Thorough & Keeps You Updated

My husband and I searched for a new lawyer locally who offered weekend hours. David was flexible about timing. He kept us updated as to where our paperwork was in process, did not hesitate to reach out with questions or when he needed additional information. Our paperwork was handled during the COVID... pandemic, and although it was delayed for everyone's safety, David made arrangements to sign paperwork outside -- problem solving at its best, despite being an atypical setting or set of circumstances. David was accommodating to include everything we wanted in our Wills and did his homework when necessary to be sure everything was just right. Very low-key, very pleasant.

Social Security Disability

David was my lawyer for my disability case. He was great. I don't usually trust lawyers but I found I could put my trust in David.

Great help, highly recommend!

My mother needed a lawyer as she applied for Social Security Disability and was denied twice. We met with David Rubel who helped us with the appeal and the trial. I am grateful we had him with us at the trial as it was intimidating to speak in front of the judge. We also used Mr. Rubel’s services ...for creating a living will, power of attorney, and healthcare proxy for my mother. The process was very quick and easy. I would recommend Mr.Rubell’s services.

Highly recommended

Mr. Rubel assisted me with a business matter. He was receptive to my input and did an excellent job.

This guy is a great SSI/SSDI attorney!

I knew that I'd need to hire an attorney to handle my SSI and SSDI case; the process is just so overwhelming and lengthy. I am fortunate to have consulted with and hired David Rubel to coordinate and present my case. He knew every in-and-out, organized a mind-boggling amount of medical records, orc...hestrated such an intelligent case. Though I would certainly prefer not to be disabled - I am only 55 and I loved my career - I am beyond words with joy that I will be awarded with SSI and SSDI! There is no way I could have handled this without David Rubel's skills, knowledge, and warm personality.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
