The Russ Firm & Attorney Mike Russ

The Russ Firm was built to give injured people the kind of representation big companies take for granted, with a lawyer who actually picks up the phone.

Attorney Mike Russ, Jr.

Too often, companies put profit over people. My job is to make that choice expensive.

Mike represents people in litigation against the perceived powerful, especially profit-driven corporations and the insurers behind them. He has handled cases and advised clients all over the world in serious personal injury, wrongful death, professional negligence, and criminal defense.

He's a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a group limited to trial lawyers who have won million- and multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements. Fewer than 1% of U.S. lawyers qualify. He's also the person who'll actually pick up your case, explain it plainly, and keep you in the loop.
