I had a phone consultation with Chris Russo, and I couldn't be more impressed. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to truly understand my situation. Even over the phone, I felt heard, supported, and informed. They explained everything clearly, gave me honest guidance, and never made me feel rushed. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice — a true professional who genuinely cares.

I found Chris through my employer's MetLife legal plan coverage. I saw he had great reviews so called his office. We explained our situation to the person who answered the phone and soonest they could get us to connect with Chris would be Monday (it was Friday). We asked if he even has 5 mins if he can squeeze us in and they said they'd see what they can do. About 10 mins later we get a call from Chris and he spent about 40 mins on the phone with us answering all of our questions. He is very professional, knowledgeable, listens well and had a good demeanor all around that made us feel comfortable to ask questions. We left the call feeling prepared about next steps of our situation and he let us know we can contact him anytime for more advice. Highly recommend.

If you need an attorney who is fair, compassionate and a straight shooter, do yourself a HUGE favor and Chris Russo. I hired big law firm (who shall remain nameless) to represent me to quickly learn I was just a number. I reached out to Chris to get a consultation and he guided me on the best path to take. Chris thank you from the bottom of my heart Sincerely Elsie P.

I had a great experience working with Chris Russo on a valet parking damage claim. He provided clear and practical advice that helped me navigate a challenging situation. His professionalism and willingness to assist made the entire process much smoother. Thanks to his guidance, the valet parking company’s claim team reopened and overturned my case, and a check is now being shipped to me. I highly recommend Chris to anyone in need of legal support. Thank you for your excellent service!

I spoke to Mr. Russo at length about a legal matter yesterday and was very impressed by his knowledge of the law, empathy, and code of ethics. In a world where attorneys don't always have your best interest in mind, Mr. Russo definitely does. He listened thoughtfully, answered all of my (many) questions, fully addressed my concerns and gave great advice. The reassurance he offered as well as the humor he was able to find definitely brightened my day and made me feel a lot better given the situation. I saved his information and most definitely will be using his services again should the need arise. I absolutely recommend Chris Russo at Russo Law. Many, many thanks!

Chris Russo is an excellent attorney with a heart for people. Many years ago, when an insurance company refused to pay for anything after an auto accident, he helped my family recover far more than I thought would be possible. Years later he still remembered me and was able to point me in the right directly on another legal challenge. Highly recommended. You won't be disappointed.

I contacted Chris at Russo Law through the recommendation of the FL Law Board. I did this because I was st my wits end for a civil case that I was a defendant in. I tried contacting all those big names you hear on TV and the radio and none wanted to give me the time of day because I wasn't the one looking for money. Chris understood this. He not only steered me on the right direction. He did so with understanding, knowledge, and compassion. The final solution allowed for an amicable compromise that that was seen as a win for all involved. This would have never happened without, not just the help, but the understanding Chris brought to the conversation. I will say this. Why call the other guys who will blow you off when they can't see dollar signs a plenty and headlines galore. Call someone who walks you off that emotional cliff and has the knowledge and compassion to help you when in need. Thanks again Chris. It's not often these days when someone can make you feel like you found a friend the first time they picked up the phone and answered your call.

Chris called my husband just minutes after we had inquired online about an issue we were having. He spent time answering my husband's questions and giving informative and expert advice. Although we don't have an actual legal case at this time, I would highly recommend Chris because of his attention, knowledge and expertise. We will certainly use him with any further legal issues.

I reached out to Chris Russo's office to an issue with a business. The first time I called, the office listened to my issue, wrote down my contact information and set up an appointment for Chris for the same day. He called right on time and provided excellent advice and helped me walk through the process. I got my issue resolved the next day! Chris even followed up after to make sure I was satisfied with the resolution. Will 100% contact Russo Law in the future if I have any legal issues that need to be addressed.

