One a hell of a lawyer - Russell's war tactics and history knowledge are unique assets when coming into strategy and negotiations. He is a real samurai.

Private Client review:
Russell is an exceptional lawyer who genuinely cares about his clients. During a very complex dowry case, he was able to not only achieve the very best possible outcome but also demonstrate cultural understanding to ensure the client's needs were met.
