Exceptional Attorney & Staff—Compassionate, Knowledgeable, and Dedicated

I highly recommend Attorney Alex Villatte and the entire team at Ruhl Law. Dealing with criminal charges against my sons was an incredibly difficult and stressful time as a mother, but the support we received made all the difference. Attorney Villatte has been compassionate, highly knowledgeable, and... exceptionally responsive, even returning calls and emails after business hours. He is dedicated, honest, and took the time to clearly explain every step. I also want to specifically recognize Makinzie, the legal receptionist/assistant. She was an absolute pleasure to interact with. Makinzie was always very kind, caring, friendly, and helpful, never seeming too busy to talk or answer questions. Her positive and supportive attitude truly made every interaction smoother. Ruhl Law is incredibly lucky to have Makinzie as such a valuable asset on their team. If you are looking for dedicated, ethical, and compassionate legal counsel with a supportive staff, I recommend Ruhl Law!

Client in criminal and civil

Mr. Ruhl is one of the best and most knowledgeable attorneys that I have had the pleasure of dealing with. He expedites his cases in a very timely matter and is very compassionate to all parties included in the case, especially the family members. I have used him in criminal cases and civil cases and... he has always been right there to help get things taken care of with professionalism and respect. I would recommend him to anyone in need of the best criminal and civil lawyer from south florida to long island NY. He has got my cases dropped from D.U.I to reckless driving and twice I had no bond and he was able to get me a bond of 10,000 on one and 20,000$ on the next. He is not only a great lawyer but a great person and truly cares so if your looking for that lawyer that most people believe don't exist don't hesitate to call Rick Ruhl
