Great Lawyer

Russell is a great attorney. He explains everything about your case to you. He does not talk down to you like so many other lawyers. I would recommend Russell to anyone who is looking for a great attorney.

  • 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.
