Steve Ruffalo is one of the best lawyers I have ever seen. He is knowledgeable, honest and full of integrity and can relate to most people regardless of their background. He is down to earth but is extremely aware of the law as it relates to the particular issues in your case. Always kept the parties involved in the case informed.

Steve makes me feel like my case like its the only one he has. He always keeps me informed as the case progresses. I feel like he has no fear when it comes to my representation. He listens to my concerns and incorporates them into getting the best results.

Mr. Ruffalo is very professional, my dealings with him have always been positive and his help with my legal issues went above and beyond my expectations. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a sharp attorney that knows how to get the job done.

Steve is a consummate professional and a very trusted advisor. He seeks to truly understand his client’s needs and perspectives, and works hard to meet their objectives. Steve is fair, objective, and non-judgmental, and can be relied upon to arrive at a strong outcome.

I've been on Avvo for 3 years, and gotten advice from dozens of lawyers, but this is the first time I was compelled to write a review! Wow!!! Steven Ruffalo is as brilliant as they come! I am involved in a case where I am suing a heating contractor and his LLC for shoddy workmanship, and causing my basement to flood. Well, being shielded by his LLC, and other complicating factors, I didn't quite know how to proceed. Mr. Ruffalo not only provided me with invaluable information and resources, he named other money damages I would be entitled to as well! Because I was concerned about legal costs, he constructed a cost efficient way he could proceed with the case. Mr Ruffalo seems to be a lawyer's lawyer; like he could be at any Ivy league school teaching law. I am a tough grader who rarely gives A's. Mr. Ruffalo gets an A+!
