Straightforward, hard-working

Russell and his team are excellent! They helped me through my bankruptcy and were available every step of the way to answer my questions and expedite all the procedures. I highly recommend them!

Getting hit head-on by a drunk driver was scary...

Russell and his team have gained my utmost respect. Getting injured seriously is scary. Suffering a head injury and being unable to think clearly makes it that much worse. A year and a half after having been hit head-on by a drunk driver, Russell and his team have represented and fought for me...and... I couldn't be happier with how he handled this. He was an advocate for me since day one, took the heat off of me (from the other party's attorneys), and has gotten me a very fair settlement. I give him my highest recommendation. If you're thinking about it, go with Russell...you won't be disappointed.

Best of the Best

Russell Nicolet is truly the best of the best. He is trustworthy, and man of integrity, character and compassion. From my initial phone call to the day we settled, he answered my unending questions, eased my anxieties and walked me through every step of the way. I had medical bills from the car ...accident piling up even before I was discharged from the hospital. I handed everything over to Russell and he took care of it all. He battled the insurance company head on when they tried to minimize the depth of my injuries, and through his persistence we got the maximum settlement possible. My car accident changed my life. I am forever grateful to Russel and his entire team for their expertise, dedication and guidance throughout the entire process.

The best!

I thought Russell and his team did an excellent job. He was able to take a distressing situation and make it quite painless with care and no judgement. I was confident in his skills, knowledge and ability to take care of everything. I never had to wait long for a response to a question or for paperwo...rk to be completed. I highly recommend him.

Did a fantastic job.

I was very impressed with Russell Nicolet. Very professional, and always made me feel like he had time for whatever questions I had. He made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier. He went above and beyond what was just needed in my case. I highly recommend Russell Nicolet.

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.
