Review

From the time of my accident and all the way through arbitration, Colleen Russo was with me every step of the way. Her expertise and counseling was genuine, thorough, and instrumental in the settlement of my accident case. Not only would I recommend her, I consider her like family.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have routinely recommended Colleen Russo to my clients who have suffered injuries because of the negligence of another. She has likewise assisted my friends and family members with the utmost professionalism. Colleen has always been prompt and thorough in answering questions that developed after each accident. My referrals were appreciative to learn what immediate steps needed to be taken so that they could focus on their immediate medical needs. As a fellow lawyer practicing in the area of Intellectual Property Law, I am always looking for the best lawyer to refer cases in areas of the law that I do not handle. Colleen Russo is at the top of my list for personal injury/accident attorneys."

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.
