I literally could not be happier with my experience. Communication is on point, documentation is professional, timely and I feel extremely pleased with everything! Thank you MRD!

Matthew Russell is the most amazing person and lawyer I have come to meet. Went in there terrified and walked out with no weight on my shoulders. He is here to make light and take care of any situation you might have.

Russell P. Dempsey, I'm well pleased with him,he helped me with my traffic ticket.

I honestly cannot recommend MRD Lawyers highly enough. Matthew Russell is an amazing lawyer. Hiring him was by far the best choice I have ever made.

Exceptional service and very personable! Such a good feeling to have such professionalism echoed by a caring personal touch!

Mr. Russell is probably the best lawyer is the area hands down!!! He focuses on each case he has with the same intensity the same weather it be a murder charge or a forgery. He has amazing communication skills and works his butt off for you. I highly recommend Matt Russell!!

Quick action taken and kept my driving record clean.

Thank you

10/10 Would definitely recommend! My attorney was Mr. Dempsey. He did a wonderful job with my case, I received the best possible outcome! Thank You MRD LAWYERS!

They helped me with a ticket, very grateful.

Hiring Matthew Russell was the best legal experience we have ever had.
We were from another state and did research based on reviews and conversation with him. He is very sharp and knows the law beyond!
I liked that he communicated quickly and kept you informed as to his
plans and action. He is honest and we respected that he would tell you what he thought. We also had quick resolve in what we thought would be a total nightmare. He will always be considered OUR lawyer.

From the first day I walked in the door at MRD Lawyers, until my positive outcome at the end of my case, my family and I were treated with dignity and kindness.
The professionalism and dedication that attorney Russel Dempsey provided during the entire process made us feel
at ease and we never worried. I was always able to reach Mr. Dempsey and he took time to address all of my concerns.
I highly recommend Russell Dempsey and all of the team at MRD Lawyers.

Matt is a phenomenal Attorney! I couldn’t be happier with the excellent results he delivered on my traffic ticket issue. Thank you again, Matt!

The firm is timely to its clients needs. Expect nothing less then the best representation

Matt and rest of his staff were very professional, compassionate, and responsive. Highly recommend this firm.

Matt was very helpful and informative! I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Matt has helped me through my struggles. If you ever are looking for a attorney I highly recommend to hire him. He is the man! He has changed my life around. I want to give a big thanks to him.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matthew Russell, if you’re looking for someone who works for you non stop to make sure you get the best possible outcome, you shouldn’t go anywhere else. Offers an easy payment plan, is friendly and makes you feel like a friend. Best of the best.

I could not have been more pleased to have Matt as my attorney! Not only was he there for my legal needs- but truly as a friend. He always checked on me biweekly, and always made sure I fully understood every fine detail. Never once did he make me feel stupid, terrible, or helpless- but truly helped me find growth and perceptive in the bad chapter I was facing. If you ever need an attorney- Call Matt, make him your first and only call.

Matt Russell is a very impressive attorney and person.

A++++ . Best attorney out there by far !!! 110% recommend.

Matthew Russell definitely exceeded my expectations with my case. He made everything very simply and made sure I knew what was going on. He made me feel so much better about the situation and I am very confident that if I every need any legal help again I will contact him first as well as recommend him to any and everyone.

Matt Russell is the best. I live out of town (about three hours away) and got into some trouble while I was visiting Springfield. I know nothing about Springfield and had no idea what to expect as this was my first time in any trouble. I had never had an attorney before and knew nothing about the process or the legal system. I knew I needed to find the right one considering we would be speaking explicitly over phone and e-mail. After speaking with a few attorneys in town, I chose MRD Lawyers and I have no doubt in my mind that I made the right choice. He versed me on all possible outcomes of my case, and helped me make the right decision in the end to eliminate any more trouble.
They have a flat fee for the type of case I had and since the case went faster than planned, Matt only ended up charging me a portion of the flat fee. I got to meet him in person at the end of my case and he was awesome.
One thing that put me at ease was how quick he was to respond by e-mail, no waiting on the phone or being worried sick anticipating a phone call. I'm sure anyone who has hired him can attest to this as well, plus I'm sure his quick response is relieving for people with much more serious life-changing cases.
He is the best and made this process so much easier for me with my living out of town. My experience with Matt assured me that there really are good lawyers out there that have YOUR best interest in mind, not their bank accounts. You will definitely make the right choice in hiring MRD Lawyers.
Thanks Matt!

