Michael D. Rubin

Mr. Rubin is the type of attorney you want by your side in a court room. He helped me with a child custody case that involved my niece. Each time we went to court, he was prepared, confident and didn't take any crap off the other attorney or the mother of my niece. Long story short. He's an excel...lent attorney. My family has used him numerous times and we have ALL been happy with our outcome. Thank you Mr. Rubin for being an excellent attorney!!!

Michael represented me in my divorce almost two years ago. Very little could be decided out of court so we ended up going to trial. I was dealing with all of the emotional aspects of the divorce and relied on Michael completely. I was very nervous for the trial because my ex-husband was also an ...attorney and he had that advantage over me. Being in a court room was quite comfortable for him and not for me. Michael calmed my nerves and gave me the confidence to answer truthfully and be well prepared. My ex was not very cooperative with providing all the documentation that was provided, didn’t show up for our first trial that was set, but that didn’t stop Michael. He was well prepared, pouring over countless emails and financial statements in the last minute. He got my everything I asked for: maximum child support, spousal support, custody, debt that was in both of our names was required for him to pay. So in all, I was absolutely pleased with the outcome. My absolutely favorite thing about Michael was his relentless approach during trial. When he got my ex-husband on the stand he asked him the hard questions and DID NOT BACK DOWN when my ex tried to use his own experience as a trial attorney. The judge even stepped in at one point and told my ex, that he might be use to being in a courtroom, but this was not HIS courtroom today, it was hers and he needed to answer the questions. Some refer to Michael as a shark, but I feel that term is a negative way to describe him, instead he gets the job done and he does it very well and will not back down. I wasn’t prepared for the fact that Eventhough the divorce is final and there is a decree, I would have to continue to fight for the things in the decree. But Michael has been there to answer questions for me. Unfortunately we moved back to Colorado or I would have taken my ex back to court with Michael. Thank you for a job well done.

After being blindsided by my husband with a separation and then blindsided by him filing a petition for parent-child relationship I was sent an estimate from Michael Rubin on Thumbtack. I was leery at first about speaking with him due to him having had a disciplinary action. However after reading al...l of his reviews, requesting info from The Texas Bar and speaking with him directly I was impressed and put at ease by his wealth of knowledge, confidence, professionalism and the fact that I was always able to reach him directly 7 days per week. He provided me with recommendations on how to handle each step of the court process. My case ended up being dismissed but I will definitely retain Mr. Rubin in the event of a divorce.

Mr. Rubin handled my divorce and child custody. He was able to negotiate both matters with me being able to keep my finances in place and receiving child support from my ex-wife. Then 4 years later he brilliantly fought to gain full custody of my sons and receive even higher child support on a mo...nthly basis . Mr. Rubin nullified the opposing attorney and got right to the heart of the matter in my case to achieve a big win and future settlement for my sons. I would highly recommend Michael Rubin as an attorney. He is extremely personable with a wonderful disposition. He cares about his clients. Joseph Paul Dodsonjp

I hired Mr. Rubin for a high dollar property and custody case. I was conflicted at first because his reviews on Thumbtack and Yelp were almost all positive. Since this was my life we were talking about I did a lot of research before I decided to hire someone. I contacted AVVO to see why it warned th...at Mr. Rubin should be approached with extreme caution. There response was due to his history with the bar. I asked what issues did he have and they did not know. It was the mere fact that he had been disciplined at some point. AVVO also told me not to rely on their rating as the sole reason to hire any lawyer and that they do not consider client reviews in its rating. I also called the Bar to find out the specific issues Mr. Rubin had the bar and left with no concerns. I have learned that a lawyer can be disciplined for very trivial to very serious issues. Mr. Rubin's issues with the bar were trivial (in my opinion) as they dealt with timely sending of bills and the amount of time to refund a retainer. None of the complaints had anything to do with his ability as a lawyer. His issues with the bar were also at time when he was sick as he explained to me in person. Bottom line is that I am so lucky and happy that I hired Mr. Rubin. The client reviews about how hard he works, his tenacity in the court room etc, were all true. I am glad I did not allow some "rating" prevent me from hiring him. My ex husband's lawyer was from some big law firm and charged him exorbitant fees. Mr. Rubin got me custody of the kids plus more than 50% of the marital estate and alimony and his fees were less that what my ex was charged. Thank you Mr, Rubin for all that you did for me and my family.
