About Russell H.
Russell H. Hippe earned his law degree from The University of Georgia School of Law after completing undergraduate studies at the University of Georgia, where he received an A.B.J. The early choice of two Georgia institutions set the stage for a career practiced entirely within the state. He stayed close to the institutions where he trained, and those ties show in his steady presence in Georgia courts.
He gained admission to the State Bar of Georgia in 1994 and has maintained membership since then. Over the years he secured the right to practice before a range of tribunals. His admissions include the Georgia Supreme Court, the Georgia Court of Appeals, and the federal courts in the Northern and Middle Districts of Georgia. That mix of state and federal credentials has allowed him to take cases across trial and appellate levels.
Hippe established a private practice operating as The Law Office of Russell H. Hippe III, LLC. He has run that practice from its office base in Georgia and has guided its day-to-day work and client intake. The firm name reflects a solo or small-firm structure, and his career path shows a steady course rather than frequent lateral moves.
People who have worked with him describe a practitioner who moves methodically through case work. His court admissions indicate familiarity with appellate procedure and trial dockets. He has handled filings, hearings and submissions in both state appellate panels and federal district courts. He brings courtroom experience to file preparation, and he has navigated multiple levels of Georgia’s judiciary.
Outside of courtrooms, Hippe’s long-standing bar membership suggests sustained engagement with the local legal community. He has kept his professional standing current in the State Bar of Georgia since 1994. That continuity points to a practice rooted in the day-to-day realities of Georgia law rather than short-term ventures.
He currently handles matters through The Law Office of Russell H. Hippe III, LLC, where he works on litigation and appellate matters across Georgia.
