What Rubin Lublin, LLC does

Rubin Lublin, LLC is a privately held boutique real estate law firm founded in April 2009 by Glen Rubin and Peter Lublin in Atlanta, Georgia. The firm delivers residential and commercial real estate closings, mortgage default services (foreclosure, bankruptcy, deed in lieu/loan modification), landlord/tenant representation, real estate and title litigation, and title services through affiliated agencies across six southeastern states: Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and Arkansas. Its client base spans the largest national mortgage servicers, banks, and institutional fund managers down to individual buyers, sellers, lenders, and landlords, served through a partner-led model with 8 partners, approximately 15 associates, and additional support staff totaling a firm-wide headcount of 101-250.

The firm operates on a professional services revenue model with a mix of flat-fee transactional pricing (a publicly disclosed residential closing schedule with a $550 settlement fee) and hourly billing for litigation matters, supplemented by title insurance premiums through partner underwriters. Underlying operations run on a proprietary customized case management system maintained by an internal IT team, supporting compliance and per-client workflow customization. Go-to-market is direct relationship-based enterprise sales combined with industry association visibility (MBA, ALTA, USFN, GAMP) and content marketing; the firm has not raised external institutional capital and is wholly owned and operated by its name partners plus lateral additions.

Distinctive positions include ALTA Best Practices certification (2025) and consecutive USFN Awards of Excellence (2020-2021), and a March 2025 expansion into Florida via acquisition of the Gilbert Garcia Group mortgage default practice, which added a Tampa office, Managing Attorney Michelle Garcia Gilbert as partner, and additional legal and support staff. The firm differentiates on boutique-scale attention, multi-state coverage, and operational metrics such as 40-60 day non-judicial foreclosure timelines and 24-hour REO dispossessory turnaround for banking clients.