Matt Russell provides excellent legal help. He is personable and truly cares about his clients. I’ve used Matt’s services on multiple occasions and he never fails to impress. Matt makes the legal process easy to understand and is extremely thorough in his work. I would recommend Matt and MRD Lawyers to anyone looking for wonderful legal counsel.

Matt Russell is the best. It doesnt get better than him.

I am so glad I hired Matt Russell! After having a bad experience with the first lawyer I hired for my case, Matt was a breath of fresh air. He answered all of the questions I had, was easy to contact with any additional questions, was very personable, listened to me and how I felt, and I could tell he wanted the best for me and my case. I could not be happier, and I would recommend Matt to anyone!

I had an unfortunate incident arise in which I needed legal help. I brought my problem to Matt Russel at MRD lawyers and the first thing he told me was “I don’t want you to worry or stress about this anymore, because that’s my job now”. Matt was honest and upfront with me from the get go. He did everything for me he said he was going to and got me exactly what we both wanted.. my unfortunate new problem gone! I highly recommend Matt at MRD lawyers if you ever have a bad circumstance that needs taken care of. Thanks Matt!

I recommend Matt, 100% hands down the best attorney in the business. He did exactly what he said he would do. He was attentive to the needs of my case. I have no doubt he does the same for every one he represents. He made the process super easy and relaxed. Thank you so much I appreciate it at ton!!!

Matthew Russel is one of the best attorneys in Springfield Missouri. I had a goal in mind with my case and he was able to deliver the exact result I wanted and for a reasonable price! He kept me updated throughout the process without me having to go to court in person or really do anything! I am very satisfied with him and his team and I cannot thank him enough for his help!! I seriously recommend this firm to anyone who’s in need of legal assistance.

I hired MRD after firing another attorney and they were very honest and to the point, well educated and they gave me confidence and trust which are all very important things when your life is on the line. I will stick with if I ever need a attorney. A+++

5 STARS ARE SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH FOR MATT RUSSELL. HE IS BEYOND WONDERFUL AND CARING. ETHICS AND MORALS BEFORE THE $$! OTHER LAWYERS NEED TO TAKE A COURSE ON HOW TO ACT AND CARE FROM MATT. HE HAS ANSWERED MY QUESTIONS AND POINTED ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THESE QUALITIES ARE HARD TO FIND IN HUMAN BEINGS AND I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL! THANK YOU MATT!

My attorney Matthew Russell was absolutely incredible. He helped me with a case from several years ago that was still causing problems for me. He was very sympathetic and was completely honest with me about the steps I needed to take and how we were going to handle it. He returned phone calls and emails very quickly to put my mind at ease that he had everything under control. I wish I would have known about him years ago when I first needed a lawyer. Best decision you'll make! Thank you so much Matt!!

My attorney Matthew Russel did an amazing job in my case. He was very professional and did an amazing job representing me in my case. He was easy to talk to and made it easy to understand the charges and potential consequences in the judicial system. My needs were exceptionally well met. He is affordable and knows the law. I would recommend him to anyone needing legal representation.

If I could give a rating of 10 out of 5 I would. These guys are true professionals and exceptional at what they do. They will go above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable throughout the entire case. Never were there any questions left unanswered and I felt confident with them at my side throughout the entire process. It was my pleasure to work with Matt he made feel as if I were his only client. As I had his divided attention. He was always straight foward with me and never lead me in the wrong direction. If you are seeking legal representation, look no further. It doesn't get any better then MRD lawyers. Thank you Matt! You have truly blessed my family and I!

