About:
Attorney Katharine Phinney is an experienced litigation attorney, focusing primarily on family law. After years of working for the people of Rockingham and Strafford counties prosecuting felony level crimes, she transitioned back to the private sector to work with families and help individuals with their own legal matters. Attorney Phinney has a track record of success. She graduated summa cum laude, attaining the rank of 2nd in her law school class, and then began her career on the Seacoast at a family law firm. During her first several years of practice, she enjoyed working on complex divorce cases, including arguing a case before the New Hampshire Supreme Court on behalf of her client. Enticed by this litigation experience, Attorney Phinney became a felony level prosecutor where she handled hundreds of felony crimes and spent years in the courtroom. After winning numerous jury trials for the State of New Hampshire, Attorney Phinney chose to work on a more personal level with individuals and families, and joined the team at Russman Law. In addition to working hard for her clients, Attorney Phinney enjoys serving the citizens of New Hampshire in various capacities as a past member on the New Hampshire Adult Parole Board, past President of the Rockingham Bar Association after serving years as a Board Member and has enjoyed teaching a law course at the Granite State College. Attorney Phinney resides in the Seacoast area, with her husband and children where she is testing her green thumb in gardening and attempting to hike all of the 48 4,000 foot summits in the Granite State.

"Attorney Russman was exceptionally helpful during a recent legal issue that arose in my family. He was exceptionally organized, truly personable, and pleasantly attentive. He is smart and knows how to use your time efficiently, to get you the best outcome for your situation. His lovely office staff was kind and caring. The issue was resolved in a professional manner and follow through at a later date is also included. Money and time very well spent. I HIGHLY recommend Russman Law if you are in need of legal services. We would definitely use him and/or his office again if an issue arose. Thank you very much for all of your assistance with our legal matter!"

"Anthony Muir has helped me twice. He's an incredible attorney with strong morals and work ethic. The two times he's helped me were for different things and both times he was a Godsend. I would recommend this attorney to any person looking for help with the types of cases Anthony fields. He's a good man and a wonderful attorney."

"A divorce is a painful and stressful experience. I contracted Anthony Muir to help me with mine...... Long story short; Anthony Muir made it easy for me; he is methodical, calm, professional and knowledgeable of the law. He guided, wisely advised and supported me. Most important, got the results I wanted. Furthermore, even after the divorce, anytime I had "residual issues" (ex-wife noncomplying, etc.), Anthony was always willing to help effectively..... In plain English, you are in good hands with Anthony L. Montero"

"I cannot promote Anthony Muir more! From my first call with Anthony, I knew he was exactly who I wanted to represent me. Anthony has this calming demeanor that helped me keep it together in the most stressful of times. I can not say enough wonderful things about him. He was punctual, reliable, thorough, his attention to detail is unmatched, he was always very prepared and he made me feel heard. As each hearing approached, I knew I had the right person in my corner. I would recommend Anthony over and over again."
