Hired Attorney Russell J. Swartz

Russell Swartz is by far the worst attorney. 6 months to 1 year divorce that I was told it would take ended up taking 4 years. It finally was over once my ex husbands attorney went to the judge to move the divorce forward because Swartz was refusing to leasing to my pleas. Beside his $14,000 + thousand dollars he changed me for a uncontested divorce he cost me 1 year of my half of my benefits because he was refusing to withdraw from my case. I had to file in court to have Swartz removed

Hired Law Firm

I embarrassingly hired Brandy Jones in 2013 to help me with custody of my children. I wanted to do what was best for each child, my son enjoyed being with his father more and my daughter was best with me... she fired (me) and made me feel like a poor mother because I was doing what was best for the children. She didn’t help with anything in court for me, the only thing she did well was take my money. I won my case finally thanks to Rupert Corkill! He was worth every dime.

Hired Attorney Russell J. Swartz

I have to hire another attorney to clean up the legal mess Swartz left me in. Once I gave over my deposit, it became very clear Swartz was incapable of helping me with my Divorce. My Ex used Rupert Corkill who is less than half the cost of Swartz, and was 110% more effective in court. Swartz refused to finish the tasks he was hired to do. Do yourself a favor and find anyone else!!!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
