We had a complicated situation. I have never filed a bankruptcy and was considering divorce, which Robert was aware of. I could file a 7, but my husband could only file a 13 since my husband had filed a 7 six years prior. Additionally, I wasn't sure how a bankruptcy might affect my lawsuit against my prior employer and I didn't want to risk losing a large settlement by filing bankruptcy. I asked Robert if he thought I should file a 7 alone, a 13 with my husband, or wait for the lawsuit to conclude. He said he would get back to me with his answer. Meanwhile, my husband and I filled out the paperwork for a 13 and paid Robert $700. Before our next appointment, I asked Robert if he had decided whether I should file a 7 or 13 or nothing at all. His response was that he felt I was "changing my mind on filing a 13" (which I had never agreed to as I wanted to make sure I was choosing the correct option). Robert decided he would no longer represent us together or my husband alone. Robert took $350 and refunded the remainder of our money in my husband's name alone...even though I was the one who paid him and I had asked him to refund it in BOTH of our names since Robert was representing BOTH of us in this matter. I feel like Robert wanted easy money and didn't consider what was in my best interest. I waited patiently for a response, but he didn't communicate with me about my options between the first and second appointment. He kept most of my money without doing his job, and then refunded the remainder of my money to my husband instead of refunding it ethically in both of our names. It felt like it was some sort of guy-code thing between him and my husband rather than a business relationship. If I ever do decide to file bankruptcy, I won't be using Robert. read more

I did a lot of research before I hired my lawyer, and Mr. Russell and his team did not disappoint. Huge shout out to Savannah at the front desk, who really knows their stuff. Filing bankruptcy is a difficult decision, and I was so anxious... We were suffering from a garnishment which stopped when our case was filed. We had a mountain of medical bills that would have haunted us to the grave. A repossession. All kinds of stuff... Going into this office was welcoming, I was not shamed for my bad financial situation (a secret worry), and they really took the time to look over everything with a fine tooth comb so I could be confident that it was done correctly. Any questions I had were answered promptly, there was excellent communication. They helped me to stay organized with a file and went over the process in a way that I could understand. Overall they were awesome to work with. Thank you, R. Russell and team, for helping me start over. I will be grateful forever, and if I ever need help with legal issues I would hire again in a heartbeat! read more

I was very fortunate to have found Mr. Russell's office. I appreciated the knowledge of everyone at the office and the communication was always timely and professional. The staff listened and Mr. Russell made us feel at ease. I never thought my mother-in-law getting sick and put into a nursing home would have required us to take out personal loans to pay for her care and burial expenses. She thought she had coverage so we expected re-imbursement only to find out that she had no coverage at all. Suddenly we had debt that we could not pay (and it wasn't even technically our "own" debt). Mr. Russell helped me save my house that I had worked so hard to get (prior to my marriage) which was being threatened by the creditors to take. In the end, I knew I could trust his judgement and felt protected under the law. I very highly recommend this law practice for any needs you have associated with debt. He will not steer you wrong. read more

The law office of Robert Russell Law, Vancouver, Washington Bankruptcy  Attorney: I have never had to tackle with anything like this in my life. I really didn't know how or where to commence from these issues. Despite, my estrange wife antagonistically showing up in my bankruptcy court, verbally attacking me in the presence of the judge and later wrote a letter argued that my case should be instantaneously denied, was an eyesore. However, attorney Russell and his staff were persistent and unrelenting in my case. I really appreciate the level of professionalism, courteous, prompt response to my questions, and outstanding performance to see my case through; would never be forgettable. Lastly, i will highly recommend your office at any point in time. Thank you. read more

I first contacted Robert Russell a year ago. I have been having a lot of financial difficulties with complex situations attached. Mr. Russell not only has helped me but only has his client's best interest in mind. I will be meeting with him again next month to continue with my bankruptcy. I had consulted with another lawyer and left that office feeling horrified and in tears, he only cared about getting his money and provided me with no advice concerning my situation. Mr. Russell gave me peace of mind and I would recommend him to anyone needing help, he truly cares which makes all the difference!! read more

It was such a relief to put my financial troubles into someone else's very competent hands! Mr. Russell and his staff are caring and knowledgeable, and really helped me through a very difficult situation. I would highly recommend their services. read more

Rob was the best attorney I've ever worked with. He brings a ton of experience, a cool, calm demeanor, and some serious negotiating skills to the table. His fees were extremely reasonable, he was always on top of things and he made the bankruptcy process so much easier for us. We actually had another attorney at the start of the bankruptcy but things went sideways and then we found Rob (thank God!) and he turned things around for us. This is the guy you want on your side. I give him my highest recommendation. read more
