Took my money and quit case

I don't know who is worse this lawyer or the judge who let him quit after he took my money.... his defense consists of demanding that you plead guilty and there's no other option he doesn't even meet with anybody he sends a text message complaining about my non-existent criminal record to the DA and ...then saying that I had to go get fingerprinted and plead guilty otherwise I would have to spend a week renting hotels while they sorted the case out... I said I'd take the hotels and then he quit the case ...and the judge ALLOWED him to. this man should be disbarred.

The Judge allowed me to withdraw based upon your disgusting antisemitic remarks, and noted that you "fired" me in her Order allowing withdrawal, wherein you called me, inter-alia, a "Yarmulke wearing shitbag", "Jews will not replace you", and a multitude of blood libel you got from your antisemitic sources.......THE COURT NOTED YOUR CONDUCT AND WORDS IN THE ORDER ALLOWING ME TO WITHDRAW FROM REPRESENTING YOU FOR REASONS SO OBVIOUS, STEVIE WONDER CAN SEE IT. YOU ALLEGE JEWS ARE MONEY OBSESSED, THE EVIDENCE HERE SUGGESTS YOU ARE THE ONE WITH THE PROBLEM, AS YOU ARE OBSESSED WITH $750 FROM TWO YEARS AGO. THE COURT ORDER AND YOUR ANTISEMITIC RANTS ARE ALL PUBLIC RECORD, WHICH I AM GLAD TO PROVIDE COPIES OF THESE PUBLIC RECORDS TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SEE THESE PUBLIC RECORDS TO PREVENT YOUR FILTHY LIES AND DEFAMATORY STATEMENTS ABOUT YOUR CASE, THE COURT, AND ABOUT ME. I JUST LOOKED AT AND PRINTED OUT YOUR LINKEDIN ACCOUNT, AND PERHAPS YOU CAN EXPLAIN HOW YOUR REVIEW, JEW HATRED AND ANTISEMITIC RANTS MAKE YOU "a reliable, soft spoken gentleman with excellent phone manners and sales experience." Hunter Falck Labor Ready Temporary Employee at Labor Ready... Labor Ready Ulster County Community College Jensen Beach, Florida, United States Contact info "I am a reliable, soft spoken gentleman with excellent phone manners and sales experience." YOU ALSO ALLEGE YOU HAVE NO PRIOR RECORD, BUT I JUST FOUND THIS THEFT OF DONUTS AND DANISH WHEN GOOGLING YOUR NAME THIS MORNING: ARREST: Deputies from the Ulster County Sheriff's Office report the arrest of Hunter S. Falck, 27 years old, of Box 50 42nd St, Kerhonkson, NY. On 07/02/2013 at 11:30 AM. Mr. Falck was charged with Petit Larceny (Class A Misdemeanor) On May 30th, 2013 Deputies received a report of a larceny of baked goods from the Kwik Mart in Accord. Investigation revealed that after the baked goods were delivered to the store Mr. Falck stole eight dozen bagels, two dozen sub rolls and three dozen assorted danish from the delivery location. The stolen items had a value of approximately $41.70. Mr. Falck was released on an appearance ticket to appear in the Town of Rochester Court on 07/10/2013 at 6:00 PM. IF YOU WANT TO THROW STONES, MOVE OUT OF YOUR GLASS HOUSE THIS JEW FIGHTS BACK AND WOULD LOVE NOTHING MORE THEN FOR YOU TO COME BACK TO FLORIDA, BUT YOU ARE SPINELESS✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️.

Would not recommend

Tell you lies. Was supper nice when I was in jail but soon I bonded out he acted like I was garbage and not a client. Mind you he was paid in full he insisted that I paid him a little bit of money which was what he asked for. just terrible , always want to argue with me always want to talk crap about... the prosecutor instead of actually doing something to help me and my case. Then all the sudden want to withdraw because I asked him to put in a motion, all the sudden his explanation is because of ethical reasons based of prior conversations.Save the troubles I wish I knew but when your desperate anything goes. I wish him nothing but the best but definitely will warn others. Nothing is never personal as my attorney he made everything personal , just nasty work.

The Judge Ordered Withdrawal because of rules which require this and which exist to maintain the criminal justice system, prevent fraud upon the court, and to assure equal protection of the laws and justice for all. I am proud to work within this system and adhere to these ethical standards God Bless America, God Bless the State of Florida.

Excellent, well-spoken, well-liked, well-worth-it, attorney

I contacted Mike shortly after being arrested. I was extremely worried and unsure of my future. After speaking with Mike, he explained my charge to me calmly and went on to present a legal strategy; He then talked through the reasoning behind this strategy. He never told me not to worry, but I just d...idn’t need to worry as much once I had this better understanding and had hired Mike Rubin as my attorney. I feel I should mention that I spoke to other attorneys and did some research before this point, but no one else took the same time and care, and for a reasonable fee, that Mike did. From this point on he handled every aspect of my case. He explained every action he took, and explained to me what to expect and when to expect it, taking all of my “what-if’s” out of the picture. When it came time to appear in court, Mike was there when I walked into the courthouse. He went over the charge and expected outcome again, and was with me throughout this process. Everything went exactly as expected, and I have Mike to thank for that. I don’t expect to ever be on the wrong side of the law again, but if I was I wouldn’t hesitate to call Mike Rubin to represent me. So, if you are reading this review and you find yourself or a loved one in a similar situation - in over your head, anxious, not knowing what to do next - you should do all you can to understand the law and call Mike Rubin to get you through your case and back to where you need to be in life.

Old school with new school resources

I felt when I was describing my case to Mr. Rubin, he put himself in my shoes as if he were the one charged with the offense. Immediately I noticed a service I hadn't received from previous representation. I felt his fee was more than fair, and his ability to keep me informed was magnificent. I hope ...I need not his services in the future, but he WILL be my first call.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Mike and I were both prosecutors in the same office- at different times; and we were co-counsel on a case together- our client was facing 10 years and went home because we convinced the jury to convict on misdemeanors instead of felonies. Mike is a competent and diligent attorney who zealously advocates his client's causes. Anyone who decided to retain Mike mad a wise choice."
