Subject matter expert!

Mr. Marlowe was superb in his profession of getting the entire process to the end point! No games, no prolonging, no feeding into opposing counsels’ time wasting effort! I greatly appreciated his direct and to the point direction and his demeanor was always professional! My child paternity case only ...took as long as it did due to opposing counsel dragging their feet and Mr. Marlowe’s experience showed as he maneuvered through the minutiae! His impressive skills were when he was able to support my needs of the case subtracting the emotional aspect and submitting it through fact and law! Mr. Marlowe’s communication is top notch as you are never left uninformed and Jill in his office is a finely tuned machine who never misses a beat and is on top of everything! I recommend this team to anyone looking for a finalized end to the family law issues! He’s not the guy to play get back at the ex. He’s a professional who knows his trade and will support what’s right from start to end! Thanks again Russ and Jill!

Attorney Russell George Marlowe

Yesterday I had a meeting with Russell Marlowe, and I must say I was extremely impressed with how quickly he came up with answers to my concern on my divorce case. With in minutes he knew directly the answer and not only that, he immediately went to his law book to find cases that were to be refere...nced. It was refreshing to say the least to meet this attorney who acted swiftly and confident in coming up to a solution without dragging and complicating the case. I would strongly recommend that anyone that needs an attorney for a divorce matter hire Mr Marlowe. He seeks your best interest first, yet doesn't drag things out as so many others do. Compassion and Efficiency... A Unique Quality in a Divorce Attorney.

Wonderful Lawyer

I am hard to please and very seldom write any reviews, much less positive ones, but with Russell Marlowe I felt I had to. Mr. Marlowe represented me and still is during my ongoing child support/child custody case. I was previously representing myself (BIG MISTAKE) before hiring Mr. Marlowe. Every tim...e I speak to Mr. Marlowe I am more at ease and confident about the end result. Mr. Marlowe demonstrates a deep knowledge of case law, superb courtroom skills, and is very reliable. He has helped me focus on the most important aspects of the case. He is very understanding of my situation through every step of the process. I appreciate his patience and attention to details. I feel that he is truly on my team and wants to finalize the situation as much as I do. His paralegal, Jill is excellent as well and a great asset to the team. If you are ever in need of a family law attorney I highly recommend Russell Marlowe!

Excellent Representation and Knowledge of the Law!

I hired Russ Marlowe to bring my case to court for "Modification of Timesharing, Parenting Plan, etc" and could not be happier with my decision to hire this attorney. He handles himself extremely well in the courtroom and very importantly, has astute knowledge of the law. He is a professional that... has a keen, yet cool demeanor but certainly not to be underestimated. Mr. Marlowe is very assertive with other attorney's but continues to maintain professionalism with your interests in mind. (Open lines of communication equates to information!) I couldn't have hired a better attorney. I'm a proud father who now has my daughter living with me as a result of his hard work and determination! Thank you Sir!

"I endorse this lawyer. I can confidently refer anyone to Russ, knowing full well that he will approach a difficult situation with a sensible, goal-oriented approach. Russ does not stoke client emotions in order to increase fees. Russ is a past president of the West Pasco Bar Association and was willing to rejoin the Board for additional terms of service. I know my opinion of Russ is shared by many colleagues as well as the judiciary. And let's not forget that he is a great Florida Gator."
