I cannot say enough about the positive impact that Russell has made on my life. From the first time I spoke with him it was evident that he truly cared about me as a person and was dedicated to helping me make the best out of a bad situation. I am currently a college student with hopes of applying to... medical school soon. I made a poor decision involving alcohol last semester and was facing an MIC misdemeanor charge. When this first happened, I thought my chances of attending medical school were gone. I had a very rough few days wrestling with the idea that all of my hard work thus far was for nothing. After speaking with Russell, I had full confidence that this incident was something that I could learn from and move past. Not only did he agree to represent me in my case although it was outside of his traditional type of practice, but he insisted that he do it free of charge. Despite his lack of personal gain from the situation, Russell was dedicated and responsive throughout this entire process. He was always happy to talk with me and answer all of my questions and I have always felt like I was his top priority when we were talking. Ultimately, we were able to get the charge dismissed and will soon be moving to expunge the record. Russell has gone above and beyond everything I could have expected from him and has allowed me to have new hope and confidence in pursuing my future education and career.

My fiancè was charged with a serious federal charge in Abilene and we needed an experienced defense lawyer to help us out . The lawyer he first had , was just very unexperienced and did not even want to try to help him out and said all he was able to get my fiancè was 13YEARS . I spoke to multiple... lawyers before speaking to Mr.Lorfing on the phone to try to get him better representation. Every lawyer i spoke to was just trying to sell themself to me and tell me exactly what I wanted to hear but not Mr.Lorfing. As soon as I finished speaking to Mr.Lorfing i knew I wanted him as his lawyer . He is one of the most honest lawyers you will find , he tells you exactly how things are and answers your questions in an honest matter. And I am so happy I did hire him because he is a team player and does not rest until he gets the best deal possible for his clients. He was looking at 13+ years , and now is looking at 5 years thanks to Mr.Lorfing that did not rest until he was able to get him something better . I live in california with a two hour time difference and he still manages to answer my calls or text to answer any questions i have . He also always keeps me updated without even having to ask which is very rare in many lawyers .He is one of the most kindest people i have met . My fiancè feels so much better that he has Russel by his side because Russel makes him feel more then just his client , he makes him feel like where family and he will do everything in his power to help .If you are second guessing about hiring Russel Lorfing don't because this law firm will do everything to help . We thought there was no hope for my fiancè and now thanks to Russel he will be home sooner then we expected !!!!!!!!

This was absolutely the best defense experience I have ever had with an attorney. Not only did he take the time to review my case he went above and beyond in the early stages of the case. He did exactly what he said he was going to do. If he says he is getting it thrown out due to the evidence provid...ed he means it. Absolutely an amazing man and an honest one at that. I would recommend the Lorfing Law firm to anyone who wants a strong defense and an honest attorney. He was a blessing in my life and he truly cares about his clients.

As I write this review My experience with Mr. Lorfing isn’t over, but has already superseded my expectations. Though in life we shouldn’t have any. I have had to use lawyers in the past and for the most part it’s always a similar feeling of “this is just business”. Not the Lorfing firm. Russell does ...all he can to make sure you are comfortable and in clear understanding about what actions are being taken to defend your case. He pushes the limits of the law in the most adamant and humble way, to get the best result he can for You. Anyone questioning who they need to retain, you’ve found your answer. The cards were pretty stacked against me and now I’m able to be back in my home sharing my testimony and I’m very grateful to have the chance. Thank you again Mr. Lorfing !

My husband was charged with a serious federal charge in Abilene and we needed an experienced federal defense lawyer to help us out. We initially went with another local attorney who was more affordable but we quickly learned that was a huge mistake. Federal courts are much different that state cour...ts and it was clear our first attorney didn’t specialize in federal law. Russell Lorfing just so happened to be representing another client at the same time my husband appeared in court for his detention hearing. After seeing Russell in action, it was clear that he was the guy to hire. I followed him out into the hallway and asked if we could hire him. He was professional and composed. Before taking the case, he wanted to meet with us to make sure he could help. After a few hours, he agreed to take our case – but not before asking us a thousand questions to make sure we were a good fit. Over the next few months, Russell was an incredible advocate for my husband and gave us hope when there was none. He regularly communicated with us and made us feel like my husband was his only client. Before we meet Russell, every attorney told us that it was a lost cause – that when the feds charge you, you’re screwed. But Russell fought for us. My husband was looking at a mandatory minimum ten years in federal prison with a maximum presentence of life. He ended up pleading to a much less serious crime and serving less than a year in federal prison. I cannot thank him enough. He wasn’t cheap, but I would have paid ten times that amount to have my husband’s life back. If you’ve been charged with a federal crime in West Texas, Russell Lorfing is THE ATTORNEY you hire. No one else in the area even comes close to his level of experience in federal law. Thank you for fighting so hard for my family. We cannot thank you enough for all your hard work.
