THE BEST

Today I had an appointment to see attorney Neil Ruskin for a free consultation. Neil spent 2 hours discussing my boyfriend’s criminal case with me. Neil took the time to speak to my boyfriend’s mother on the phone also. I came to see Neil for an evaluation.Neil is a very knowledgeable, kind, sincere ...attorney. Neil has the background and the knowledge that I was looking for. I have to speak to my boyfriend’s mother to decide what we intend to do about Neil. Neil took the time to discuss everything, I am confident that Neil’s background is what we need. I intend to get back to Neil with any question I have regarding my boyfriend’s case. Neil is an excellent lawyer who bends over backwards to help.