I called the Florida Bar Association and asked for a recommendation on an attorney that was well respected and thoroughly experience in dealing with Insurance Companies. Without hesitation the suggested I call Chris Russo. After carefully listening to me, Attorney Russo felt that I was not in serious jeopardy and that I should save my money. I have never met a lawyer who is so kind and caring. I think he goes straight to heaven! Michael Stumpf Colts Neck NJ

I have dealt with a few attorneys over the years, and you typically talk to a receptionist wait a week or more, get a crazy retainer fee you must pay and then the attorney begins charging for every email, every phone call etc. Chris had some availability, called me back the same day personally to figure out the issue I am having and even advised ways to avoid litigation. Not to avoid business, but to do the right thing for me the customer. Other attorneys likely would have dragged me through months of litigation costing me thousands in the process. Honesty is the best policy and from my dealings I really like how forthcoming Chris Russo is and willing to help.

Russo Law is amazing. I’ve had to use attorneys in the last couple of years and it has been a hassle. This is not the case at Russo Law.

I want to thank Chris Russo and Fernanda Kretzer for being there for me and my husband for the last two years since my husband's accident. Chris and Fernanda were our advocates during an awfully hard time for us, and were a very diligent, prepared resourceful team. They made me feel like they sincerely cared about our case and they were ready to fight for us. The way that Chris connected with us, in my opinion is key when you are about to trust someone to handle your case. Chris was always punctilious and answered every question we had. I am eternally grateful for the talented service that was provided, and I hereby recommend Russo Law without reservation.

Chris assisted my husband and I recently in creating our wills. He took my call immediately, I didn't even have to wait for an appointment. He explained everything in detail, drew up the will and had it emailed to me in only a few hours. He made a difficult topic absolutely painless. He was easy to talk to and extremely professional at the same time - a hard combo to come by in an attorney. I also had a separate legal issue to discuss and he allowed me to run it by him during that same consultation regarding our will. When I asked how much he charged for the separate legal matter, he was so gracious and told me not to worry about it. Talk about amazing customer service! I will definitely recommend him to anyone that is in need of legal advice in the future.

I'm new in the State of Florida and acquiring a morally good person in their profession is essential to me. Chris Russo listened to my predicament with an automotive claim. I was pleased with his quick turnaround time. Providing several options to choose from was comforting. He spoke in laymen terms so everything was crystal clear. His emolument was a big plus too! I truly believe I have found myself an attorney when seeking legal assistance.

Mr Russo began representing me prior to opening his own office. He and his paralegal were always professional and up to date with the progress of the case. Any question I had they provide me with answers in a manner which was easily comprehended. When he stepped out on his own and invited me to allow him to continue to represent me in the case I was initially conflicted about leaving an established firm and following him not certain of what support staff he had in place. Nevertheless I stuck with him on my case and I have no regrets. He carried my case to its final outcome. I found him to be not only a competent attorney but very ethical as well. Chris I wish you great success in you practice. I will not hesitate to seek your counsel should I need someone in your area of practice again. Randall T

I was referred to Mr. Russo by a very good friend of mine who happens to be a lawyer. I was in a tragic car accident on Christmas eve of 2014, in which I was traveling with my boyfriend, daughter and niece. We were hit head on by a drunk driver, killing my boyfriend and sending the rest of us into intensive care with multiple surgeries. Mr. Russo was a Godsend to me. He gave me his cellphone number and told me to contact him any time, which I did whenever a question would arise. This was the most tragic time of my life. So many emotions and uncertainties, however Mr. Russo was in my corner and I felt assured that he would never let me down. He honestly cared and that is priceless. I still have his number saved in my phone as Bulldog! Thank you Chris ❤🙏😇

Chris is the nicest, and by far the most receptive/ available lawyer Ive ever retained. My case was not very big financially for either him or I, but you would've never known that based on how he treated me through the process. His paralegal Fernanda is also amazing, as was the chiropractor Dr. Julie he referred me to for my injuries. I highly recommend hiring Chris, you wont be Sorry.
