      "Russell B. McCormick was very direct and upfront about everything, laying out all the options available to me."
      A friend who went through a similar situation recommended me this Law Office. I was a bit nervous about talking to a lawyer since it was my first time having to need one. Russell B. McCormick was very direct and upfront about everything, laying out all the options available to me. He was also quite accommodating with my work schedule and kept me up to date with anything that came up or that I needed to do. I’m so grateful he was able to reduce my charge, with the eligibility of getting it sealed later on.
      - Kevin
      "Aggressive for the Best Outcome"
      All around a great lawyer. We were able to have all the charges against me dismissed. He was aggressive in reaching the best outcome for me and he did it at a cost no one would have considered.
