A real gentleman! Great advice. Kind & respectful.

I found Neil on Avvo in search of a criminal lawyer. I called him for a free consultation. He was very respectful and funny but straight to the point. He offered me great advice, and didn't rush me when discussing the case. Unfortunately he is a bit far from the court that I need to appear in but he ...was able to recommend a colleague to help me. I will definitely keep him in mind for future cases.

Best lawyer in New York!

After speaking with nearly a dozen lawyers, I stumbled upon Neil Ruskin. Upon reading his reviews, I was a bit blown away by the reviews and testimonials he has received over his FOUR decade long career in law. I gave Neil a call and within minutes I realized his confidence, not only in my case, but ...in general, was something worth investing in. Neil assured me he would take of me and my case, promising a dismissal of the charges if I were to comply with his very simple instructions. I was in awe, every other lawyer I had consulted with told me to be wary of my case. How could every other lawyer be so on edge, yet Neil was boosting in confidence and comedic relief? I'll tell you why...experience! Neil not only fulfilled his promise but also worked with me on my budget, far exceeding my expectations. Neil Ruskin is hands down the best lawyer and only lawyer I hope to ever have to use again! Thank you Neil!

Amazing should be an understatement!

I called trying to obtain counsel for my brother, that’s currently incarcerated. I was flabbergasted when he answered his office number at 6:00 pm. He’s well experienced and very respected in his field. Yet, he’s working while other lawyers are going home around this time. I didn’t need any scheduled... appointment for a consultation, I got one right there. He was very knowledgeable about the case my brother is currently fighting. He elaborated on every aspect of the crime he was being accused of. Unfortunately, he couldn't handle the case as it’s in another state, but I will recommend him to my family and friends if they are ever arrested. He’s a very positive and optimistic person. His energy was at 100 even this late in the day. I called other lawyers and felt perturbed but felt the complete opposite with Esq. Ruskin.
