History

On January 27, 1981, Rubin Law’s founder, Brian Rubin, had his second of three children, Mitchell, born. Mitch has Autism among other diagnosed special needs. The birth of Mitch changed the lives of Brian and his wife, Linda. For Brian, an attorney, his professional life, as well as his personal life, took a “fork in the road”.

Before Mitch’s birth, since 1976, Brian had been in private practice, concentrating on Estate Planning, Estate Administration, Tax Planning, and Business Law.

Since 1981, with Mitchell’s birth, Brian’s practice became dedicated to appropriate “Special Needs Future Planning” (SNFP) for his fellow Illinois parents and families of children and adults with special needs. This includes Estate Planning, Estate & Trust Administration, Special Needs Trusts, OBRA 93 Trusts, Adult Guardianship Proceedings, Government Benefits Planning, Guidance on Residential and Day Services, Transition Planning, and related matters.

In 2010, Brian’s youngest son, attorney Benjamin (Benji) Rubin, joined the practice.
