• Testimonials
  

  I have known Russell Spatz for many years. I have nothing but good things to say about him and his law practice. He has helped me with everything from traffic tickets to lawsuits. His experience varies widely even to include serving under Janet Reno when she was Miami's district attorney. Russell is a good listener and if he feels somebody else would serve your needs better he will not hesitate to tell you that. He is very tenacious by Nature, like a Bulldog that will not let go of a bone. I would recommend Russell and his services to anyone needing legal advice or help.

  My experience with Mr. Spatz as my attorney is one of dealing with an empathetic person, who genuinely cares about the positive resolution of your legal difficulties, whatever they may be. I was also given great consideration for his time lost in a court scheduling mishap/miscommunication - something he did not have to do nor did I even request it. He gave freely of his time, represented me tremendously well, and resolved my case to my absolute satisfaction