Best in all of southern Mo. Highly recommend if needing a excellent lawyer! Mr.Russ Dimpsy is worth every bit of his attorney fees then some! :)

Russell works hard to keep you safe and feeling like you're a priority. Very knowledgeable and caring. Highly recommend to anyone in need.

Very knowledgeable

I've worked with Matt for a couple of years, great communication, great results, I recommend him highly.

I had the pleasure of meeting Matt Russell 14 years ago when he worked at the Greene County Prosecuting Attorney’s office. Not only was he an excellent prosecutor who went out of his way to protect my family, he was also much kinder and more attentive than I expected. Today, with his own practice, he is exactly the same. Not only is he a top notch lawyer, but he communicates with you about your case in a timely manner. He’s the only one that I trust with my family’s future.

MRD Lawyers are incredible. A family member was facing some very serious charges and Mr. Russell and his firm successfully defended them. From the first initial call to their office, the initial meeting with Mr. Russell who walked us through all that we faced and every possible outcome, though constant online updates including reminders of appointments, communication was everything to us. Our family had never had to face something like this and we could not, and now would never go through this again without MRD Lawyers and especially Mr. Russell. Thank you Sir, we are deeply grateful to you for your professional handling of our issue. I completely and only recommend this firm to others facing serious criminal charges. 10 stars in my book!

MRD Lawyers are so easy, professional and awesome to work with! Anytime I had questions I’d call and they were always answered. Highly recommended if you’re considering them or looking for somebody to help you.

Matt is incredibly knowledgeable. He will shoot you straight on everything regarding your case, what it will take to get the best outcome when provided with all the facts, and keep the fees to a reasonable price. This firm is the firm to work with.

I will recommend to everyone! I’ve never had to have a lawyer so I did have a lot of questions anytime I would call they answered all of my concerns. Went above and beyond to solve my case and I will be forever grateful!

Very professional and was able to get exactly what we needed in our case. Highly recommended!

I went to Matt after receiving a second DWI. I was extremely nervous and not very hopeful about the outcome of my situation before meeting him. At our initial consultation, Matt was very reassuring and made me feel like things would not be as bad as they seem. After everything, Matt got me an amazing deal and I will have a completely clean record after 2 years. I would recommend him to anyone going through a similar legal situation. He will do everything he can to get you the best deal possible without draining your pockets. I cannot thank him enough for all he has done for me!

I hired Matthew Russell in January I was currently detained facing a class A felony. He got me out and started working on my case, threw the whole time Matthew was completely motivated to get the best outcome and he did. He got me the minimum legal plea. He also told me what my expectations were every appearance. He is extremely skilled. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Very impressed from start to finish!

Mr. Russell is an amazing attorney! He did a great job with my case and I would recommend him 100%!

It couldn’t be any easier! Give them a call and they’ll take of legal matters and send a summary and receipt when it is complete. Efficient and reasonable.

Matt did an outstanding job, every step of the way. Great communication skills, respectful and confident. I highly recommend him for any legal needs you may have to face.

Matthew Russell was my attorney recently in 2019 and I can't be more happy that I chose him & his law firm to represent me. Matt is bar none the most polite, honest & hard working attorney I've come into contact with in my life. I highly recommend Matt Russell & MRD Law firm. Matt is very personal, treated me kindly & explained every detail & step very clearly. I appreciate Matthew Russell very much and I am greatful that he finalized my case without a trail & the original charge was dropped. I only wish Matt practiced all areas of law because I'd use him for everything. He's an efficient & well prepared attorney. I was very blessed to have him on my side working diligently for me. Thank Matthew Russell & MRD Law for your professionalism & friendship.
sincerely,
Deborah Rude

Attorney Matthew Russell is very professional and persistent. He is an awesome attorney and makes very good arguments.

