Dear, Ken,and Maria, I cannot thank you enough on behalf of myself, and my aunt and uncle’s estate. As you know, with eight recipients, in the estate, over 70, years of investments, CDs, IRAs, multiple law firms and employers, involved over the years, you really knocked it out of the park for us. I appreciate, being able to meet with Kenneth, in the beginning of the process. After that, Maria, was always available to answer, any of my email’s, and keep me from making any mistakes. I will always highly recommend Russell Law, P.C.

I would like to take this moment to thank Kenneth Russell, Maria Loecker and the rest of the team who helped guide me through a legal process during one of the roughest times of my life, with the loss of a parent. I didn’t know where to begin with this process except that I needed to find someone who knew what, where, when, why and how to settle an estate. As the administrator of the estate I knew that I was responsible for everything, but I just didn’t know how to go about it. From the moment I sat down with Kenneth, I appreciated the questions he asked to get me to understand what was going to happen and the steps throughout the process. I really enjoyed hearing him talk about his experiences and expertise with settling an estate, and I knew at that point he was the right estate attorney to help me see this through. They worked closely with me and gave me close guidance every step of the way. Thank you very much for all of your help, patience and understanding in settling my mom’s estate during this difficult time.

Russell Law did any outstanding job of handling of our Aunt's Estate. Ken Russell and Maria Loecker made the resolution of the Estate very easy for us as they took care of every detail and advised us as necessary what needed to be done. We greatly appreciate what they did for us in making our life easier. We highly recommend them. Thank you so much to Ken, John and Maria.

It’s hard for me to put into words how much this firm means to me. They worked with me through the darkest and hardest time of my life. The passing of my fiancé. the empathy that they showed proves that they will go above and beyond to not only protect you, but help you. In this 2 1/2 year process, they never stopped fighting . They always encouraged me and were truly invested in my well-being. They were my shoulder to cry on, and on the days that I couldn’t stand anymore they stood for me. They made sure that everything my fiancé wanted for me was done. And because of them, I can finally grieve and start the life My fiancé wanted me to have. I’ll never be able to thank them enough for everything they’ve done for me. If you need an attorney to stand by you in your darkest days I would highly recommend this firm. Thank you so much to Ken, John and Maria.

Ken Russell and his team (big shout-out to Maria!) were so professional and kind. They went out of their way to anticipate our legal needs in a way that provided an additional level of comfort during a trying time. My family and I are very thankful to them for their excellent legal advice and thoughtful attention. Thank you for caring about us, Russell Law!

I recently had the pleasure of having the Russell Law firm handle the Estate of my mother. They did an excellent job and provided their expertise in all matters related to the estate. I especially appreciated Maria Loecker's assistance and promptness in responding to my many questions. I would highly recommend the Russell Law team.

All at the Russell Law firm were most helpful in the matter of settling my brothers affairs after his death . He resided in the Philadelphia, PA area while I reside in Raleigh , NC . I had serious concerns about how to settle his estate , but all went very well without any glitches.The fees charged were reasonable and the work done exemplary I endorse this law firm without reservations.

Ken and Maria were absolutely great to work with. During such a difficult and emotional time in losing my father it was nice to know that my sister and I were being genuinely helped in settling his estate. Without their above and beyond help I would have never been able to settle the estate. My sister and I were able to mourn and grieve the loss of our father while Ken and Maria took care of everything else. Nothing helps more in such a time than having a dependable lawyer you can trust! And one that will do all of the leg work with your family’s best interest in mind. Losing a loved one is never easy, but deciding who to have settle your estate is - choose Russell Law! You won’t be disappointed! Thank you so much Ken and Maria.

After my father passed away I needed to probate his will. I chose Russell Law. Speaking with Ken Russell I was confident that I had made a wise choice. I dealt mainly with senior paralegal Maria Loecker. In a word, she was a gem. Whether contacting her via e-mail, text or phone, she responded within a few minutes. She was on top of everything and kept me in the loop. I was completely satisfied with the service provided by Russell Law and can recommend them with confidence.

My wife passed in Sept. 2022. I am an attorney, but I practice criminal law ; however I contacted several attorneys and Ken Russell was highly recommended. Ken had prepared my wife's will (and mine) . The will did not have to be probated as all assets passed to me as a result of joint assets or beneficiary. I was kept fully informed and all of my questions were answered with alacrity and clearly. Ken's paralegal, Maria, is a treasure. Her emails, some with attachments, were prompt, clearly written and helpful to me. Without qualification, hesitation or equivocation I strongly recommend Russell Law for Estate Planning and Administration as well as any any businesses with legal issues.
- J. Casey
Ken and Maria provided the Estate Administration for my Mother's estate. They could not have been more professional and helpful. I retained them after I was forced to terminate a relationship with the attorney who had written the original will. They stepped in and resolved issues that had been created by the former attorney and still managed to process the estate in an efficient and timely fashion. Their advice regarding a long distance real estate transaction was invaluable. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing to navigate Estate Administration.

