About Mark
Biography
The Rubin Law Firm has been practicing and litigating cases in Okaloosa County, Walton County, Santa Rosa County, Escambia County, Bay County, and surrounding counties for over 21 years. My law firm offers skilled representation and advice in all family law and divorce matters as well as advice and services in connection with prenuptial agreements, restraining orders, civil litigation, wills, contracts, landlord/tenant, criminal law and obtaining Judgments. We offer military, police and firefighter's discounts to employees and their spouses. We are conveniently located near Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field, Duke Field.
Mark S. Rubin was recently appointed as the Child Support Hearing Officer for the First Judicial Circuit and thus the Rubin Law Firm does not currently litigate divorce or family law matters in Okaloosa, Walton, Escambia or Santa Rosa Counties. However, the Rubin Law Firm still prepares prenuptial agreements, quit claim deeds, warranty deeds, wills, living wills, powers of attorney, and health care directives at very reasonable prices.

I highly recommend this attorney - he is excellent
Negotiated my divorce over and over again with a difficult attorney and ended up getting my child support significantly reduced because I am currently unemployed, got a needed lump sum payment to me for half the equity in the house, and incredibly liberal time-sharing (and shared transportation) with...
Mark Scott Rubin's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have argued quite a few cases where Mark Rubin has been opposing counsel. Mark is always prepared and knows the law very well. When I have a family question that I need an answer to Mark is my "go-to" guy. I have no hesitation in my endorsement."
"Mark and I have known each other for longer than either of us is likely willing to admit. We have been opposite each other often, collaborated occasionally, and in general seen each other working cases in the courtroom, in mediation, and out of the courtroom. I often refer prospective clients I cannot assist to Mark. He has my highest recommendation."
"I endorse Mark Scott Rubin. Mark is an excellent family law attorney. Although he is highly intelligent, he has significant common sense and perspective which allows him to stand in the shoes of his clients and fully understand what such clients are going through during difficult times. He also has an innate ability to see eye to eye with the court and is great to have on your side if you are facing contentious issues."
"I endorse this lawyer.He is an excellent attorney, always well prepared."
"I endorse this lawyer. Indeed, I offer an unreserved endorsement of Mr. Rubin and his staff. Mr. Rubin has an intellect, skill set and command of the law that I envy.. As a fellow attorney, I can state with confidence that Mr. Rubin has earned the respect, admiration and trust of fellow members of the legal community. It is also my opinion, based on first hand observation and experience, that Mr. Rubin has earned the same reputation with the court system and the judges in the Panhandle area. I routinely consult with Mr. Rubin for advise on complex family law and child support matters that must be addressed in order to resolve my clients' non-family law related cases. I have found his expertise to be of great value to me and my trust has never been misplaced. It is for these reasons that I entertain no hesitation whatsoever in referring all of my potential family law cases in that area to Mr. Rubin's firm. He has my unqualified vote of confidence and trust."
