Former GM warranty analyst joins RockPoint Law as attorney

Paul Wrubel has joined RockPoint Law P.C. after nearly six years on General Motors’ warranty-claims side, where he handled and supervised dispute resolution work. The move adds an attorney with manufacturer-side experience as the firm expands lemon-law and warranty representation for consumers nationwide.

Why it matters: - Paul Wrubel’s move from General Motors’ warranty-claims operation to consumer-side lemon law work gives RockPoint Law P.C. an attorney who knows how defect and warranty disputes are evaluated from the manufacturer side. - The hire could matter for consumers whose vehicles face repeated repair attempts, because warranty cases often turn on repair records, claim handling and documentation. - RockPoint Law P.C. says the firm has recovered more than $50 million for consumers and handled more than 3,000 cases as of October 2026.

What happened: - RockPoint Law P.C. announced on October 28, 2026, that Paul Wrubel joined the firm as an attorney. - Wrubel previously spent nearly six years supporting General Motors’ legal staff on warranty claims. - At RockPoint Law, Wrubel will represent consumers with new, used or leased vehicles that still have defects after repeated repair attempts.

The details: - Wrubel worked at General Motors from August 2020 to February 2025 and again from June 2025 to October 2026. - He advanced to senior legal warranty claims analyst during that time. - His work included evaluating, assigning and negotiating warranty claims. - Wrubel supervised GM’s dispute resolution teams and managed a team of up to 10 people handling pre-suit matters. - His experience also includes fraud litigation and other commercial disputes. - Wrubel earned his law degree from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Law. - He is admitted to practice in Michigan. - RockPoint Law said Wrubel will handle lemon law and breach-of-warranty claims for owners and lessees of cars, trucks, SUVs and electric vehicles. - The firm brings claims under state lemon laws and the federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. - RockPoint Law staff works with clients in English and Spanish. - The firm’s Manhasset office is at 1129 Northern Blvd., Suite 404, Manhasset, NY 11030. - RockPoint Law says free case reviews are available by phone at (516) 550-3323 or at rockpointlaw.com.

Between the lines: - Wrubel’s background suggests RockPoint Law wants more direct insight into how manufacturers review, challenge and resolve warranty claims. - The hire also fits the firm’s consumer-focused pitch: vehicles that disrupt jobs and family routines can create high-stakes paper trails, and legal strategy often depends on those records. - Wrubel said cases often turn on the repair history, including what failed, when it failed and how many attempts were made to fix it. - Steven Nassi, RockPoint Law’s managing partner, said Wrubel understands how warranty claims are evaluated and resolved and has shown a real commitment to consumers.

What's next: - Wrubel is expected to begin handling consumer warranty and lemon law matters as part of RockPoint Law’s existing caseload. - RockPoint Law will continue pursuing claims tied to defective vehicles, warranty disputes and recall-related claims nationwide. - The firm says its staff will keep supporting clients in both English and Spanish.

The bottom line: - RockPoint Law is betting that a former GM warranty analyst can turn manufacturer-side experience into an edge for consumers fighting vehicle defect claims.
