This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Real Estate Litigation

When someone is first in need of legal counsel, they are typically at a loss as to whom they should commission for sound, trustworthy representation. I was in a similar situation recently and found it quite perplexing until I was referred to Daren Rubenfeld. Initially, I did my due diligence in a...n attempt to find legal counsel outside of my location in a real estate matter. I came to realize the representation had to be of a caliber beyond opposing counsel to provide a superior level of experience, knowledge and respect. Otherwise, the other side would take advantage of my less favorable selection and ultimately cost me significantly more in the long run. After interviewing several attorneys, it was apparent that Daren was the most experienced and best suited for this litigation. From the very beginning, he took an aggressive leadership position to address the pending proceeding. Through Daren's expertise and guidance, he provided the legal counsel needed to resolve the matter in a favorable and timely fashion. What he did not do is take advantage of someone out of state by excessive time in depositions, hearings and endless proceedings to run-up the bill. I consider this to speak volumes as to ones character and integrity. The benefit of timely email updates as to the on-going status provided a sense of calm as we moved forward without uncertainty of the unknown. If you are in need of such representation, I would strongly recommend you consider this gentlemen to take charge of your case. One additional advantage in using Daren is his friendly demeanor and poised position. I very much enjoyed working with him and came to trust him to the fullest. Daren Rubenfeld is one of the few that give the legal profession the respect it deserves. Robert Donnelly

This smart, caring, affordable attorney keeps you informed by returning his own calls offering you options every step of the way

If your looking for a SMART attorney who cares, will keep you informed and will win - call Daren Rubenfeld! He is the only attorney I tell friends to use without any hesitation. If your hiring an attorney on retainer , chances are its because something is happening that is important, something y...ou need help with because your facing something that is impacting your life and can potentially change the future for your family. Anything dealing with the law is complex and often very scary, the language used is confusing and not necessarily something you can interpret on your own. Over the years I have dealt with so many attorneys for many different reasons. For the most part I've had decent representation but I found that after the initial consultation was over and the retainer was paid, my lawyer usually disappeared behind a closed door . I found most future communications then happened with the lawyers secretary. In the past I had to find out how my case was progressing from the secretary who usually could not answer my questions and would often say "I'll have to get back to you". Hiring an attorney who is smart, is a great communicator by personally returning all his own calls has been a wonderful relief. Now add into that someone who is a affordable and cares about his clients feelings - its like winning the trifecta in legal representation. The quality I appreciate the most about Daren Rubenfeld is the fact that he genuinely cares about his clients and is sensitive to the emotional drain people suffer when they are dealing with the unknown outcome of a legal battle. Mr. Rubenfeld represented me with my bank mortgage and protected me from a foreclosure. Being one of thousands who had a predatory loan who needed to navigate the road of obtaining a loan modification - a grueling journey. He was always sensitive to how the threat of loosing my home could be potentially devastating and assured me that there were always options for me to use to move me forward in a positive way. The process is an emotional roller coaster. But I felt secure in knowing my case would all work out because everything was explained to me every step of the way. I always felt I understood what was happening in my case. I was involved in being able to help make choices regarding possible strategies because options were offered to me as well as the pros and cons of each possibility. I was never was blind sided with bad news because he kept me informed telling me in advance what to expect. It is the only time I felt my attorney cared about my opinion and was sensitive to my fears including the cost of my representation. I knew Mr. Rubenfeld exhausted every option to win my case. In closing the best way I can sum up the service I received would be to say that Daren Rubenfeld worked harder and smarter for me than any other attorney I have ever had, and protected my best interest in every way possible on a budget I could afford.

Prompt and courteous a man of his word

Mr Rubenfeld was very helpful keeping me informed of developments in my case both directly via phone and via e-mail. He did what he said he would, when he said he would, which is rare. He was generous and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to be helpful.

Wonderful, Trustworthy Attorney!

Mr. Rubenfeld was very quick in handling my case and got it dismissed very fast. My case involved a wrongful eviction. He definitely handled my case with professionalism and walked me through every step of the way. If you want an attorney who will fight for you, I would not hesitate to hire Daren Rub...enfeld!

Sr. VP of Marketing - real estate - Palm Beach, FL

Being in real estate I deal with many lawyers all the time, rarely do you meet an attorney who is so knowledgeable and can present you or your client with all the options needed to make a educated decision. HIs talents range as wide as his back ground - having worked in all areas of real estate... purchases, development and management to over all business development for large scale companies to individuals - his ability and knowledge allows you to create a proactive strategy both in business matters as well as personal life planning. I first me Mr Rubenfeld while he was representing another client , I was so impressed with his abilities - i have chosen him to represnt me on many different legal issues and find him to be my "go to guy" when ever I have any questions that require a legal opinion. HIs ability to look at a situation from a birds eye view allows me to make decisions based on over all impact allowing me to have a more positive result for long term.
