He is certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy as a Board Certified Civil Trial Advocate.

I was involved in a life-threatening accident that left me disabled for the rest of my life. Instantly, my livelihood, health, and independence was taken from me. When I hired Mr. Reiner, I had a gut feeling he would be fight for my best interests - and he did not disappoint. Russ aggressively defended me against the entities involved to hold them responsible. My case took years to settle out of court, and Mr. Reiner was sympathetic and understood that every day during that time was traumatic and painful. Though we never had the opportunity to meet in person, Russ timely communicated changes to my case and my family’s questions. He’s a no nonsense professional, where he called with noteworthy updates and set realistic expectations.

I feel like Russ genuinely cares for his clients because he went beyond his responsibilities. He connected me with sensitive medical experts and credible financial planners, all vested to handle my case and substantial settlement.

With Russ’ expertise, I can humbly say I am retired and can comfortably attend to my lifelong medical needs.

My advice to Russ Reiner’s future clients are to simply let him do his job. Cases take time and a settlement doesn’t happen overnight. My family and I would hire Russ again in heartbeat.

I was in a terrible auto accident, but the attorneys at Reiner & Frankel were very caring and listened to what I had to say. They kept me updated on what I needed to do and what was happening. I always felt they were working their very best for me. They were very successful in my case.
