Would highly recommend Russ Law Group

Outstanding help from Lisa Russ and her legal assistant Denise Lopes in helping me in my duties as executor of my friend's estate. Everything was new to me, and Lisa and Denise guided me in all the right directions and were always there whenever I needed them.

An Invaluable Asset

I had the pleasure of working with Lisa and her staff as the executor of my father's estate. Her compassion and capabilities were immediately obvious from our first meeting, and given the choice again I wouldn't choose anyone else to guide my family through this difficult process. Lisa was willing to... go the extra mile time and time again, through multiple house sale attempts and other significant surprises, and honestly I couldn't have done it without the knowledge and the efforts of her office. Thanks so much for everything~

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Ms. Russ for over ten years. She is an extremely conscientious and dedicated attorney with substantial knowledge and experience, particularly in the areas of probate and estate planning. I know that I can count on her to provide me with assistance when probate or estate planning issues arise in cases that I am working on. Ms. Russ and I worked together recently on a matter and I was very impressed by her level of expertise particularly with the probate of the estate that was involved. I will definitely refer clients to Ms. Russ for probate and estate planning matters in the future."

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.
