A+++++ attorney and caring person

Russell has been the best attorney I've ever had. He helped me in a few different cases for my divorce. He helped me get primary custody of my son which I am grateful for. If you are looking for an attorney that actually cares about his clients then you need to go and see Russell. He has been a godse...nd to me and my son. Steve Wilson

An honest attorney

Attorney Russell Farbiarz is extremely knowledgeable in estate matters and the laws in Pennsylvania. He and his team have advised me during the execution of my mother's estate and her Last Will and Testament. Everything has been handled professionally and he has kept me informed along the way.

Probate lawyer | Apr 10

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Russell is an outstanding general practitioner and a true expert in Estate Administration. In an age of constantly changing laws, he diligently invests the time to keep abreast of the changes in his practice areas. His clients are well served by his all-too-rare practice of referring clients to other experts for matters in which he does not specialize. Having worked with him as opposing counsel, co-counsel, and as a referring attorney, he has earned my highest recommendation."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
