Ari M Trubitt

Ari Trubitt is a Senior Associate Attorney at Sexner & Associates LLC and a lifelong Chicago area resident who graduated from the University of Illinois and the John Marshall School of Law. He began his legal career as an intern at the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office and soon thereafter moved to a law firm, where he began practicing all manner of criminal defense, from minor traffic offenses and misdemeanor cases to first-degree murder. Within his first two years of practice, he had already been sworn into the Federal Bar for the Northern District of Illinois, the Eastern District of Wisconsin, and the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals; a remarkable accomplishment. He has represented clients on felony charges not only in Illinois but also in Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and California, as well as in federal cases in the Central and Southern Districts of Illinois and the state of Nebraska. He brings a lifetime of experience in criminal and traffic law to the table. Over the following period of nearly 15 years, Attorney Trubitt then exclusively represented union members for all their traffic and criminal offenses, including a high volume of DUI, domestic battery, and assault cases. During this time, he also appeared on behalf of hundreds of clients in deportation (removal) hearings and other matters, using immigration knowledge that he still employs daily to assist non-citizens charged with criminal and traffic matters. A past member of the Illinois State Bar Association’s “Traffic Law and Courts Committee”, he has lectured at legal seminars and authored articles related to DUI law and the like. He has served the public as a member of the Judicial Evaluation Committee and as chairperson of the committees that evaluate candidates for judicial positions and rate them.
