Child Custody/Family Court

Ok, first off I have to say the professionalism of Toni Ann and Phillip shows itself immediately. Toni Ann's dedication is unlike any I've ever seen. I have had experience with other attorneys and never had I seen such determination. Toni Ann & Phillip were always on call or returned calls immediate...ly which was also very important to us in our dire time. We got the results we sought & that was definitely all owed to Toni Ann's knowledge, passion & her unparalleled fight because ultimately she really CARES! I hope I don't need an attorney, but if I ever do I know to call the Law Offices of Toni Ann Russo.

Custody Jurisdiction

I went to court as “Pro Se” which was a big NO NO then I came to the office of Toni Ann Russo and worked with Phillip Petrullo for “HELP”. Philip was very knowledgeable of the mistakes I made when dealing with my case and before I sought legal counsel. Noticing how Phillip and Ms. Russo communicate...d on steps to mend errors I made the stress I was having began to ease off. When it was time to appear in court I received the verdict I was initially seeking. This office was a blessing to me and got the job done I recommend them and would surely use them again because I am NO Lawyer.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
