James G. Rubin review

Throughout my case involving multiple moving violations, Mr. Rubin provided exemplary representation. From the initial stages to the ultimate dismissal, I benefited from outstanding legal guidance and support, making the entire process smooth and efficient. Rubin is truly an exceptional attorney, and... choosing him as your legal representative ensures that you are in capable hands.

Excellent Choice

I had a traffic ticket that James took care of and got dismissed. He was very knowledgeable and eased my mind by his confidence in his ability to handle my situation. He kept me informed of the whole process and never left me guessing. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for an attorney. ...

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 29

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"James has the kind of presence that makes a jury listen and makes a prosecutor uneasy. He is very likable and draws people in with his confident, yet relaxed, demeanor. James is thorough with his analysis of a case, and has impressed me on a number of occasions in pre-trial hearings, making arguments about technical aspects of a case and having a sharp eye for details that many defense attorneys simply miss. James comes off as reasonable (even when the defendant seems unreasonable), and he has gained my respect and trust. In my work as a prosecutor, it is rare for me to meet a defense attorney like James who has both exceptional legal skills and the charisma it takes to successfully defend a case. He has the unique ability to make my job more difficult, but also more enjoyable, whenever I see him in court."

"James is an excellent attorney and one who represents his clients zealously. He is always well prepared in a courtroom and as a fairly new attorney, I was able to watch and learn from him. He is a great trial lawyer and I would recommend him to friends and family."

"James has been a friend and colleague for many years and I have had the privilege of seeing him try several cases to jury. He is wonderful in trial. Further, James is meticulous in how he handles his cases and is able to quickly build rapport with everyone in the courtroom—including opposing counsel. He is a gifted trial attorney who understands the law and is able to insightfully represent his clients’ best interests on every level. His Spanish is impeccable. Anyone who hires James is in very good hands."

Unknown lawyer | Mar 04

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known James for over 10 years. He is a hell of a lawyer. We both practice in the same field (criminal and class C violations) and I would tell any client who asked why they should hire me over him that I don't have a good answer. James is an excellent tactician with the ability to think on his feet and make the right call time and time again. I have watched him in trial and have learned from him. He is compassionate and puts his clients first. He will fight for his clients and he will tell them the truth. His ability to convince prosecutors to give away a little bit more comes from beating many of them time and time again in trial. I would hire him I were in need of a top notch attorney."
