Working with Toni Ann made this process as smooth as it could possibly be. She is professional, knowledgeable, understanding and kind. She was always available when I needed her and always willing to explain anything that I did not understand. I would recommend her to anyone that is going through family difficulties. She made a trying time easier and I will always be grateful to her.

Quick to judgement, unorganized, her partner does a better job defending the other party rather than you because of the quick assumptions as to your character. Takes every penny she can dig up without regard for the client and then dumps the client when the well runs dry without offering a payment plan or any other way to get you out of harms way. Don't do this unless you plan on spending a new cars worth of money before getting dumped.

Hired Attorney Ms. Toni Ann Russo, Esq.

The worst experience, I spent lot of money for my case and I paid over bills. She manipulates with her clients. Now, I'm meeting lot of lowers and when I explain my case they are very surprise how is impossible that this lower took lot of money and I didn't take nothing back.
