"After acting unethically in my family Case I submitted a complaint regarding his conduct An investigation was opened against him. He was given an option to avoid being disbarred again the resolution was the following: Mr. Farbstein has resigned as a mediator and has agreed not to do mediations in the future. You will be receiving a letter and a copy of the order of dismissal of the case from our office. Florida Dispute Resolution Center Office of the State Courts Administrator Mr Farbstein Disappeared hours at a time while he hid n his office; during that time he decided to bill the hours he claimed to have been “working” he also decided to lie to me and to the other party claiming that we both were Demanding things we never discussed in the past nor ever requested Mr. Farbstein to negotiate for us. He also offered to give me personal information in regards to the other party while he mediated which was unethical. The secretary would cover for him and claim (by yelling) that he was in the office just writing up notes although when he was asked for the notes or any documentation on the 12 hours he took to write these He had nothing .Provided nothing. The secretary would cover for him and claim that he was in the office just writing up notes although when he was asked for the notes or any documentation on the 12 hours he took to write these notes or reach a resolve, he came up empty he has various complaints while he is inappropriate with women taking photographs of them in his office hoping to keep it for “his file” This man is not mentally able to conduct a professional practice of law in any capacity beware stay away! For original documents please contact me directly I will be happy to share for I am unable to attach any images or documents to this review. See yelp. Office of the State Courts Administrator Revoked his ability to mediate, if he is recommended to you by the courts please be advised he is not to practice mediation any longer. This man is inappropriate trying to sexualize his staff and clients. He has zero respect for women. Just another sexual predator in a suit. BEWARE STAY AWAY DO NOT BE IN A POSITION TO BE A FEMALE ALONE WITH THIS MAN. FYI HIS WIFE (whom works there) IS AN ACCOMPLICE TO ALL OF HIS FOUL BEHAVIOR. SEE YELP REVIEW."

"Mr. Farbstein is a brilliant person and attorney. His analytical ability and legal acumen is second to none. An acquaintance of mine who hired Mr. Farbstein for a difficult divorce and child custody case recommended Mr. Farbstein to me because my first attorney did not meet my expectations. I established a strong partnership with Mr. Farbstein, and his ability to think strategically impressed me from the beginning. What sets Mr. Farbstein apart is that he consistently demonstrated a caring attitude for our children—and continued to do so after my case was settled."
