About Yechezkel
Biography
If I had to sum myself up in one sentence, I would say: I am a husband and father to 4 incredible children struggling to balance my love for my family with my love for what I do. I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Florida in 2004. Many people would be surprised to know that my first career was in the food business. As a young boy, I used to hang out in my father’s friend’s Chinese restaurant where I learned from a very young age how to cook Chinese food. I worked in various restaurants before venturing out on my own. Shortly after moving to Florida, I purchased a Thai restaurant in Sunrise, Florida that was the closest Glatt Kosher Thai restaurant to New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. Running my own business taught me lessons I could not have obtained in the best business schools in the country and that help shape my career as a lawyer on a daily basis.
After a couple disastrous storms took its toll on my clientele and as the economy took a nose-dive, I decided it was time for a change and upon my wife’s counsel, I enrolled in law school. I was fortunate to attend Florida International University (FIU) which, in just a few short years, has jumped to become one of the nation’s top 100 law schools. I began working for a consumer protection law firm in my first month of law school and stayed there for 8 years.
Despite my plans on becoming a criminal defense attorney, an opportunity opened up in the consumer protection field and before I knew it—I was hooked. Seeing the dramatically uneven playing field American consumers are forced to wrestle upon with the world’s biggest corporations, I was determined to make a change. I am proud to have been a part of shaping consumer protection law, specifically in the areas of TILA (Truth in Lending Act), FDCPA (Fair Debt Collection Practices Act), and the TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act).
Unfortunately, I see so much misinformation and a general ignorance as to people’s rights that I have made it my mission to educate consumers on how they can fight back. My goal is to provide my clients with a complete and total solution to their debt issues. Inevitably, this leads to a better quality of life, more confidence, a better marriage, and a happier client.
There is nothing more gratifying for me than seeing the look of relief wash over my client’s face as I tell her / him that I can make the harassment and phone calls stop. Actually, that is not entirely true. There is something more gratifying: Seeing the look that washes over my client’s face as I hand her / him a check a few months later.

Yechezkel Rodal's Lawyer Endorsements
"Great lawyer and go getter. Time and time again he helped out my clients on cases that we were both working on. He knows the ins and outs of consumer law so I highly endorse him."
"Yechezkel Rodal is a pioneer in the area of Consumer Protection law, helping consumers fight back against the harassment of banks, mortgage companies and other creditors. A member of the public would be hard pressed to find an attorney anywhere in the state of Florida who fights harder for their clients to get results. "Can't" is not in Yechezkel's vocabulary, he has gone up against international corporations and national lawfirms and prevailed in both State and Federal courts."
"He is dedicated and thorough as well as a passionate advocate for his clients. He knows and understands that the legal profession is truly noble only if members of the bar act in the best interests of the clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Always well prepared and knowledgeable. Excellent lawyer."
"Yechezkel is the colleague that I turn to for experience and knowledge in the arena of consumer protection. He is familiar with all aspects of this area of law and litigation and is a very reliable professional."
"If you are looking for an attorney with the utmost knowledge in consumer matters do not look any further. Mr. Rodal is a mentor in his field and his expertise is exceptional."
"Mr. Rodal is an attorney's attorney. He is the definition of what a lawyer should strive to become in every sense. He is passionate, yet thoughtful. He is a leader, yet humble enough to seriously entertain and accept the words of others. He is uncompromisingly adherent to truth and ethics of the highest order. Mr. Rodal has provided me guidance both prior to and subsequent my becoming an attorney. He has mentored me without fail and without losing his patience. He puts others before himself and recognizes that to be great means you must accept great responsibility in kind. I have loved every minute I have been blessed to work with Mr. Rodal. I have witnessed first-hand his unwavering commitment to his G-D, his family, his work, his clients and his staff. It is an honor to endorse someone of his caliber and I pray more people can meet this fine man and attorney. He can alone dispel the misconceptions many have of what attorneys are. He is truly special."
"Yechezkel a.k.a "Chezky" is among the very best of the best in the country at helping consumers fight back against any number of illegal or improper debt collection activities."
"Chezky is a young attorney that has worked for us since his first year of law school. I was always impressed by how hard he worked as a law clerk and even more so as an attorney. He is handling consumer protection claims for our firm and is going head to head with attorneys with decades of experience and doing very well. He is a great asset to our firm with a lot of wins and settlements under his belt already."
"While there are many lawyers who accept foreclosure cases few of our professional colleagues have joined us in suing banks. Rodal is one of those few. He fights hard for his clients."
