Chicago, IL – February 13, 2025 – Today, Postman Law and Roden Law filed a wrongful death lawsuit in Cook County on behalf of the family of Saviay’a Robinson. The suit targets those responsible for the tragic death of Robinson in Los Angeles. Robinson supported his family as a devoted father of three small children and a hardworking entrepreneur before a violent shooting abruptly ended his life. Authorities now link his death to a federal indictment involving prominent rapper Lil Durk, legally known as Durk Banks.
That complaint alleges that, on August 19, 2022, attackers ambushed Robinson’s vehicle near West Hollywood. According to the suit, while Robinson drove with his cousin, rapper Quando Rondo, assailants executed a targeted attack near the Beverly Center and fired multiple rounds into the passenger side. Robinson suffered critical injuries, and doctors declared him dead shortly after he arrived at a local hospital.

The federal indictment alleges that Durk Banks orchestrated the murder-for-hire plot as the leader of the Chicago-based rap collective and alleged gang Only the Family (OTF). The indictment explains how Banks and his co-conspirators exploited interstate facilities to execute the murder that ended Robinson’s life. Authorities then launched further investigations into OTF’s activities, exposing a disturbing pattern of violence and retaliation under Banks’ leadership.
Warren Postman, Managing Partner at Postman Law and representative of the Robinson family, said:
“The premature loss of Mr. Robinson has devastated his family and community. We filed this lawsuit to hold those responsible accountable and to ensure his family receives the support they need during this difficult time.”
In case number XX, the lawsuit accuses the defendants of unlawful actions—including murder for hire—that resulted in wrongful death. The Robinson family seeks damages for their immeasurable loss. Warren Postman, Marquel Longtin, and Chris Livas of Postman Law, along with Joshua Dorminy of Roden Law, represent the family.
