Michael D. Rubin

I contacted Mr. Rubin when I realized I'd made a mistake and hired a totally incompetent attorney (or perhaps one who was actually having drinks with the opposing counsel-do your research) and I was about to lose my children and my whole life (I was a stay-at-home mom) to my soon-to-be ex because he ...entered the courtroom with a campaign of awful lies about me. My ex initially accused me of being a drug addict, an alcoholic, a lunatic, and an abuser, all in hopes of taking the children away to get back at me for filing for divorce. At our first hearing (before I hired Michael), the judge totally believed everything my ex said and I wasn't even allowed to go back to my own home that very night--despite the fact that everything was a lie! I went through hell for 15 months fighting the good fight against my ex (who is an attorney) and his attorney (who believed my ex...at first)--drug tests, social study, substance abuse evaluation, you name it. I had none of the problems, so all of his lies were proven to be just that. OK--back to Michael-- So, after the first hearing, I found Michael and he said he could help. Two weeks after the first court date, we went back to court with the drug test results (and other results) and Michael got me my kids, my house, child support, and my ex kicked out. We still had almost a year ahead of us because my ex wouldn't give up, but every time we went to court, Michael was there (on time) and was a rock star. Although I went into some court dates feeling unprepared, he always made me feel reassured as soon as we got there and then killed it in front of the judge. After I hired him, literally everything went my way and I got more than I ever expected in the end. I would recommend him to anyone fighting to win fairly in a bitter divorce battle. He called my ex out for all of his lies in front of the judge and, without compromising anyone's integrity, made it perfectly clear how things should be. I am so glad I found him. Thank you Michael.

He is SHARP! He is TOUGH! He is EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT. He is TITANIUM IN A COURT ROOM. He has an INCREDIBLE MEMORY. He GOT ME THE IMPOSSIBLE when I had no hope at the time. He kept me strong & positive as he fought HARD for me for 2 LONG years! He and was able to get me everything he said h...e would so that I could take care of my daughter with autism until she is fully independent. ~I was awarded Primary custody of our daughter. ~MAXIMUM Child support & medical insurance for her. ~MAXIMUM Spousal support which only the Judge can take it away.. This is such an unprecedented VICTORY for all autism parents who are fighting custody and deserve support to help care for them. Never in my 16 years of being in the Autism world have I heard of being awarded child support for life if necessary because it has never once happened till now! I researched online for months and never saw one case. He fought very hard for me so I could keep my daughter and we won! Michael Rubin WILL fight for you too..ALL the way! He kept me strong by easing my fears by responding to all my emails and answering my 1000+ questions. By the way...we won on 100% INTEGRITY unlike my EX who played dirty along with his incompetent lawyer (IMHO) who charged him TWICE as much...and lost. Karma. I am forever GRATEFUL to you Mr. Michael Rubin! You will always be my Rock Star!! :) Shelley

I noticed all his so called great reviews have since disappeared! My experience was a nightmare. Mr. Rubin showed up late for hearings. Sometimes he didn't bother to show up for court hearings. He refused to file documents in a timely manner. He even lost documents relevant to my hearing. He rarely i...f ever prepared me for court. He just didn't care about my family's well being. When I was fed up I called the state bar. State bar warned me about his disciplinary action when I called to ask about how to file a grievance against him.Then there's his grossly incompetent paralegal. She is worse than he is. She will not take your calls. She has no problem billing you for her screw ups.I won't be surprised when his license is suspended from allowing him to practice law.
