Review Daniel Ruiz

Divorce

5.0 stars

Posted by

With previous legal services I've had, Mr. Ruiz left a remarkable lasting impression with me. He returned phone calls and emails promptly, informed me of any developments of my case, and appeared in court by my side on time and prepared. Also, he was respectful and compassionate towards my situation. I definitely would hire him again and highly recommend him to others.

Divorce settlement

5.0 stars

Posted by

Attorney Ruiz was exceptional and went beyond the call of service! Originally, i filed for divorce myself using legal zoom, however, things became a lot worse and thats when I heard about Daniel. I had a great feeling of comfort when I read that he served our country in the military, furthermore, he took care of my entire divorce settlement while i was living in Pennsylvania. As a reflection of Daniels ethics/morals in his practice my unused retainer fee was returned

Mr. Ruiz represented me in an auto injury case and also in a medical malpractice case for one of my children. He was successful in negotiating settlements for both of these cases, which saved untold amounts in expenses.

Great Lawyer - Thinks Inside & Outside the Box

5.0 stars

Daniel represented me during my "uncontested" divorce, as if there is such a thing? His service was exceptional. He listened first, intently without interruption. He paraphrased back to me my request and expectations as he understood them. Then he and I collaborated on a plan of action, yes he actually included me in the brainstorming! He explained what he needed from me to be successful. He took care of the court filings as a good attorney should and ensured I got notarized copies of everything. He guided me every step of the way and for this I am grateful. He never promised me anything he couldn't deliver. He was honest. Imagine that, an honest lawyer, I guess they do exist after all! I highly recommend his services, if what you require is outside his area of expertise he will let you know up front and if possible recommend a colleague better suited to your needs. Pardon the pun.
