to my closest family and friends. 5 stars is not enough to thank him for his service.

- Sebastian R.


When I found myself in need of legal counsel, I was referred to Lubin Austermuehle by a colleague. I had met with several other firms, and I knew from our first meeting that this firm was the right choice. Peter Lubin was our lead attorney and his professionalism and strategic thinking is second to none. It was truly a David vs. Goliath scenario as the Company I was up against had seemingly unlimited resources and a $1,200/hr. firm working on their behalf. It just goes to show that brains win over brawn. Peter and his team wouldn't be intimidated. They outmaneuvered the other side at every turn over a 9 month period, eventually forcing a favorable settlement without going to trial.

I felt like Peter was personally invested in my case, and it showed through in his honesty, the countless hours discussing strategy, connecting with the appropriate experts, and his no-nonsense attitude when it came to dealing with opposing counsel.

It's a scary thing to find oneself in need of legal representation. Peter and his team put all of my doubts at rest from our first meeting. They are a formidable firm with quality people. I highly recommend this firm to anyone finding themselves or their business in need of legal representation. They will be my first choice in the future. Gold Standard.

- Charles B.


Never having the need to consult a law firm before to defend ourselves in a small business/family dispute it was VERY overwhelming. Not knowing where to go or who to call, we took the advice of our daughter who did the internet research (Because that's what young adults do these days) I was hesitant but I knew I need to call to face this issue as it was not going to go away by itself. I had called and left a brief explanation of my situation with a woman who answered the phone and within an hour Mr. Lubin had returned my call. We discussed the situation for 45 minutes over the phone and made a follow-up appointment with him at his office that lasted a good hour or more that he included in his free consultation, which was very much appreciated. As our situation was very complicated Mr. Lubin decided it would be in OUR best interest to take another route- although he could have decided to "take our money" leading to costing us thousands of dollars. We are very grateful for his honesty and directing us in OUR best interest and not only seeing the $$ signs. Based on my experience, I hope I never need to but I would definitely use and recommend this firm.

- Gina G.


I worked on two occasions with Peter Lubin and his staff. They took their time with me and discussed each and every item in detail. The group makes you feel like you are part of the family and not just another hourly charge. I recommend Peter to anyone who asks me for a referral. If you are looking for a top-notch attorney at a reasonable rate, look no further than Lubin Austermuehle.

- Kurt A.


Peter Lubin and Patrick Austermuehle represented my company in a lawsuit, they were extremely professional, and possibly the most competent attorneys I have ever worked with. Their research was outstanding, they were always on time, answered calls or emails promptly, and provided time and cost estimates accurately.

It was a pleasure working with them both.

- Gary B.


Peter Lubin and folks at Lubin Austermuehle law office are very professional and quick to respond. We called them with a request for the consultation and 2 hours later we were sitting at the table reviewing our concerns. Our consultation went really smooth and with no pressure. They reviewed our case and laid out all the options and possible scenarios before we made the decision to use their services.

They give the updates of the case even after the regular business hours which gives me feeling that they care about what they do!

Overall a pleasant experience in a tough situation.

- Kaspars M.


Excellent law firm. My case was a complicated arbitration dispute from another state. Was handled with utmost professionalism and decency. Mr. Peter Lubin was able to successfully resolve the case on my behalf and got me a very favorable settlement. Would recommend to anyone looking for a serious law firm. Great staff and great lawyers!

- Albey L.


This law firm is AMAZING!!

I sent them an email on a Sunday because I felt I was the victim of consumer fraud and was livid. Attorney Peter Lubin responded immediately, discussed my situation, and laid out my options.

He even suggested some non-legal remedies initially to avoid litigation!! Every other lawyer wanted me to sign them up immediately so they could get paid, without even having a consultation.

Peter is a great human being who cares about his clients and really put me at ease during a difficult time.

Oh, and did I mention that he was very well versed on the law? Peter ran through several different scenarios and, having substantial experience with similar cases, had a great understanding of how certain judges would rule. He really knows his stuff inside and out.

- Jim E.


I have known Peter Lubin for over 30 years. He has represented me on occasion with sound legal advice. He is a shrewd and tough negotiator leading to positive outcomes and averting prolonged legal hassles in court. He comes from a family with a legal pedigree and deep roots in Chicago's top legal community. You want him on your case. You need him on your opponent's case. He won't stop fighting until he wins.

- Christopher G.


Lubin Austermuehle has been our law firm for over 6 years, we have a growing IT services company. We have been very happy with their level of service and expertise. 1 thing I personally appreciate is they try to do whatever possible to de-escalate potential legal issues. I trust them.

