Phil has represented me for years and worked very hard on my case. Over the many years working with him on my case, he became more than just my lawyer, but also a trusted friend. I highly recommend him!
"I have worked with Mr. Russo in both professional and non professional capacities. He is unfailingly polite and courteous, even in the midst of difficult divorces. I always look forward to working with Mr. Russo on cases."
"Mr. Russo served as the Guardian ad litem in one of my cases. He was extremely thorough in his investigation and it was a joy to work with him. As a new attorney, he was exceedingly helpful and shared first-rate advice with me."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mr. Russo for a considerable time and have known him to be a highly competent and effective attorney, as well as a professional with the highest integrity."
"I've had the pleasure of having Phil on the other side of the aisle in several cases over the years. He often combines keen intellect with common sense in his legal arguments and steadfastly fights for his clients' positions. He is an asset to our legal community."
"Phil is a valuable resource on divorce and other family law issues. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience in these areas and is always responsive to my requests for assistance. Cases involving divorce and family law issues are often times difficult for the families involved and Phil is a compassionate and professional advocate for his clients."
"I have known Phil Russo, and his work, for many years. He is highly respected by attorneys and judges all across the area. His representation is of the highest quality. I often recommend him for Family or Business Law matters. I am proud to endorse and recommend him as an excellent, honest attorney."
