Top notch

I hired Russell to represent not only myself but also my business. He did both phenomenally. His explanations of what the process would involve, down to the smallest detail, was matched only by his ability to rapidly divulge and relay pertinent information. He was prompt in his responses and always w...ent the extra step to make sure my family was at ease with what to expect moving forward. My livelihood and family’s well being were in potential jeopardy and Russell always made sure he was doing everything within his power to put our lives back on track. Without his invaluable efforts we would have been directionless and lost. I cannot day enough positive things about his work ethics and diligence toward seeing things through to the very end. Thank you for all you have done!

The Real Deal: Master Arbitrator & Excellent Attorney

Attorney Russell Scott Prince represented me and arbitrated my case to my COMPLETE SATISFACTION after an 11 year battle with US National Bank. He accomplished in 6 months what previous attorneys refused to take a stand on and fight. US National Bank never saw the intellect of Attorney Russell Princ...e coming. He is a master at arbitration. He is outstanding in all aspects. His attitude and demeanor is excellent. I would recommend him to any and all who are in need of a dedicated, compassionate, knowledgeable, and loyal attorney.

USA Gymnastics

I was put in touch with Mr. Prince via a mutual peer in the USA Gymnastics community. My name had been put on an advertised "list" of suspended members, unjustifiably, and Russell took it upon himself to make sure that it was immediately removed. He masterfully maneuvered the slow and aloof wheels of... justice, red tape and powers-that-be, and quite rapidly, my name was removed and I was "cleared". He took time out of his personal life to have even called me on a Friday night, while he was out enjoying dinner with friends, to immediately inform me of the "good news"......so as to put my mind "at ease". I very much look forward to a potential team-effort with him in the near future. Russ is the BEST!!

An Attorney That Cares and Produces Results

In addition to his legal expertise, Mr. Prince genuinely cares about his clients and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing help. His persistence and guidance led to resolution of an issue that had been languishing for over seven months after we had satisfied all response requests.

Wonderful, Knowledgable, and Quick!

I had an incredibly defamatory Facebook post written about my business and myself. I own a gymnastics facility and the post was malicious, untrue, and contained serious allegations. I contacted Russ Prince to see what the next steps that I should take were, and he immediately followed up in a matter ...of minutes. He is professional, knows the law and the most expediate solutions, as well as caring. I live in a small town and this could have really damaged my business and my personal reputation. Within an hour of our original contact, he had made contact with the disgruntled individual, had the post down, and given his info for further contact, and made it clear that defamatory, false allegations would not be tolerated against my business. I can’t thank him enough because as a small business owner my reputation is everything. He completely solved my problem in a matter of one hour!! If I could give him more than 5 stars I certainly would. I highly recommend his services to anyone. He’s top of the line and passionate about his clients and their needs!
