Mr. Ruben Peña is a major ripoff. I paid him a retainer of $10000.00 to be represented in a domestic violence court case. After seeing him in his office he told me that he would send a letter to the court saying he was representing me and this was never done. On the day of the court hearing, Mr. Peña did not even show up to court. Luckily I explained this situation to the judge and he assigned me a public defender, not so luckily, public defenders suck and I did not have any more money to get a decent attorney to represent me.
When I tried to contact Mr. Ruben Peña about returning my retainer he kept making excuses and then would ignore my emails, texts, and phone calls. This all happened in 2019 and to this date, Mr. Peña has refused to return my retainer and has blown off every phone call, email, fax, voicemail, etc made to his office in regards to this matter. I had to move to San Francisco because my reputation was ruined because my attorney was not able to defend me properly and I lost in court.