Matthew Russell is an expert at what he does and does it with perfection he handled my case greatly and kept me At ease going through the court proceedings. I could not of asked for a more understanding and respectful person to trust my life with Matthew Russell is an exceptional lawyer.

Although the courts did not uphold their end, if you hire a different lawyer, frankly that's a bad move. Never experienced or heard of a lawyer that goes above and beyond for their clients like Matt does

I am beyond impressed with Matthew Russell at MRD Lawyers! This was my first experience needing a lawyer, and I wasn't sure what to expect. I was seeking representation for a speeding ticket, and Matt was recommended to me by another firm. From day 1, the office was professional, appointments were on time and they always communicated clearly. I am more than satisfied with how my case turned out, but above all my recommendation is based primarily on his compassion and understanding. He listened to me, and fought for me as a friend. Thank you Matt! I 100% recommend him if you unexpectedly find yourself needing a lawyer, like I did!

Mr Russell was extremely professional, knowlegable and caring of my circumstances. He outperformed previous attorneys by tenfold. I hope to never need an attorney again but if I do it will defenatley be Matt Russell. Thank good sir for all you do.

Can't speak highly enough about Matt and MRD! But here goes..
1. He came already highly recommended. He is as personable and approachable as they come!
2. Initial meeting was concise and he "listened" to me.
3. He did not speak over my head, but to me and my concerns.
4. He pursued my case with intent, and he carefully considered all my options.
5. He made me feel (and he does!) that he would work hard for the best possible outcome.
6. I think follow up and timely communication is everything in life period.
He executes this at a very high level, and not once did I wonder where I was at in the process. He is proactive not reactive. I can't overstate that.
7. I quickly got the feeling that Matt takes his job seriously and personally. You blend that with talent and knowledge you have a winner!
8. MRD's office system is fantastic and allowed me to go online with reports of what has already happened with detailed records and what's next. If you are not an on-line person...no worries you get mail also.
9. Very important-Anything involving legal matters is stressful. I can't think of one thing Matt could have done better to lessen or alleviate the stress.
10. Expectations exceeded!
11. If you need help call him today!

Thanks Matt, and thank you for you wonderful staff! They are a wonderful reflection of your practice!

I take comfort if I ever need your help again I know who I can count on!

I hired MRD to handle a speeding ticket. Communication was fantastic via their on line portal and the whole process was smooth, understanding and reasonable as far as cost for lawyer fees and court fees.
Thank you for your help!!

I was very happy with how cleanly he resolved my case. He was very forthcoming with any information I needed, and I'd be glad to hire him again

Has to be the best attorney in town! I refer anyone in need. Matt has always been very active in our community, helping to make Springfield and the surrounding area a better place to live. With his knowledge of both sides of the law having been a former Greene county prosecutor for years, he understands exactly what you are facing and how to best tackle your situation. I have referred several friends to his law firm. Everyone has been thrilled with his results! And if it’s traffic tickets, in my situation.... what traffic ticket! Keep up the great work Matt Russel. Your law firm is a great asset to our community!

I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to work on my case than Matthew. He went above and beyond every time we talked. Showed up for every single court date on time. Exceeded every expectation! Best lawyer ever.

Matt and Russell are undoubtedly the best attorneys in Southwest Missouri. I was in a bad place in my life.
My family retained Matt while I was incarcerated. I met with him the day I made bail. Words can not do justice to his professionalism and knowledge of the justice system. Matt asked me what I wanted and he came thru true to his word. To quote Matt "Bad things happen to good people. Im in a great place in my life due to Matt and Russell.

Thank you Matt and Russell for representing me and helping me get back on the path to recovery.

