    A Breath of Fresh Air
    In a world full of crooked attorneys, Russell McCormick is a breath of fresh air. Ever since I discovered Mr. McCormick over a decade ago for a speeding ticket that he got dismissed, he’s been not only my, but also everyone I’ve referred to him’s go-to guy. I’ve dealt with my fair share of rotten attorneys that will promise you everything just to get your money and leave you hanging, lie to you, and put you in a worse situation than you came in. Russell is not one of those people. Before he takes on a case he’s not confident about (which he usually is), he will refer you to someone else. Thank you, Russell McCormick! It’s one of the greatest reliefs and smartest decisions to have Russell in my corner!
    Kadin
    Russell truly fights for his clients
    We can’t thank Russell and his team enough. My good friend was facing serious time for a violation of probation, but thanks to their hard work and dedication, he is home with his family instead. Russell truly fights for his clients and made sure he had the best possible outcome, and we will forever be grateful.
    Sara Ann
    Thank You for Your Professionalism

    His care and service is top tier
    I was very much in a bad situation when I hired Mr. McCormick, but when I spoke with him I felt confident he was the right one for the job. Mr. McCormick got my husband's felony warrant case dismissed in two days! This was an outcome we could only dream of! I highly recommend! His care and service is top tier! Worth every penny! We can now move on with our lives! Thank you.

    Got Me the Best Outcome
    Kept me informed about all the issues revolving around my case and got me the best outcome I could’ve gotten.
    Ethan Petrey
    I highly recommend him
    I give Attorney McCormick and his legal team a five-star rating in handling my situation. I stood facing a five-year administrative revocation due to an insurance carrier reporting I had no insurance. Unaware and driving, I was arrested for the same. Attorney McCormick looked at my specific situation in detail, mapped out a strategy involving my input for my personal issue, and came up with a plan to not only get my license back on a hardship, but get my license completely back (no hardship), suspensions were removed, revocation removed, and criminal case for driving with revoked license dropped. I highly recommend him. Whether in court or an administrative day, he was always available to address my concerns. Thank you, Attorney McCormick and team, for getting me fully restored!
    Tony Preston
    If I Could Leave 10 Stars I Would

    Best attorney out there. I got a DUI, and let me tell you, I needed someone on my side to help me through this. Mr. McCormick went to the plate for me and got all my charges dropped. He kept me informed through the whole process and knocked it out of the park. The only person I'll call if I get in a pinch.

    You Can Trust That You Have Found a Solution.
    Hi there, fellow outlaws. After several months of waiting for the ball to drop, the team of Brandy and Mr. McCormick advised me that my case was cleared. Accolades: Mr. McCormick—patience, tolerance, sincere, and diligent. (We did share a little levity.) Brandy—I had the opportunity to meet her in person, truly a diligent and nice lady. They kept me aware and returned all my calls. Closing note: If they take your case, you can trust that you have found a solution. Barry U

    No Stone Was Left Unturned
    Mr. McCormick is a very detailed, professional, and caring attorney. This man made sure that no stone was left unturned; no strategy left unattempted. He took the time to answer any questions I had and even waited patiently while I thought of more. Dorothy and Brandi, his office staff, are so professional and friendly. They made me feel so comfortable and welcomed in the office. Thanks again for your diligent work, Russell!

    Mr. Russell is a great attorney.
    Mr. Russell is a great attorney. I have had him for three of my cases. He did an amazing job. He doesn’t handle you just like a client; he handles you like your family, and he is very honest and upfront with you. I had a great experience with him, and I would recommend him.

    Had All Charges Dropped!
    Russell did a great job for us on our case. He was very professional and took care of everything for us. He kept us informed with everything that was going on and had all charges dropped! Hopefully, we never need him again, but if we do, we know who to call! Thank you again for all your help!
    Sheila Harris
    Great job, Russell!
    I hired Russell for a DUI arrest representation after researching different attorneys in Jacksonville. I couldn't have been more pleased. Russell had multiple charges consolidated into one offense and ultimately was instrumental in having all the charges either dismissed and/or reduced to one charge of 'Reckless Driving.' His due diligence, attention to detail, and communication style prompt me to wholeheartedly endorse Russell for those in need of competent legal counsel. Great job, Russell!
    Chris B.
    He got our case dismissed!
    Mr. McCormick was excellent in the handling of our case. He was 100% transparent with us about all possible outcomes but pulled no punches with respect to fighting for the best (and the just) outcome. He got our case dismissed! He was professional at all times while remaining relatable, always responded and kept us informed, and we would not hesitate to work with him again if ever needed. Thank you, sir!
    Shane McCandless
    Best Lawyer and Office Ever
    Best lawyer and office I have ever dealt with. We called 2:30 PM with a new case for him and by 5 PM he had already gone to see the inmate and was working on our case. Within a couple of days our problem was solved. Very reasonable price also. I will keep his info for any future needs without a doubt. Thank Mr. McCormick.
    Big Mike
