Amazing, Knowledgeable, The BEST!!!

I hired Mr Rubin, for my ongoing divorce case from hell, after an 8 month nightmare with another attorney, who did absolutely NOTHING with my case! In less than 3 weeks Mr Rubin had me in court, got spousal support, interim attorney fees and much more!!! He is a shark in the court room and is extreme...ly smart. Without him I would have been completely screwed. Mr. Rubin is representing me in Montgomery County and his firm is in Dallas Texas, 4 hours away!! He is extremely thorough and fights for his clients and gets RESULTS!! This is definitely the best decision I’ve ever made! Thank you for your continued hard work and amazing communication! I most definitely recommend Mr Rubin as family law attorney!!!!

Fair price excellent work

I hired Mr Rubin to process my divorce case in another county. He and his associate, Nicol, handled everything in an efficient and professional manner. I was kept informed and couldn't be happier with the process. Whatever issues Mr Rubin may have had in the past, they appear to be well behind him.... I would recommend him to anyone that needs a good attorney.

Speeding Ticket w/Missed Court Date

I hired Micheal Rubin because I saw all of the outstanding reviews he had with prior cases, so I decided to give him a try. His office legal team gave me all of the logistics before paying the fee. I was advised to attend the court proceedings if I wanted the case dismissed, reduced, or unless I was ...advised otherwise. I met Mr. Rubin in court for the first time and he was absolutely pleasant, he’s a very nice guy. I attended court to set a dismissal/decision date. I didn’t stay more than 15 minutes. He asked if I could be dismissed. That made me happy. Afterwards, the plan was to come to court to get the ticket dismissed, but I couldn’t leave work due to a shortage. I couldn’t notify him because work was extremely busy. I was really upset and I felt bad! I just knew since I couldn’t come that the ticket wouldn’t be dismissed and I had to pay $270. Well needless to say, Mr. Rubin called me and advised me that the ticket was dismissed, and it wouldn’t be on my driving record. I was ecstatic!!!! Please try him out!!! It’s worth the fee.

Brilliant Intelligent and Capable Attorney

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

Great lawyer!!

I searched tirelessly for a lawyer to take on my complex case. Micheal was the only lawyer to not only reach out to me but take the case at very reasonable price. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. I would highly recommend him!

Rating:  5.2 (Average)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2024.

Disability Suspension issued in TX, 2024

updated on 06/13/2024

Disability Suspension means the attorney has lost his or her license to practice law as a result of a mental or physical disability.

Fully Probated Suspension issued in TX, 2015

updated on 09/07/2016

Fully probated suspension means an attorney is technically suspended but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities during the suspension to make sure that he or she does not repeat the behavior.

Michael’s comment:

“All the discipline is a result of having to shut down my practice. It is complicated shutting down an practice and mistakes were made. Prior to this-I have never been in trouble with the law or any other organization. Since starting to work again-I have limited my case load and if you see my reviews on Thumbtack you will see that my clients are very satisfied with my work. These incidents occurred in late 2012-early 2013. Nothing has occurred since then. Michael Rubin”

Public Reprimand issued in TX, 2015

updated on 09/07/2016

Public reprimand means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State gives the lawyer a public reprimand in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.

Michael’s comment:

“In December of 2012 I became very ill and had to shut down my practice. I did not work for 8 months. Mistakes were made in closing the practice. None of the discipline had anything to do with my competency as a lawyer. These events occurred in 2012 and early 2013 but the cases were not resolved until 2015. I would ask that you consider my client reviews here and on other sites. Please also call me to discuss any concerns you may have. Thanks Michael Rubin”
