Highly Recommend Reuben!!!

I had a great experience working with Reuben. He helped me resolve a business dispute with a bad partner and got it settled quickly, which saved me a lot of time, money, and headaches. From day one, he handled everything himself from A to Z and never passed me off to anyone else. He took the time ...to walk me through the process and made sure I understood what was going on at every step. What stood out most is that he actually cared. I never felt like just another case. He treated me like family. He was always available, patient, and put in real time to guide me through a stressful situation. He’s extremely knowledgeable and confident in all fields of law and he uses that expertise to get everything done in the best way. If you want someone who knows their stuff and is fully invested in your case, I’d definitely recommend Reuben.

Highly Recommend Reuben

I highly recommend Reuben, he’s an outstanding real estate lawyer who truly made a difference for me as a commercial tenant. When I was dealing with issues with my landlord, Reuben stepped in and skillfully negotiated my lease on my behalf. He secured important protections that I wasn’t even aware of... before, and took the time to thoroughly educate me on my rights under the revised agreement. Communication was a top priority for him as he kept me updated every step of the way with clear, regular progress reports.

Professional, Responsive, Very Knowledgeable, and Persistent

I had a great experience working with Reuben Mirzakanov at Paykin Law. Reuben was thorough, professional, knowledgeable and persistent. My landlord was very unresponsive to building issues so I needed to break my lease. Reuben stayed persistent, followed up until it was resolved, and got my lease rel...eased and full deposit back. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with difficult landlord/tenant matters!

Real estate transactions

Going into my property sale and later a new purchase, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Real estate deals can get complicated, especially when banks and deadlines are involved. Thankfully, Reuben made the whole process much smoother than I anticipated. He kept me in the loop the entire time, handled a...ll the paperwork and lender requirements without issues, and stayed ahead of every deadline. What really stood out was how well he negotiated on my behalf he ended up saving me money and avoided a lot of the usual stress that comes with these transactions. Reuben was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely had my best interests in mind. I’m really glad I had him on my side.