I’m highly satisfied with my experience. Matthew was a thorough professional. He educated me on what to expect, what the likely outcome would be and then achieve it. Matthew is definitely a wonderful caring and awesome attorney. All his staff was very well polite kyleigh was also a very sweet girl. I never had any problems, everything went great and I would recommend Matthew Russell to anyone needing a lawyer. I will always Continue to have him as attorney. I appreciate all you guys have done for me.

Matt is one of the best attorneys in the Springfield area. I would trust his knowledge and experience in any situation. Highly recommend him!

Attorney Russell prepared for my free consultation by reading several documents I had forwarded to the very nice administrative assistant. His legal advice was invaluable. He is very nice.

My experience was great with this company. I met with Mathew Russell and he was very easy to get along with. We had a hard case, but he pulled it off with no problems. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney to represent me in this matter. Thank you Matthew.

I really appreciated how they took my ticket and handled everything without any interruptions for me!! It made my first ticket in years a little less painful than I was expecting. Plus the outcome was great! Thanks Matt!!

Matt Russell exceeded all my expectations. The professionalism is outstanding, and they kept me fully informed with each stage of the process fully explained. Thank you for everything!

Matt Russell did an excellent job managing a friend's bogus assault case several years ago. I found myself on the receiving end of one recently, I hired him, and he did me right as I expected he would. Matt's personal communication is very thorough, empathetic and receptive; and his delivery of legal and informative documents are timely and well-explained. His professionalism and credentials are highly assuring. I knew I was in good hands during the entire length of a very stressful situation. Matt got my case dismissed sooner than expected, and my record is still clean thanks to him.

Attorney Matt Russell managed a DUI/ Illegal arrest case for my husband, and must say, he is an AMAZING lawyer. First, I must note, we are located out of state, and he made sure to reassure us and communicate to us frequently throughout the process. The overall case took 15 months to close out, however that was by choice as he was adamant that “good things come to those who wait.” Good things did in fact actually happen… he got all charges completely dropped and nothing on my husband’s record. We also really liked that he had a set price for DUI cases- regardless if it went to trial or not. It allows the client to make a decision based on what is best for them, versus making it a money decision. Matt Russell is a rock star attorney, and we can’t thank him enough!!!

I highly recommend Matthew Russell and his associates at MRD lawyers. He handled my case respectfully and professionally. He worked tirelessly and in my opinion, went above and beyond, to settle my case with my best interests in mind.

Very personable and professional firm.
Responsive, reasonable, and thorough.
I would recommend these guys to my mother.

If you're in a pinch, look no further than MRD

They are friendly and experienced, offer great services and are very helpful! Expect results!

Matt Russell went above and beyond for me. He was straight to the point, very informative, and talked like a normal human being. I would 100% recommend him.

If you are looking for representation from the best lawyer in the Springfield area, do not hesitate to contact Matt Russell. Before meeting him, I had a few notions in my mind as to what I should expect from a lawyer, especially one with the vast experience and lengthy background that Matt has, but he managed to break every mold I thought he would fit into. From my first meeting with him, it was easy to see that Matt cared very much about not just my case, but about me as a person. He was extremely easy to get in touch with and was prompt in responding to any of my inquiries. He worked hard to make sure I was always aware of what was happening, even going so far as to set up meetings with me during his off hours to help work around my schedule.

I also could not have been happier with how my case turned out: thanks to Matt and his team, what was expected to be a year long endeavor turned into a few month long slam dunk! Do yourself a favor and let Matt's knowledge of the law, familiarity with the local courts, and empathetic personality work for you.

Matthew Russel represented me recently. He was fantastic and his services were very competent. There was an issue that developed and prolonged the process and I could not have been more pleased with the way that he rose to the occasion. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of council.

Couldn't be happier or any more satisfied with Attorney Matthew Russell. I have never been in any kind of legal trouble before, but I knew who to ask for help. Professional, knowledgeable, courteous and caring, that defines Mr. Russell. Seriously, this guy is Superman! If you need some legal help, do yourself a favor and call Matthew Russell.

