Law Office of Harvey Rubinchik, PA. Harvey Rubinchik is a scam and took my money in Plantation, Florida

In regard to Debbie's rip off report, I have know idea who she is and have no idea why she would file such a report with out investigating the truth of the matter.

That approximatly 27 years ago the referenced case against me was dismissed as the authorities admitted that when I advised them that the perpetrators had forged the documents, I had properly prepared for real estate closings in order to defraud its investors, my own records proofed my innocence.  

After the case was dismissed against me the Florida Bar did its own investigation of the alleged charges and found I had not committed any violations of the Florida Bar Code of Ethics.

In fact, I have never been sanctioned by the Florida Bar for any reason since I became a memeber in October 1973.

A reputation is something that you earn through hard work and dillgence and I never have or never will do anything to compromise my standing with in the community as well as my clients.

Harvey Rubinchik is a con cartist and should never be trusted!!!!  Below is an example of why from the Boward County Sun Sentinal Report.  I was going to hire him in August and decidedagainst it.



Four operators of a defunct Fort Lauderdale investment firm were

arrested on Friday and charged with cheating South Floridians out of

$598,000 in phony mortgage investments, investigators said.The

Broward State Attorney`s Office issued arrest warrants for nine other

people associated with the investment firm, First Mortgage Trust Inc.,

which the state Comptroller`s office closed in October 1984.  Charged on Friday with 37 counts each of grand theft and one count

each of organized scheme to defraud were John J. Longo, 38, a convicted

felon who lives in Palm Beach County; Michael D. Cirullo, 46, of North

Palm Beach; Peyton K. Bailey, 28, of West Palm Beach; and Harvey L.

Rubinchik, 38, of Plantation.If convicted, they and associates still at large face maximum prison terms of 215 years each.``Throw

the book at them,`` said Irving Hughes, a Tamarac retiree who said he

was promised 18 percent interest on a $10,000 investment with First

Mortgage Trust. ``They preyed on anybody who would give them money. They

sold the same property 10 times over and kept the difference.``Longo,

called the principal operator of First Mortgage Trust, and Bailey were

freed from Palm Beach County Jail on Friday after posting bail of

$45,500 each. Cirullo and Rubinchik were being held in lieu of the same

bail.According to documents filed by Assistant State Attorney

Peter Wilson, the arrests culminate a three-year fraud investigation by

the Broward State Attorney`s Office Economic Crime Unit and the Florida

Comptroller`s office.``These con men don`t break bones, but they

shatter dreams,`` said Comptroller`s office investigator Barry Gladden.

``A lot of these people were earmarking this money for retirement. They

worked hard and took advantage of what looked like a good investment,

and now many of them are out of their money.``First Mortgage

Trust lured investors with newspaper advertisements that promised

interest rates as high as 18 percent on second-mortgage investments,

Gladden said.According to documents filed by Wilson, 55 people --

including 20 from Broward County and 11 from Palm Beach County --

invested $1.13 million with First Mortgage Trust and several subsidiary

firms in 1984. Of that amount, Longo and associates invested only

$532,000 in second mortgages on single- family homes, condominiums and

apartments, the documents say.``They used the rest of the money

for a variety of things, including their own personal expenses,``

Gladden said. ``Some of the company`s officers lived in the property

they supposedly were selling to investors.``First Mortgage Trust

did own some property, most of it in eastern Fort Lauderdale, Gladden

said. But the firm took in much more money than the value of the

property and used money from new investors to pay interest due earlier

investors, he said.``It was a clever scheme,`` investor Hughes

said. ``The first three months, we got our interest rate on the nose.

And then it all blew up, because another of the investors started

demanding to see the property she had bought.`` Hughes was lucky. He got his $10,000 back two years after he gave it to Longo, he said.Less

fortunate was Fort Lauderdale resident Theodore Voda, who is waging a

court battle recover $20,000 he invested in property at 2448 NE 27th

Terrace, documents show.``I haven`t got my money back,`` Voda

said on Friday. ``Definitely they ought to be prosecuted. It makes me

feel good. I can`t say anthing else because my case is in court.``The

nine other First Mortgage Trust associates wanted on grand theft and

fraud charges were: Roger M. Engler, former president of the firm;

Constanzo J. Longo, John Longo`s father; Camela M. Longo, John Longo`s

mother; Robert M. Siebelts; Michelle A. Brant; Raymond J. Ludwig; Stella

R. Este; Thomas E. Vallee; and Jay A. Carson.Investigators said John Longo`s role managing First Mortgage Trust was the latest in a series of dubious financial ventures.

the complaint filed against me is totally false. i do not know anyone by the name of janice or her son. never heard from this alleged victim nor did my office recieve any calls. no complaint ever filed with the florida bar. if i ripped her off as she says why did she wait more than a year to complain. this is a direct effort to slander my reputation without any truth to the claim
