My experience with Emily Rubenstein was life changing. I am a single mother with three daughters…read moreone of whom has life-threatening medical issues. I had lived separated from my husband for 10 years with very little money when I finally got the courage to start my divorce. I began with a different lawyer who was reputed to be kind of a pit bull but very good and expensive. Unfortunately she (my first lawyer, NOT Emily) was also terrible to me, unorganized, unethical in her billing, wouldn't respond to my ex's settlement offer, and was slapdash in her approach to my case, not telling me I needed to respond to discovery until I only had a week left to do so. I contacted Emily in despair. She took the reins immediately starting with handling the turnover from the old lawyer, handling problems with my ex, and got everything organized and back under control. She kept me informed and calm. She was gentle and compassionate but also realistic and honest with me to properly set my expectations. She listened to and incorporated my thoughts and suggestions where they would work in our favor. Her research and writing were top notch. The mediation brief she wrote was a work of art - so persuasive, incorporating solid research and bolstered by specific and complete evidence. In the end she was able to more than double what I was getting in child support and getting my ex to pay for my medically fragile child's insurance until 26. Also she was extremely judicious, fair and reasonable in her billing. I always felt I had gotten great value for the cost. If you want a smart, effective, compassionate attorney on your side during your divorce, or any other family law matter, I highly recommend that you hire Emily Rubenstein.

After being a client for over a year, I required their services again as my exhusband came after me…read moreto nullify my divorce decree. My previous attorney, Krystal, was leaving the practice so they handed me off to another new attorney who neither knew me nor my case. I was charged over $16,000 for her to "get caught up" and attend one court date with me. I was advised to say nothing and let her do all the talking. She literally said the worst thing she could have for my case and I had to sit there, listen and say nothing. When I called her out afterwards, she assured me that it was part of her "strategy." Seems like an odd strategy to hurt my case in court. I had to fire them before it cost me another cent. I should have been refunded 100% as this practice went from being one in which I felt safe and protected to one that was happy to accept my money without regard to my needs. I would not recommend them again.
