Craft Testimonials
“Russ has been an invaluable legal counsel to us since the formation of FloraWorks. His expertise and guidance were instrumental in navigating a complicated redomicile from Canada to the US and executing a successful Series A fundraise.
Having worked with Russ for years before FloraWorks, I can confidently attest to his exceptional legal skills and unwavering dedication to his clients. His professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to handle complex legal issues make him an asset to any organization in need of a skilled and experienced attorney.
Overall, Russ has been an integral part of our success, and we are grateful for his unwavering support and counsel. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch legal representation.”
“There are so many reasons that we are thrilled to have Russ representing us. He’s not just an excellent business attorney, he’s a strategic thinker and extremely collaborative in his approach. Beyond his role as legal counsel, he is a key resource for developing our business strategy.
Russ thinks like an entrepreneur, and that is hugely valuable to us. As an ambitious start-up, we needed a future-proofed model for the business. Russ listened, understood our needs, and recommended a plan that set us on a path for success.
I don’t know if Russ is one-of-a-kind, but it sure seems like it. He has represented two of my companies in very different and dynamic industries, yet there was no difference in his commitment to dive deep and provide us with excellent counsel.”
