Russell Alexander Founder & Senior Partner

I am the founder of Russell Alexander Family Lawyers and the firm’s senior partner. In addition to helping clients with separation, divorce, custody and support issues, I oversee the operations of all seven of the firm’s offices, supervise the firm’s clerks, and collaborate frequently with the firm’s associate lawyers and their own clients. With nearly twenty-five years of experience, I am able to draw upon a wealth of knowledge and expertise when serving my clients in all aspects of family law. I work with clients to cope with the difficulties of separation and divorce, the division of assets such as homes and pensions, and the calculation and enforcement of child and spousal support. I use my experience to create unique solutions for each client to enable them and their families to move forward with their lives. I am an experienced litigator and have used my advocacy skills to win family law trials for my clients. But, I understand that litigation has both an emotional and financial toll, so I do my best to resolve as many cases as possible outside of court. I am a fully trained Collaborative Practice lawyer and a member of the Durham and York Region Collaborative Practice Groups.
