STRAIGHT SHOOTER

Today I called attorney Neil Ruskin. I spoke to Neil about a federal criminal case. Neil told me he doesn’t handle cases in CT. My case is scheduled for trial December 1. Neil gave me great advise and told me what to do. Neil told me to go to Avvo.com to find me a lawyer. I am completely satisfied a...nd appreciate the wonderful advise Neil gave me. Neil is a fabulous lawyer with incredible experience.

Great lawyer

I called attorney Neil Ruskin. I called Neil to discuss a criminal matter. Neil was very friendly , helpful and sincere. Neil told me what to do and what would happen. Neil knows the court system and is very knowledgeable. I have spoken to Neil three times and I am very happy with his advice. Neil to...ld me that the case would be dismissed by the court or by him if I hire him. I intend to stay in touch with Neil and take his advice.

Truly Wonderful Lawyer

I spoke to Neil Ruskin today about a very minor legal matter and he completely put my mind at ease with his expertise and professionalism (not to mention his compassion and good humor: what a terrific human being). Even though he assured me I had nothing to be concerned about, he took time to speak ...to me at length to assuage my fears (his many, many years of experience completely evident). He is utterly decent: I could tell right away he is tenacious, no-nonsense, and cares deeply about people. I also have to mention that by the end of our conversation he had me laughing for the first time in days (after having been through moments of nauseating worry and sleepless nights). If I (or anyone I know) am ever in need of a criminal defense attorney, Mr. Ruskin is the man; I would want him in my corner.

BEST LAWYER IN NYC

Neil Ruskin is the greatest lawyer you can hire. I had a reckless driving charge and he got it dismissed without me getting any points or a criminal record. Because of Neil I also kept my job and kept my record clean. Thanks Neil keep fighting !
