In a very bleak, corrupt and opportunistic legal field, Steven Ruben provided light, hope and professional effectiveness. His office administration and personnel were tirelessly supportive in seeking to correct a series of prior litigation errors entirely unconnected to Ruben Law Firm. Steve Ruben accepted a difficult and complex case that others had declined, late in its litigation process. He was realistic, candid, generous of spirit, intelligent and his skills provided measures of relief that previously had been denied. My family have reason to be grateful for Mr. Ruben's help and humanity. His quiet support, and that of his office continue to this day.

Being a family law firm is hard. Divorce and custody issues are always fraught and no one walks away happy. Its easy to feel sour about your attorney as a result. But if you want a law firm that cares about you and your case, and tries their best to do the right thing by you, the Ruben Law Firm is a great choice. They have been in this business a very long time, and experience counts. And they are good people. Steve Ruben knows his stuff and you should not hesitate to seek his advice. I speak from personal experience as a client.

I worked with Stephen Ruben on my divorce case and it was a complete disaster. He regularly told me things were fine, hang on to the house, your son will be coming home, your prenup has a good chance of holding up....yet all this was wrong. After many tens of thousands of dollars of legal fees, (many for work done by an assistant), he said we had to settle immediately because, "you can't afford to have me litigate". I lost my house in SF, job, (due to the on going poor negotiation skills of Mr Ruben re custody), and so much more....ending in bankruptcy. He also recommended that I file for divorce after she notified me of her intentions to file....and when we served the papers, with language precluding her from removing our son, Mr. Ruben failed to have the documents signed by the Commissioner so they were invalid. My son was gone and a legal battle of years to get half my own son.....ensued. Fell free to contact me for more details. I'm re posting on YELP again soon to where many many people have contacted me for input after similar experiences with Stephen Ruben. Good luck out there...it's a multi billion dollar interest with you, your ex and your children truly, not even considered not matter what they say about 'best interests'. The lawyers 'best interests' are what is served. Mr Ruben even had a role in a play in a theatre group where he opined about the lawyers taking all the booty in divorce court.

Stephen Ruben is an excellent attorney. He is knowledgeable and understanding in his approach towards guiding me with the best legal advice. His staff is also professional, kind and competent. It is a relief to know I can turn to Ruben Law when I need to.

Mr. Ruben is very knowledgeable in family law and a consummate professional. He will fight for his client and at the same time he will let you know if you’re out of line. He handled my very contentious divorce and custody case extremely well and it resulted in the best outcome I could hope for. His staff is very good and always attentive.