Matt is one of the most personable lawyers I've had the pleasure of working with. He was open and honest about my case from the start. His communication is spot on and set my mind at ease through the process. Best part is the case ended up with the result we were looking for. Highly recommended!

Got the best possible outcome I could imagine getting from my case. Matt did a great job decoding the legal language so I could understand it. Will hire him again should I need him.

Matt was very professional and did an outstanding job at making me feel a lot better about an unfortunate situation. He also delivered an amazing outcome of exactly what I requested in regards to my case. My family/friends were shocked with how well my case went and the outcome. I was a very hard person to get in contact with, but Matt went above and beyond to accommodate me. He was by my side the entire time and I was amazed at how genuinely concerned he was with my well being. I would recommend MRD Lawyers to all of my friends and family and they also went above and beyond to accommodate my payments (even if they were late!). I am beyond thankful to have found help from such wonderful professionals who truly care about their clients. Thank You again!!!

Matt is my hero. Seriously wouldn't trust anyone else to help me on the future! He got me a very favorable outcome in my case. Also, he is amazing at keeping in contact and you up to date on what is happening.

Matthew Russell is Great to work with. Honest and up front while getting the job done right. Would recommend to friends and family every time.

Matt represented me in a very difficult case and was able to negotiate a positive outcome. The communication was excellent, one of the most important aspects of having counsel. Follow up and genuine concern, Matt was outstanding.

Matt was everything but what you would expect from the "typical lawyer". He was attentive and eager from the start to help me along my way. If I had a question, it never took more than a few hours before I received a response. Matt was very flexible with me financially and genuinely took time to get to know my character as a client and to know the genuine nature of my case.

His staff, Tammy and Kylie, were always very helpful at squeezing me in, if last minute things arose. And they were also excellent at keeping me informed about any upcoming bills and court dates that came up during my process.

This firm made me feel welcome from the start. I appreciated their rock-solid legal help and their hospitality immensely.

I had a great, and given the circumstances, stress-free experience. Matt Russell took care of everything, and i would definitely recommend them to anyone who is needing help.

I never thought someone would be so genuine, kind, and understanding of my situation, until I met and started working with Matt.
From the first moment I met with him, all the stress I had for the situation went away, and I was very confident in his ability to help.
After all was said and done, I couldn't be happier with the results and outcome he had worked out for me.
I will 100% gladly, and without hesitation, recommend MRD's services to any and all of my family and friends who may need it.
Thank you again, Matt!

Matt Russell goes above and beyond to help his clients. Most personable lawyer I've ever spoken to. Highly recommended!

I cannot say enough good about my time working with Matt. He was clear, concise, comforting, and genuine. Any questions I had were answered quickly and thoroughly. I never felt as if I didn't understand his plan for my situation. I would highly recommend Matt to any of my friends or family without hesitation.

I highly recommend Matt Russell and his firm MRD Lawyers. Not only is Matt great at what he does, he takes a personal interest in your life. He has helped me and my family with numerous issues and is always ready to help. When I say help, I mean he takes control and you are able to relax and know that everything will be handled.

I cannot explain enough how much comfort Matt brought us in a very difficult time! Having had a daughter on drugs for a few years, left a bit of a mess to clean up! He totally took care of us and told us to not worry, but go on with life and he would do his job! I trusted him completely and he did exactly what he said he would do. We were very pleased with the outcome and my daughter is able to move on with life as she is going to school and working. His price was very reasonable and he is trustworthy! Thanking God for him!

Matthew Russell is the most caring attorney I have encountered! He fought for me at times that most lawyers would have given up in the courtroom. I was very satisfied with the outcome. Matt has a very kind professional attitude, that's full of compassion, he was always prompt with answering all my questions and concerns. MRD lawyers receive an A+ in my book.

Great lawfirm, I would highly recommend this lawfirm for any traffic or criminal cases in Greene County.
