I can't grade a blank page, So Russell would get a "zero"

Lied, misled, withheld information, spoke to me as if I were a bad taste in his mouth, I hired him because he had a reputation of being very "forceful" which to me, was what I thought I wanted dealing with insurance companies, but he also acted that way toward me, He will not follow directions, he do...es what he wants, and then gets frustrated when you ask him to do what you ask... I finally listened to enough, then as usual he will ask you if you just want your file, so I said, yes! Then he placed a lien on any future settlement, and when I asked why, he said because he wrote a letter, so I replied "Well are you gonna finish this case?" He replied "no." Apparently, he only has time to rob the injured, If you need a lawyer, pick anyone else! He'll speak badly of any lawyer you may mention, I can't say enough, to warn you how bad he will leave your situation if you place your security in his hands! You will have to do all your own research, and he will never return your calls.

"Russell is an extremely knowledgable and dedicated attorney. Russell bases his decisions on how to handle a case on what is in the best interests of his clients, not simply what is easy to achieve. He has always been a true fighter for his clients and I would therefore strongly endorse him."

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.
