From the initial meeting to the final meeting with the Trustee, my wife and I felt totally informed. The process was predictable and painless and Mark and his staff were there to guide us through each step.

Mark and all of the staff were very helpful thru out the process. Mark always had the rite words to put us at ease with the process. I believe that Rubin & Associates are the best
This is Michael Rubin. I am not affiliated with Rubin and Associates. They do bankruptcy and do a great job. We share office space. I do divorces. I do not recall any divorce client named J. Garrett . I think this is a made up name. If I am incorrect please provide your full name so I can respond. Thank you.

Strongly do not recommend. They steered me toward bankruptcy even though there were better options for my situation. They just seemed to want money rather than to actually help me. I paid them $3500, then found out about better options on my own and chose not to file. Even though they did not file bankruptcy on my behalf or complete my paperwork, they kept all $3500. Even so, I'm so glad I didn't file because it can stay on your credit report for up to 10 years. By NOT following their advice, I'm already able to purchase houses and cars. There are a lot of good options out there to bankruptcy, so read up at all the credit websites and don't rush into paying money for a solution that harms you in the long run.

Did everything he could to make my divorce as hostile as possible. Does not follow professional etiquette and took advantage of my ex to get a bigger paycheck. In the end, he withdrew to save his reputation because he was going to lose after filing delay after delay.

Reading some of these reviews just blows my mind! I have been working with Michael Rubin since filing for divorce in April. When he filed for temporary orders and we had our hearing - he got me everything I asked for. He was prepared and ready! We are midway through and he continues to help me in anyway he can. He has always been VERY prompt in returning phone calls or emails!! I've emailed him the evening after business hours and gotten an immediate response. Michael's Assistant, Nicol is wonderful! Very knowledgeable and has the best customer service! I have nothing but good things to say about this office. I HIGHLY recommend!!! Divorce is expensive - don't expect to pay a little of nothing and get an excellent Attorney!

DO NOT waste your time! Attorney I talked to acted as if he was playing solitaire while listening to me. Did not seem to care about any of my questions. Rude!

The experience has been great I was so stressed at the time they were very caring and the lawyer mark was awsome. He walked me through the whole process from start to finish.
It was a very good experience with the whole process. I was in a terrible place in my life and I needed help.
They went above and beyond for me to get me back on track with my life and they have removed the stress from me during a difficult time in my life.
I highly recommend Rubin and Associates they are the best.

