About

A little bit about me, prior to joining Dankner, Milstein & Ruffo P.C.,I was a trial associate at a nationally renowned personal injury law firm. Prior to that, I held the title of Senior Trial Associate at another major litigation firm based in New York City. After demonstrating my abilities based on settlements and verdicts, in less than a year and a half, I was named Partner at Dankner Milstein & Ruffo P.C.My knowledge and trial experience has earned me an impressive reputation not only with my clients, but amongst my peers in the legal profession. Presiding Justices of the New York State Supreme Court in the Counties of Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn have recognized my top-notch skills and professional integrity.I have negotiated millions of dollars in settlements and have won major verdicts at trial when the client and I deemed settlement offers unacceptable. I have also argued many of my verdicts at the appellate level, thereby collecting not only the recovery I earned my clients but statutory interest, thereby fortifying my reputation of always doing the very best for my clients.If you or a loved one has been impacted by the negligence of another please contact me at [email protected] or (516) 991-4765.

Reliable. Marcelo was with me every step of the way during a difficult time. Anytime you needed him, he was always there ready to respond and guide. Marcelo was reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. He always made sure to remain objective, never trying to lead with any false promises but instead striving for only the best. I am so grateful to have had him on my team and because of that we were quite successful in the end. I can't thank Marcelo and his office enough for the outstanding work he provided during my case.

Marcelo was an excellent attorney and he was very involved in every aspect of my case. He took his time to respond to all my questions I had along the way. He was never too busy to take a call. He fought very hard to get the best settlement possible for me and I appreciate everything he did. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a personal injury attorney.

I have dealt with a few attorneys throughout my professional career, and I have not come across someone like Marcelo. He is the consummate professional towards peer and clients, I would be happy to be part of the network that recommends him as a peer and a client.

I was lucky to work with Mr. Buitrago during the toughest times of my life and he was instrumental in helping me move on and get the justice I deserved. I was very pleased with his work and would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Mr. Buitrago really exemplifies how an attorney should be, he is kind, caring, thoughtful and helpful. He puts to rest the negative stereotypes and stigmas that come with the title of being an attorney, His passion and love for the job and his clients really comes through in the quality of his work.

I highly recommend Marcelo Buitrago to any individual looking for a personal injury lawyer. From the very beginning Marcelo made me feel as if I was a part of his team and not just his client. He made sure I understood everything that was going on and was always available to speak with. Marcelo is beyond professional and works very hard to make sure his clients get what they need.

I worked with Mr. Buitrago a few years back and highly recommend him to all family and friends in need of a personal injury attorney. He is an extraordinarily diligent lawyer that is not satisfied until all his client's needs are met. He was always readily available to answer any and all my questions, no matter the day or time. I've had to work with lawyers in the past for other reasons and Mr. Buitrago never made me feel as if I was a bother; he highly exceeded my expectations ensuring I was always completely informed, making me feel more than just a client, simply because he truly cared about ensuring the best possible outcome for my case and worked hard until all my needs were met. If you're in need of a personal injury lawyer he is the lawyer you call-- trust me you will be 100% satisfied, as was I!

Marcelo made my legal experience as easy as possible. He always responded to my inquires, explained what was going on and kept me in the loop. I was impressed with his knowledge and felt confident in his abilities. Thanks to him, we settled at an even higher amount than I had hoped for. I highly recommend him!

Marcelo was an excellent attorney, he was 150% reliable, always on top of my case and always kept me abreast of how my case was proceeding. I trusted his advice and always felt like he was looking for my best interest. I was impressed with his knowledge of the law, I can recall how he could quote specific cases and exact legal verbiage that supported my case. Finally, even though he is a busy attorney, I always felt like a priority.
