When coordinating my work as a CFP® with previous attorneys, it seemed non-responsiveness and blanket answers were the norm. Attorney Rubin has always been prompt, concise, and consistent when coordinating work together. Would highly recommend him for any financial professional who need to co-op on with a qualfied estate planning attorney.

Atty.Rubin was very thorough when he updated all our wills and created several trusts.he left no stone unturned to ensure our best interests (and, very importantly, assets) were covered.the legal system is so complicated now i'm sure it's a challenge to keep on top of things.

All of our families needs and considerations are taken care of before we actually know we have to take care of a need. Attorney Rubin is smart charming and passionate about his work. The way he has assisted me on a personal level I will never forget. I highly recommend Attorney Rubin for all legal matters.

We had used Steve for Elder law services and again for the closing on our new condo. Steve and his staff bent over backwards and jumped through hoops to be sure that our closing came off on time. We were sailing for Europe within days of the scheduled closing, Steve and his staff persevered to get the title company to cooperate and to arrange with the seller's attorney for this to happen in a timely manner. Steve works long hours and really pulls hard for his clients. We have also been extremely happy with the elder law assistance he has also provided for us

Steven's knowledge of the intricacies of elder care law was proven to me not once, but twice...simultaneously. He handled the affairs of my mother and mother-in-law concurrently with a remarkable level of adroitness. Both cases posed unusual circumstances requiring careful evaluation and strategic planning. Steven handled each case with meticulous attention to detail. He remained prepared and ever ready throughout the process, several times going beyond the call of duty. We were reassured by Steven’s skill and most certainly astonished by his kindness and compassion.
