Client

Russell was very thorough, explaining the entire process in an educational and calming way. He was very knowledgeable on what steps are necessary to finalize the issue at hand. I would recommend him highly to anyone that is looking for representation or guidance in a legal case.

Lifesaver

Russel’s intervention was integral in saving our gym. After two years throwing money away on attorneys who were unable to help us deal with the false reporter who tried to destroy our business, we were referred to Russ by a friend who is an Olympic champion. Russ did not stop until we received jus...tice from SafeSport. The damage done by the false reporter was mitigated when SafeSport finally cleared me to return to full participation as a Coach, Judge, and Club Owner. Russ never made us feel as though our needs were a bother or that he was more concerned with getting paid than with helping us receive a just outcome.

Compassionate, Empathetic and Reassuring

Russell took over my case after I experienced numerous delays with USAG. He put my mind at ease and allowed me to focus on my day to day life ...........he took over worrying about my case. He communicated with me at every turn and finally prevailed in getting my name cleared. He is tenacious, gen...uine and sincere. I highly recommend Russell.

Extremely Professional, Considerate, and Ethical

Russell was extremely professional in his entire process of resolving my case within Safe Sport and getting my name removed from the suspended members list as well as resume my career as a professional athlete and coach. He was very knowledgeable about the entire process (which to be honest is extrem...ely annoying and would have been impossible to take on without an Attorney as experienced as Russell). I am forever grateful of his professionalism and true knowledge of all laws and processes applicable to help resolve my case. Myself and my family are extremely grateful for his help and would refer him to anyone looking for an ethical and professional Attorney.

Loyal and tenacious service

It took 4 months, but thanks to Russell's tenacity and dedication in representing my case, I am able to return to work. He always communicated well (I live on the opposite side of the country from him), remained positive, and kept my morale up through the entire process. I will always be grate...ful for his service on my behalf.

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.
