He was always very short with me the times I could actually get a hold of him. When deciding what to do with my case and explaining the plea offer he neglected to tell me multiple things that were in the offer including restitution payments. I asked him multiple times if I was loosing my licence and ...
I represent this person nearly one year ago when I was appointed to her two cases. When I represented her she met with me several times. She was fully aware of the plea she was entering into. When she appear in Court for her plea she was asked by the Judge whether she understood the plea agreement and the rights she was giving up. She said "yes". She was not confused about the plea agreement nor did she ask the Judge any further questions. She received a copy of the judgment and also had no questions. I never heard from her again until a few days ago. The allegations she makes are confusing. Additionally, the hearing itself is recorded and does not support her allegations.

Ruben was very helpful, he made going through my first DUI a lot easier. He was able to explain everything that could happen and what most likely would happen. He was dedicated to my case and was able to let me know it would be a difficult year ahead of me. He was very knowledgable in these types of ...

Ruben is a smart and dedicated attorney. He has helped me with many small legal projects and has always demonstrated a good understanding of the law. Perhaps most impressive, he always responds promptly and efficiently.

"I endorse this lawyer."
"Ruben is a very smart and hard working attorney. Client's are in good hands when they retain Ruben; he goes the extra mile. I endorse this lawyer."
"I met Ruben at a legal education seminar. I've referred clients to him and he's an honest and hard working attorney."
"When I refer a friend or client to a fellow attorney, it is important that I have confidence in the attorney. For me, a referral is my representation to the person that I understand the gravity of their situation, and that the attorney I am referring them to will uphold the standards of practice they would expect from me. I have never hesitated to refer friends or clients to Ruben Medina. I know Mr. Medina to be a through and determined advocate for his clients. In addition, Mr. Medina is an engaged member of the Portland community, and he has a commitment to, and understanding of, individuals from varies cultures, backgrounds and orientations. I endorse Mr. Medina as a talented attorney."
"Although Ruben now primarily does personal injury, I met him when he was working as a criminal defender. He struck me as having a good rapport with his clients and understanding their needs. He was easy to work with, and perhaps more importantly, he was realistic. An honest lawyer with good advice can often be difficult to come by, but Ruben definitely fits that description. He knows the law well, and is an effective advocate for his clients."