Like many I didn't know too much about estates when a loved one passed away and to be honest it was the last thing on my mind before we choose Russell Law. This firm was recommended by a family member who used them in the past. It made the entire process much easier knowing they were working with you from the beginning to the end including the Probate of the will and many things leading up to the final closure of everything that we would have never known about, It leaves a good feeling knowing this entire team was working with our family. I worked mainly with Maria there Paralegal who was outstanding to work with, Even during the time of Covid still lingering on the majority of everything was able to be signed and emailed without going into the office. I would "highly" recommend Russell Law Firm with any of your Probate and Estate planning.

Russell Law helped me in handling an extremely difficult case involving my father’s estate. They are professional, supportive and kind and helped to make a bad situation tolerable.. I can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend them.

As Executor of my mother's estate, I asked both professionals and friends if they knew of a lawyer who specialized in Estate Settlements. They referred me to Russell Law. After meeting with two other law firms, I decided to hire Russell Law. Ken Russell and Maria Loecker finalized the details of my family's estate. They always responded quickly to my questions and offered comfort during stressful moments of the process. Ken demonstrated his experience and knowledge through his effective approach. I had many discussions with Maria Loecker, and she should be recognized for her kindness and guidance. I highly recommend Russell Law.
- Wayne D.
Over the past months it was very reassuring for me to know, Kenneth and Maria were always quickly available by e-mail or telephone to answer all my questions. They both were a great help with the guidelines and advice given to me as the Executor of my Sister's Will and Estate. Maria's e-mails were always especially courteous. I also appreciate that Maria handled the difficult paperwork and I certainly highly recommend the Russell Law Firm.

My family was referred to Ken Russell from a trusted friend who has known and worked with Ken in the past. It was the best referral I have ever had. What a team Ken Russell has built at Russell Law! My family worked closely with Ken, John Sweeney, and Maria Loecker in what has been a very emotional and challenging estate scenario from the past year. Without their expert guidance and experience, we very likely would not have had a positive resolution with my father’s estate, which thankfully has finally settled. I wholeheartedly endorse Ken Russell, John Sweeney and Maria Loecker. My family is grateful for their guidance and support. In fact, moving forward I plan on working with all three of them on my own family’s estate planning. You will be hard pressed to find a better team anywhere than Ken, John, and Maria!

The Russell law firm made my experience less stressful during the most difficult time of my brother’s passing. Ken Russell, Jack Sweeney and Maria Loecker exhibited professionalism and compassion. They had outstanding knowledge of the process from the reading of his Will, to probate, to disbursement of his assets. The team did an amazing job guiding me through each process to insure my brother’s final wishes were fulfilled. Maria has been a blessing and helped me emotionally throughout.
- Susan Davis Resari
Ken Russell and Maria Loecker are the absolute best team to work with! I did not even know where to begin after losing both parents in a matter of six weeks. They helped guide me through the estate process and I would have been lost without their help.
- Trish McCunney
Our experience with Nicole, Ken, Jack and Maria was great! They made us feel at ease with a very difficult task and it was done so professionally and thoroughly. I highly recommend this firm!
- Donna Kelly
Our family used the Russell team to handle my fathers will and as executors they did an outstanding job and made the whole process simple and easy on our family after his death. Ken answered any questions in a timely manner and let us know exactly each step of the process. We never had any issues and the estate was executed perfectly. Any time we needed information, Maria (Estate administration paralegal) was quick to find the answer and guided us with any paperwork needed and when it was due. From filing documents to taxes this incredible team was professional and prompt and we were very happy to have them during this difficult time. 5 stars out of 5 for the Best Estate Planners in the business!!!!

I had a very complicated estate matter. From the very outset Mr. Russell assured me that everything would work out. Nothing was ever insignificant or unimportant for him to respond to my questions. His paralegal, Maria Loecker, always answered all my calls and text messages promptly. I was so grateful for all their help and reassurances. I would recommend them to anyone who finds themselves in unfamiliar legal waters.

Ken Russell and Maria Loecker were such a huge blessing with my parents estate. They took care of us through the entire difficult process. I can’t thank them enough and could not have done it without them.
Trishia McCunney
Maria and Ken were amazing and very helpful to us while going through our parents' estate and all of the complications that went with it.
Olivia O’Mara
After mom passed I came across an old will she had drafted with Baratta. Unfortunately it was never signed and returned. Twenty years later I called and spoke with the attorney who had drafted it and was immediately reassured that her estate could and would be handled in a timely matter. All in all the process was smooth and without complications. Thanks to the staff and especially M. Loecker for her consistent and reassuring communication. I highly recommend this law firm.
Rob Rider
Maria Loecker is wonderful. The attorney (at another firm) who had been helping me execute this estate died unexpectedly. Afterward, Maria quickly assessed what remained to be done. She guided me in finishing the tasks, including filing the fiduciary returns. She is smart, responsive, helpful, and altogether marvelous to work with. I recommend Baratta et al highly.
Lorraine Minecci
This Law firm has met all our expectations, Baratta, Russell, & Baratta where highly professional and precise in every step of this process. Our special thanks to Maria Loecker and Ken Russell for guiding us thru this process, we felt it was going to be a bumpy road and they made it as painless and flawless as can be. We cannot thank them enough.
