About
After years of working for well-respected national and regional firms, I established my own firm focusing exclusively on labor and employment law. My areas of concentration include, for example:(a) wrongful termination / employment discrimination (including sexual harassment and retaliation claims); (b) wage claims (e.g., unpaid wages, overtime, exempt vs. non-exempt status, independent contractor issues, etc.);(c) non-competition and non-solicitation agreements; (d) executive departures and severance agreements; (e) whistleblower laws; and (f) providing advice and counsel with regard to a diverse array of employment issues such as workplace policies and procedures, general labor law compliance, leaves of absence and discipline and termination issues.

After consulting with multiple lawyers regarding a very tricky employment contract, I decided to use Russell Adler and it was the best decision I made in a long time. Not only was Russell fully committed to my case, but he always found the time for me to discuss the process. He was extremely positive, attentive and thorough, all the things you'd want from your lawyer. His knowledge and breadth of the law was critical in this case, and he was able to make quick, strong decisions with successful results. I would highly recommend Russell.
Russ is easily the most reliable, competent and trustworthy attorney I have ever come across. Combine that with the fact he achieves results and it's no wonder why his other reviews are so great. He is an absolute beast during negotiations and he successfully got me out of a deeply disturbing situation with a bully former employer. When I felt like there was no hope with my situation, Russ was the man to save the day. He is sharp, reliable, 100% communicative and results-driven. He cares about each person's unique situation and treats you as if you're his only client. Russ knows everything inside and out pertaining to employment law and I can't recommend him highly enough! He has the perfect temperament to deal with his clients and the the right amount of assertiveness and persistence as an advocate when dealing with the opposition's lawyers. If you want results, hire Russ!
He was very professional. Every question I asked Mr.Adler was answered quickly. I enjoyed working out the details of my situation with him because of his honesty. He was very clear on what my options were and what would be the best outcome for me as his client. I would highly recommend him to anyone with legal matter in his area of expertise.
Coming out of a bad situation from a former job I was left with no recourse other than to leave. I would have been left destitute and unable to take care of my family. Fortunately Russell was able to help come to a feasible solution. I would honestly say if you are in a bind and you need someone to think out of the box, I highly recommend him. Cannot sing accolades enough. Thank you again
Russ Adler is the lawyer you want in your corner! What I appreciate the most is that he took the time to explain the legal process step by step as we moved forward with my case. In the end, I am extremely happy Mr. Adler was successful in settling my case.
Russ Adler represented me in a sexual harassment lawsuit against my former boss.

I cannot say enough about Russ and I am so grateful for his strong leadership and consistency. In the end, I am absolutely delighted with how my matter was resolved and highly recommend Russ without reservation. He is the best!
Russ helped me to navigate my exit from a tricky situation involving sexual assault in the workplace. From day one, he really listened, gave me great advice, respected my time, and didn't just tell me what to do but always explained why a certain course of action would be best. I cannot imagine going through the experience without Russ at my side.
Mr. Adler explained in advance the difficulty in trying to get a large corporation to acknowledge a possible EEOC violation when a termination occurs based on false statements. He explained in advance what his fees would be, and he ccd me in all of his correspondence with my employer's attorney. He also answered all of my questions and made it clear that he would follow my directions even if he disagreed with the efficacy of my requests. Most importantly he successfully resolved the matter to my satisfaction.
It was very difficult to find a labor lawyer who was able to understand my industry and was able to quickly get to the nature of my issues. We agreed on an approach and he was very helpful in execution. We resolved my problem without "burning any bridges" for me.
I found Russell Adler to always be well prepared, focused and very knowledgeable in the law. He is an exceptional attorney. His professionalism and supportive nature to his clients is unparalleled. I highly recommend Russel Adler without any reservations.