WORSE LAWYER EVER,DO NOT HIRE HIM IF HE PAYS YOU

This firm is definitely NOT into customer service, returning calls, returning emails, or answering questions. If customer service is their #1 priority you can forget about whatever is #2.
The customer there is treated like cattle and everyone is herded through the same little bankruptcy scenario, over and over. If you have something thats different than the typical bankruptcy, it really throws them for a loop.
I showed up early and very unprepared for my bankruptcy hearing to meet the lawyer representing me. I had no idea what to expect because that info had really not been shared with me. I was told my attorney would be there early and we would go over everything. My lawyer was someone from his office that was late, I had never met and had not even looked at my paperwork before. So she was even less prepared than I.
The bankruptcy Trustee, during the hearing, found paperwork, that they had prepared incorrectly and answered questions on incorrectly. So, when I answered her questions honestly and correctly, it made it appear that I was being dishonest. This all ended up with a bad result. It created a second hearing and definitely put me on her "wrong" side throughout the rest of the proceedings and I feel it was the main reason that she denied an exemption on certain properties of mine.
I was given advise by Mark on something pretty important before the filing. He informed me that I could do something that I had asked him about before the filing and it would not affect the proceeding, because it was business not personal. Well that was the wrong answer. Turns out that I shouldnt have done it and because of doing it, I was judged against and had to reach a settlement on that issue. I did not do anything to benefit myself or anyone else monetarily, but to help my family to stay in their house during a divorce and bankruptcy. I was accused of trying to commit fraud. Later, after the settlement was reached, when I questioned him, Mark denied giving me the advise that he had. That told me everything that I needed to know about him.
Just fyi, I was initially charged $5,000 and Mark's staff had to later type 2 letters on my behalf. I was charged $1,500 for each letter.
Except for the 1 settlement, the other debts were eventually discharged, but it was about a year later. It has now been about 3 years and my bankruptcy is still not final. I have had no idea what to expect, throughout this part of the process, or what I can or cannot do with the properties that were not exempted. I just know I still have to manage the properties, maintain them, pay for them and the taxes on them. I would love for the court to either take them, or let me get rid of them because they simply cost me time and $ every year. I need to be rid of them, but apparently I cannot, but I am still responsible for them.
But I am really not sure because every call and email to mark after the discharge, went unreturned. I can get no questions answered from him. I finally gave up. I would like to retire and move off, but I have to continue to work and stay near, to take care of and pay for these properties.
Mark is probably not a bad guy, and his office probably does fine on the typical run of the mill bankruptcy. But mine was definitely my first time, I was very ignorant and upset about having to go through the process in the first place, I had a lot of questions, and apparently my case was more complicated than what is typical. But he told me the first time I met with him, that mine was relatively simple and he routinely does cases that are much larger and more complex than what mine was and I believed him, thats why I used him.
I'm about 3 years into my bankruptcy, I dont know why its not closed, what I can or cant do, and I have no one to turn to, to get the information. I dont know, maybe you are expected to hire a different attorney after the discharge, to get the bankruptcy closed. I know after mine couldnt bill me for anything, he quit answering questions for me.

I would like to share my thoughts of admiration and appreciation for Attorney, Mr. Mark Rubin and his associates. After many years of financial stress due to various circumstances, I called Mr. Rubin's office after hearing his reviews on the radio. He returned my call within the same day and we spoke briefly about my situation. Mark suggested that I come into his office; and after a more detailed analysis, he would advise me as to what path to take in order to resolve my financial state of affairs.
We had one meeting; and at the conclusion, Mr. Rubin suggested that I file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. He gave me a detailed breakdown of all that was required and the time frame involved. About two months later, I had one more meeting in his office with one of his associates. And within the next 7 weeks, I was in a bankruptcy hearing in downtown Dallas. There were several other individuals present who were also filing various types of bankruptcy, many of whom were represented by Mr. Rubin.
I was fascinated at I watched each client go before the trustee with Mark as their representative. He was gracious and personal, and very considerate to each individual (or couple) as their review was being conducted. His professionalism and concerns were a mix that is seldom seen with any attorney / client relationship during ongoing legal procedures. Needless to say, Mark represented me in the same manner, and everything went as well as he had forecasted.
From my first telephone call to his office with his receptionist, all the way through my final day of review, Mark Rubin was every bit of the person and attorney that I had heard he was. His staff, those of whom I had met and dealt with, were exceptional; and they have willingly shared with me their high regard and respect for Mr. Mark Rubin as an attorney, as their employer, and as their friend.
I can truly speak from my heart when I say Mark Rubin is a wonderful attorney and human being who honestly cares about the well-being and feelings of those he serves. If you are in a stressful financial situation due to overwhelming debt, be assured, Mark Rubin & Associates will advise and represent you to the highest degree with the utmost courtesy and integrity. ..Jim Martin

This attorney's office is great if all you care about is results. If you don't care about customer service, or having your calls or emails returned.
But if you are a normal person and want customer service, wanted to be advised about what to expect in a bankruptcy, want to be talked through the pros' and cons of bankruptcy decisions, and want to know what is actually going on with your case, I would advise you find another attorney.

We've had the pleasure of knowing Mark and his staff for years now, and have sent several of our friends to them for bankruptcy help. They are the friendliest and most intelligent group of people you could hope to have on your case.
Truly, you couldn't be in better hands. If you're looking for a Dallas area bankruptcy attorney, you need to call them.
