Great Attorney

Tobi was an amazing lawyer. She represented me in a DUI case and did a superb job. She is honest, responsive, and caring. I would recommend her to anyone and would use her in the future.

Tobi: She is one "Fierce" Lawyer! and anyone who undermines or under estimates her abilities...Shame on them!!

Tobi's skills, expertise, and overall personality, are like a cool burst of fresh air that blows your way on a hot sweltering day when you just don't know what else to do. With the heat being the judicial system, she gets in their and will exercise every avenue possible that will be best for you as a... client. Tobi represented my husband in two cases that were both ongoing at the same time. One case outcome had a direct impact on the other. Thanks to her kowledge, the intial case turned out well for him. She represented him to the fullest. Then due to a clerical error on the court's part, the good turned into a nightmare that went on for 4 long months. Tobi went above and beyond the call of duty as a lawyer. She did not back down for one moment. Giving up, quiting, or go with the flow were no where in her options. If you want a certain outcome she will do her best to make sure it happens. With all that said, the out come we sought... happened. My husband came home last week! It took Tobi 6 weeks to fix something that could have stretched on for more than a year. She's AWESOME! My husband and I have already recommended her to several people and plan to continue our recommendations. We plan to continue our business relationship with Tobi and the Dolfman Law Firm with some business ventures. We will forever be grateful to Tobi. With the holidays around the corner as well as our childen's birthdays, she truly blessed us with not only what she does but who she is. I can go on and on about Tobi. But the bottom line is: She is one "Fierce" Lawyer! and anyone who undermines or under estimates her abilities...Shame on them!!

Amazing Lawyer, And easy on the eyes

Well Connected terrier that won't back down to a doberman. She is Direct, concise , and aggressive only when situation calls. Unlike most female lawyers does she does not carry around that huge chip on her shoulder. 10 out of 10. I would put her up against any 60 year old Top Gun. Knowledge and ...wisdom far beyond her years. Keep your eyes peeled this one is going right to the top.

Good work

She is a fairly new attorney at law with the savey of some of the veteran lawyers such as Kathlene Martin or Perudo junior. She is very aggressive in the court room and will fight for you. She also keeps you informed and takes advice from her clients on their specific cases. In my opinion she will be... among the elite real soon so get her on your team now.

"Ms. Russeck is one of the most talented attorneys in Philadelphia. She has won jury trials for clients in cases where conviction seems all but certain due to signed confessions and other awful evidence. I highly recommend Ms. Russeck."
