• DUI/DWI
  Despite increased efforts to raise awareness about the dangers of driving under the influence, many drivers still make the decision to operate a vehicle after consuming alcohol to the point of being intoxicated beyond the legal limit. These impaired drivers have slowed reaction times and compromised hand-eye coordination, making them a danger to themselves and other motorists. Drunk driving accidents are unfortunately common and often cause serious injuries to others involved. The attorneys at the law firm of Rubin & Machado have no sympathy for those who willingly place the lives of others in danger. If you or a loved one has been injured by a drunk driver, a DUI attorney with our Chicago, IL, firm can help you pursue damages for your medical expenses, missed work, and other losses.

If you believe that your child's injury could have been prevented by the doctor or medical staff, you may have a medical malpractice case.

• Auto Accidents
• Dog Bites
  There are several common dog bite injuries, all of which can have devastating effects both physically and mentally. Dogs have very powerful bites that can break bone and severely damage the skin. If you were bitten or mauled by a dog, you may experience puncture wounds, lacerations, and other injuries to the skin. These types of wounds can result in infection or disease. Broken bones are also a common injury due to the force of the dog's bite. If an individual is attempting to flee from an attacking dog, they may fall and injure themselves. Dog bites can also cause injuries that result in permanent scarring that can affect an individual's confidence and quality of life.
