I found Beth when I was desperately needing a trademark attorney. She literally saved our business with her handling of some sensitive trademark issues. Since that time, I have used her for all of our legal needs...website contracts, leases, hosting agreements, and other trademark applications. She also was able to assess our needs and make some recommendations that, upon implementation, were much needed. She is always available to assist us and works in a timely and educated manner. And her fees are very reasonable. Small businesses need legal advice, but only on as as-needed basis. It's great to have a trustworthy lawyer that we can call when the need arises. I would recommend Beth Russell to anyone...we are fortunate to have her on our side. -P.L.
Beth has been our corporate counsel for the past two years. I find her creative, collaborative and personable approach refreshing. Her diverse experience and interest in a variety of areas brings valuable depth to her legal practice capabilities. Beth has a manner of relaying complicated information that makes sense so we can best make critical business decisions under tight timelines. -L.D.
Elizabeth Russell guided us through the overwhelming legal matters of a second class commercial theater production like a pro. New York lawyers were swallowing up our money fast and furious and Elizabeth seemed to take care of things much faster for half the cost. We learned: "Just because they are New York entertainment lawyers, doesn't make them better." I'd recommend Elizabeth Russell to handle any project big or small. - J.P.
Elizabeth Russell specializes in representing people in the creative arts, and I can recommend her work with the highest confidence. As president of a 33-member Wisconsin freelancer's network, I'm frequently asked for the name of a lawyer to look over a publishing contract or to help a writer collect money owed. There are many intellectual property attorneys in the area, but most focus on patents. I was delighted to learn of Elizabeth Russell from a client of mine in Madison, WI. Within the past year alone, Beth has saved one of my clients from potentially serious legal problems with his self-published book (which had previously been cleared by his personal attorney!) and helped a colleague in public relations craft a highly specialized contract to represent her client's product on the QVC cable TV network. In addition, Beth spoke to our writer network in September and it turned out to be one of the most informative and best attended meetings in years. Her explanations are clear and to the point. Everyone I know who has either used her services or heard her speak would say the same thing: if you are a writer, a visual artist, or someone otherwise involved in the arts world, Elizabeth Russell is someone you want on your business team. - A.B.