- Steve M.


Peter Lubin has represented our software company for over 20 years. As general counsel of our company, I have relied upon Peter and his firm for numerous issues ranging from protecting our intellectual property rights, enforcing judgments, drafting contracts and writing correspondence. Peter brings passion and intensity to his work, and it definitely pays off for his clients.

Moreover, over the years, we have dealt with various other attorneys and staff at Lubin Austermuehle. I sincerely can say that each person with whom we have interacted has always been professional and courteous.

I highly recommend Peter Lubin and his firm.

- Melissa H.


When our business was looking for legal assistance we didn't know where to turn. When it comes to legal advice for your business it becomes a very personal matter. The team at Lubin Austermuehle came in and reviewed our existing Agreements and hand-held us through restructuring these keeping our best interests in mind. They continue to keep us informed on current news, changes to the law, and they are always available to advise. They are extremely knowledgeable and subject matter experts in their field.

As a business owner, you have enough on your plate to focus on. It's important to find a legal team that you can rely on and who makes you feel truly comfortable. Glad we found them!

- Kevin R.


I've used Peter since 2010 for a number of issues including Asset Purchase Agreements, corporate litigation, non-competes, family law and currently to challenge the constitutionality of some Illinois statutes. They are always straight to the point and don't tell you what you want to hear. I've found them to be open minded and willing to think out of the box to solve issues and usually over deliver on projected outcomes.

Will recommend and continue to use them.

- C Y.


First-rate litigators!

Strong on strategy and the law. Excellent client communication. In a dispute, Pete is certainly the guy you want on your side. Commitment is 100% to your success!

- James M.


I cannot say enough wonderful things about this firm; Peter was phenomenal! They were always available when we needed them and kept us up-to-date on what was happening. Great communication, very professional, and reliable. I would, and do, recommend this firm to anyone looking.

- Jill B.


I want to thank Lubin Austermuehle for handling our case that ended up in Chicago Federal Court, they were excellent and very professional. A special thanks to Peter Lubin who assist us and always answering our questions..very pleased with their work and more so pleased with the outcome of my case. Thank you so much!

- David B.


Peter Lubin and Patrick Austermuehle represented me in a breach of contract and a non-compete case in the medical field. Our case not only prevailed in the local circuit court, but the firm went on to defeat our opposition in the higher court of appeals swiftly on a Summary of Motion Judgment. From the beginning to end, Peter and Patrick worked tirelessly on my case. Peter and Patrick went above and beyond to get to the finish line. Their passion for law, commitment, and compassion for their clients' predicament were self-evident from day one. Also, I found impressive was when my lawyers knew the minutiae and details of my case more than I did. Their litigation skills are superb. I find their memory of the details of my case extraordinary. Their in-depth knowledge of my case and relevant laws were phenomenal, that they were keen in catching the opposing deponent on a lie or having made contradicting statements. Lastly but most definitely not the last, Mr. Lubin and Mr. Austermeuhle are notably very accessible and very prompt in answering calls. If they were not in court, I would receive an email response or return call in literally a couple of minutes (even early on a Sunday morning). These are lawyers who love their jobs and truly want to help.

I was referred to Peter Lubin from someone in the car business to handle a law suit. From the moment I made the appointment Peter and his staff were outstanding. This wasn't an easy case, most lawyers had turned me down. However, Peter took the time to meet with me and review everything. He took on the case, and constantly communicated with me about updates and case information. We beat this non-compete agreement case in record time. I would use him again and recommend him to my closest family and friends. 5 stars is not enough to thank him for his service. Sebastian R.

I worked on two occasions with Peter Lubin and his staff. They took their time with me and discussed each and every item in detail. The group makes you feel like you are part of the family and not just another hourly charge. I recommend Peter to anyone who asks me for a referral. If you are looking for a top notch attorney at a reasonable rate, look no further than Lubin Austermuehle. Kurt A.

Excellent law firm. My case was a complicated arbitration dispute from another state. Was handled with utmost professionalism and decency. Mr. Peter Lubin was able to successfully resolve the case on my behalf and got me a very favorable settlement. Would recommend to anyone looking for a serious law firm. Great staff and great lawyers!

I have known Peter Lubin for over 30 years. He has represented me on occasion with sound legal advice. He is a shrewd and tough negotiator leading to positive outcomes and averting prolonged legal hassles in court. He comes from a family with a legal pedigree and deep roots in Chicago's top legal community. You want him on your case. You need him on your opponents case. He won't stop fighting until he wins.

Peter was really nice and helpful when I came to him with an initial question about a non-compete. Would definitely reach out again, recommended to everyone. Johannes B.
