Excellent lawyer

Russell has helped me with several matters both personal and business related. He was very detailed, professional, and handled everything very quickly. He took the time to explain things to me and broke everything down to make sure I understood all sides so we could make the best decisions for my sit...uations. I always felt like he was on my side and helping me make the best decisions not just the easy ones. I will be using Russell and Coastal Law with any future legal matters.

Owner, Right Coast Builders

Russel has drafted and reviewed many contracts for my business. He is always prompt, professional and makes sure I am able to fully grasp the content of anything we are signing. I highly recommend any individual or business in need of legal counsel to reach out to Russel and his team.

Posted by anonymous | September 25, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Excellent Firm

I hired Mr. Fry's firm to defend me when I was charged with first offense DUI. Not only did they deliver results on all fronts that exceeded expectations, they were friendly, professional, and excellent to work with. I would highly recommend Coastal Law to anyone in need of representation in the grea...ter Myrtle Beach area.

Great lawyer

Russell Fry @ Coastal Law is an outstanding attorney and has always been helpful, informative and does his very best whenever we need him, whether for a law suit he handled or taking care of my husbands estate and helping me with my Will. He made the process easy and always willing to answer any ques...tions. I would and do highly recommend Russell and the Coastal Law Firm.

Posted by Nicholas Stavrakis | April 10, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Professional, Compassionate and presented the information in a completely understandable manner!

Mr. Fry guided our family through the establishment of an extensive estate planning program including establishing a Power of Attorney document, Medical Directive document and Last Will and Testament for both of our elderly parents and made the entire process so incredibly easy and stress free that i...t felt like we were working with a truly understanding and compassionate member of our family! Never once did we feel confused or uninformed during any of our visits. I have and will continue to recommend Attorney Fry to friends, family members and business associates alike. He is terrific.

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.
