About Us

Getting hurt either at work or through third-party negligence can be a traumatic experience.

This event can result in medical bills, pain and suffering, and/or possible loss of income. During this time, you don’t deserve to be lost in the shuffle of a big firm. You need personalized legal advice you can trust.

We Advocate For You

Rubens Kress & Mulholland takes a different approach to legal services. We believe in: 

Gavel Icon

Fewer Cases

During your consultation, you’ll talk to an attorney, not a paralegal. You’ll understand your case from start to finish.

Touch point

Fewer Touchpoints

While many firms assign up to 500 files per attorney, we limit at 100 in order to provide exceptional counsel.

Faster Results

Our attorneys personally draft our motions and keep your case moving forward for quicker settlements and results. 

Success on Your Side

Every area of law is different. Different law practices demand tailored understanding of the legal intricacies in order to succeed. Instead of working in many areas, we consciously avoid overloading by focusing on two concentrations.

Each of our attorneys has over 15 years experience.
