Minnillo Law Group

What Minnillo Law Group does

Minnillo Law Group Co., LPA is a privately held law firm founded in 2007 by Paul J. Minnillo and headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. The firm operates as a registered limited liability partnership under Ohio law and delivers attorney-based legal services across seven practice areas: personal injury, car accidents, criminal defense, DUI/OVI defense, bankruptcy, Social Security Disability, and class actions. Services are delivered through three physical offices in the Cincinnati metropolitan area (Hyde Park, Eastgate, and Fairfield), serving clients throughout Ohio and Kentucky with free consultations and, for injury matters, 24/7 availability.

The business model is bifurcated by practice area. Personal injury and car accident work is performed on a contingency fee basis — clients pay no attorney fees unless the firm recovers compensation. Criminal defense and bankruptcy matters are billed via retainer fees with payment plan options. The firm's GTM motion is sales-led, relying on direct outreach (phone, website contact forms), community reputation accumulated over 25+ years, client referrals, content marketing (a blog archive dating to 2012), and active social media engagement on Facebook, Twitter/X, and LinkedIn. The website and digital marketing are powered by FindLaw (Thomson Reuters).

The firm is founder-led, with Paul J. Minnillo as Managing Partner and Andrew L. Ruben as Partner, supported by one Of Counsel attorney and two associates. The team holds multiple industry recognitions including Super Lawyers selections, National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40, and Cincinnati Bar Association 100% Club membership. Minnillo Law Group maintains NACBA membership for 2026-2027, reflecting continued investment in the bankruptcy practice. The firm has no disclosed parent company, external funding, subsidiaries, or M&A activity, and operates as an independent regional practice.
