ABOUT RUBIN, EHRLICH & BUCKLEY

Rubin, Ehrlich & Buckley is a professional corporation actively engaged in the areas of real estate, environmental law, banking law and complex commercial litigation.  The firm began with two principals who resigned from large regional firms.  In addition to its clients in the field of real estate development, the firm, since its inception has been engaged in the representation of financial institutions concerning real estate related loans.  This representation has included the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) and SAMBDA contractors in both litigation (in state and federal courts) and transactional matters.  Accordingly, the firm has a background in issues involving FIRREA and has represented the RTC in matters asserting FIRREA claims and defenses.

The firm has handled every type of commercial real estate loan from a small single tenant building to a $100 million loan involving fourteen properties in eight different states.  The firm has closed more than $10 billion of loan originations, since its inception.  Currently, the firm's clients include many national and international based financial institutions and entities engaged in originating commercial mortgage loans, national loan servicers, title insurance companies, and companies engaged in acquiring non-performing loans.  The firm's broad-based real estate related backgrounds along with its ability to provide personal attention to each transaction has resulted in cost effective and responsive representation.

On the servicing side, the firm continues to represent Midland Loan Services, Inc. as one of its national counsel.  The firm has represented Midland since 1995, when it was a fledgling servicing company employing only thirty people.  On an individual basis, the firm has been retained by other national servicers as special counsel.

The firm has closed hundreds of loan assumption and loan modification transactions, which include transfers of beneficial ownership interest, title transfers, partial releases of collateral and substitution of property transactions.
