Russell D. Brown

Mr. Brown has gone above and beyond to help local business owners - he regularly speaks on business formation and start-up topics through the Entrepreneurship Center and the local SBDC office. We so appreciate his expertise and willingness to explain the basics to those interested in going into busi...ness or furthering their existing business. He clearly cares to promote local entrepreneurs, as he gives his time so willingly. Thanks Russ!

Mr. Brown has worked for me on a number of legal issues in the past, and I continue to use him as my primary attorney. He has provided sound advice concerning tenant contracts, and small business structuring. When I have brought him legal issues outside his primary concentration, he has advised me w...ithin the scope of his experience to include being upfront about the matter then referring me to solid counsel when needed for a specific issue.

My husband and I used Mr. Brown for the creation of our wills - since we have children, we needed to be sure that they would be cared for by the appropriate people in the event of our demise. Mr. Brown advised us on how to set up a trust, and to help ensure that our children's inheritance can't be '...frittered' away by either the children or their guardians. I'm very pleased.

Having worked with Russ Brown as my lawyer, he fulfilled all the necessary duties. He wrote an LLC business package for me and my business partner and helped us to complete all the necessary parts. Russ worked as a lawyer and consultant in a real estate project. He wrote a contract for the busi...ness and a prospective buyer, helping us in all the legal aspects of the real estate offer. He did necessary research, arranged and attended meetings, and provided information that was pertinent to the business. During the time that he was representing the business, he was deployed to Iraq. While he was gone, he secured another lawyer to represent us and carry out his duties and responsibilities. Upon his return, he stepped back into his responsibilities without hesitation. I was very satisfied with his work. Russ also helped with several other legal issues for my personal family. He settled the legal issues by writing letters and making phone calls to the involved parties. All issues were settled favorably and were done pro bono. I can't thank him enough for the work he has done for me and my family. Russ Brown is a knowledgeable, responsible, and dependable lawyer and in the event I would need legal advice in the future, I would not hesitate to call him. I would also recommend him to friends and family. Respectfully, Jane Vargo
