Biography: Ronald Rubinstein, L.L.B., LL.M.  Ronald Rubinstein, a life-long criminal defense attorney, has seen and heard almost everything in his more than 40 years as a criminal defense attorney practicing law in New York City. A graduate of Ohio State University[1], 1960, and Brooklyn Law School[2], 1963, Mr. Rubinstein began his career as an attorney for the estate tax division of the IRS. In 1965 he joined the criminal court branch of the Legal Aid Society of New York[3], right about the time it was designated by the City of New York to be the primary provider of criminal defense representation for the city. Today, the Legal Aid Society of New York, reins as one of the largest and most respected public defender organizations in the world. Mr. Rubinstein began private practice in 1968 and for years held an office across the street from the Queens Criminal Court Complex on Queens Boulevard located in Kew Gardens, New York. A testament to Mr. Rubinstein’s legacy of voracious advocacy, he was one of the youngest lawyers ever to be assigned to New York’s 18-B felony murder panel after less than seven years of criminal practice. Informally dubbed, “The King of Queens,” among his colleagues and the Bar, Mr. Rubinstein made notable headlines in the late 1980’s as lead counsel in the famed “Howard Beach Case[4],” which sparked racial protests in the streets of New York and became a media sensation.[5] In 1991, the Queens County Criminal Courts Bar Association bestowed upon Ronald Rubinstein a Lifetime Achievement Award for his outstanding service to the profession. Since beginning private practice, Mr. Rubinstein has appeared in hundreds of federal cases and numerous state cases, and has appeared before the Federal District Courts of New York, California, New Jersey, Maryland, Florida, Arizona, and Louisiana. He has represented people from all walks of life from public officials and professionals including doctors, lawyers, and accountants, to those accused of street crimes including homicide and drug possession. He has tried over two dozen homicide cases to verdict with greater than 50% of them ending in acquittals, including cases involving video-taped confessions. He most recently achieved an acquittal on all counts for a woman charged with arson and double homicide in Queens County, New York.
