A formidable advocate who delivers results with integrity

When our family faced a complex and emotionally charged medical malpractice case, we were referred to Craig Tobin. From our initial consultation, his depth of knowledge was immediately apparent. He didn't just take our case; he immersed himself in the intricate medical details, demonstrating the analytical rigor his reputation is built upon. With over four decades of experience, including his recognized work in plaintiff-side medical malpractice, Craig provided a level of strategic foresight we couldn't have found elsewhere. He navigated the pre-trial negotiations with a masterful blend of tenacity and pragmatism, securing a settlement that far exceeded our expectations without the need for a protracted trial. Beyond his legal acumen, which is clearly nationally recognized, Craig and his team at Tobin & Muñoz treated us with genuine compassion and kept us thoroughly informed at every turn. His professionalism is unmatched, and his commitment to his clients is absolute. For anyone in the Chicago area needing a seasoned litigator in general practice, whether for civil or criminal matters, Craig D. Tobin is the attorney you want in your corner.
