Gold Star Lawyer

II’ve know Neil for 30 years as his pest management professional at his home. Recently my son was charged with a felony. We hired Neil, he was very pro-active, advised us on every step and was able to get the charges dismissed within a short period of time. We were impressed with his dedication and e...xpertise and would recommend him highly.

The best criminal attorney one can find!

We have a serious criminal trouble in the family. After an extensive search on the Internet I've found Neil Ruskin. It was very easy to discuss with him all the details since he happened to be not only a very knowledgeable lawyer but a very nice person. Right from the get-go he literally took the bu...ll by the horns sparing neither efforts no time to help us solve our problems. His logo "I fight hard to win" is genuine.

Neil Ruskin a very responsive and competent Attorney

I have never had to hire an attorney to represent me for any reason. So when I was pulled in for questioning and told I should get a lawyer, I immediately did extensive research looking to get the best Attorney I can afford. I went to Avvo and read many reviews and also researched for any complaint...s or suspensions they may have. I called several and interviewed them – however once I contacted Neil, he immediately made me feel comfortable and made time on his schedule to see me that day. Meeting him in person and telling him my story, he immediately took the enormous fear I had away and totally made me very comfortable. I was at ease in talking with Neil and when I was questioned, knowing that he was at my side representing me. He made me feel confident and enabled me to tell my truth. I can’t say enough about Neil. I really appreciate all of his work in providing me with sound and competent legal representation. He is very knowledgeable and responsive when it came to my case and answered all my questions very quickly. He makes me feel like I am his most important client. I am very happy to have him as my legal counsel and I also feel like he is a true confidant. I will definitely recommend him to my family and friends that may need legal representation.
