Russell Reid Abrutyn

I cannot express enough gratitude for Russell's incredible work handling my husband’s immigration case. My husband had a 20-year-old removal order, and during the litigation of his case, my husband was detained, and removal was being actively pursued by the authorities, making his situation extremely... challenging. Yet, Russell was able to carefully plan and execute the only viable option available to provide him with relief. Despite the case's complexity, Russell demonstrated deep expertise in immigration law and a compassionate commitment to seeing us through every challenge we faced. However, it is Russell’s honesty and integrity that truly set him apart. He never made empty promises and ensured we understood the risks and potential outcomes at each stage. His ethical approach provided us with a realistic picture of the journey ahead, helping us feel informed and prepared every step of the way. Russell’s unwavering transparency and moral commitment gave us peace and reassurance, turning what was once a terrifying and overwhelming situation into a journey we could face with trust and confidence. Russell’s deep understanding of complex and specialized areas of immigration law, often unknown to many attorneys, allows him to uncover rarely considered options. This expertise enables him to present cases in immigration court with multifaceted approaches that maximize the chances of a favorable outcome. In our case, Russell’s strategic approach not only provided us with the best possible chance for success but also prevented the need for a drawn-out battle with immigration, saving us from a prolonged and exhausting back-and-forth. His ability to navigate the intricacies of immigration law led to a more streamlined and effective resolution for us. While our case worked its way through the immigration courts, Russell also assisted us in preparing other immigration petitions that will provide us with additional and possible long-term solutions to secure our future here. From the beginning, it was clear we were in the hands of someone who genuinely cares about his clients and their families. Thanks to Russell’s diligence, dedication, and strategic approach, we finally have hope again and can focus on our future together. Russell and all the members of the firm’s office are responsive, friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. Retaining Russell and working with Abrutyn Law was the absolute best decision we made. If you’re looking for an immigration attorney who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and unfailingly honest in his advocacy, I wholeheartedly recommend Russell. This experience has been life-changing, and we could not have achieved this without him.

Words are insufficient to express the gratitude that my husband and I have for Mr. Abrutyn and his staff for their hard work and professionalism over the course of three years. He reached out to me in 2021 and offered his assistance despite our doubts and apprehension. Mr. Abrutyn painstakingly put... together my husband’s immigrant petition with detail and precision. He put not only his client FIRST but also invested time and effort to address my concerns and questions as the petitioner. He explained the complex immigration system using plain and simple language that we could absorb and understand. It wasn’t a barrier for Mr. Abrutyn that we were liaising with him from another continent- Australia. He responded to our e- mails promptly, allayed our anxiety and provided us with reassurance without distorting the truth and reality which we greatly appreciated. Mr. Abrutyn was able to accomplish a feat that multiple lawyers were unable to. After almost 25 years of waiting, my husband was able to get his immigrant petition approved, thanks to Mr. Abrutyn! His case was extremely complex due to deportation but this did not deter Mr. Abrutyn from giving my husband’s case his all. His positivism, encouragement and support gave us the will to go on despite the almost insurmountable barriers we encountered. His staff deserve to be acknowledged as well for their professionalism, diligence and care. They made sure that our documents were pristine, accurate and truthful. It is true that people have the power to transform lives and this is exactly what Mr. Abrutyn has done. Now my husband and I have the opportunity to return to the United States, live and work here WITHOUT being separated from each other. Mr. Abrutyn thoroughly understood and respected the unbreakable bond of our 28-year marriage which was definitely worth fighting for. He was not just our lawyer- he became our advocate, friend and cheerleader through this roller-coaster ride over the course of many years. Thank you, Russell and Team! May God bless you and your families for transforming our lives! God bless America- our Home!!! We give glory and honor to God as we know that it was by His hand that my husband got his petition approved!

We hired Russell to help with my Green Card application after reading many excellent reviews - all of which proved to be correct. Going through the application process with Russell, and the helpful staff at his office, was as straightforward as could be. When the time came to fill out the applica...tion forms and gather evidence, we understood exactly what was needed on our end and Russell's office walked us through it. Seeing the final application package they submitted - it must have taken hours of work on their part to compile. When there were road bumps along the way, Russell was incredibly helpful at explaining what was going on and what our next steps were. Also, he and his office were really responsive, answering emails and phone calls quickly. Overall, the decision to hire Russell made the application experience a positive one.

Russell Abrutyn is the best! This was our second time for the same court proceedings (the first time we lost) so this time I went to many different lawyers and it was one of those lawyers who sent me to talk to Mr. Abrutyn. Let me tell you it was like night & day. Mr. Abrutyn is very knowledgeable & ...always made you feel comfortable even when nervous, he always was prompt in answering any questions we had. Alexis was also great, she always knew it was me on the phone & would always be helpful. We won our case and we are continuing to work with Mr. Abrutyn until my husband has his citizenship certificate in his hands. My family and I are very thankful that we had Mr. Abrutyn represent us! Thank you Mr. Abrutyn!!

He always helped me considerably with my questions and he is VERY organized, which is very important to me. He h...as great attention to details. All the questions that I could have about my process, he answered immediately, over the phone or through e-mails. He supported me from the beginning to the end and I am very grateful for him. Additionally, big thanks to Alexis, which is very professional, organized and kind. Thanks Mr. Abrutyn. Thanks for everything.
