CINCINNATI, OHIO – 2/24/2025 – DBL Law is pleased to announce that Russell J. Mock, a seasoned
attorney with nearly three decades of legal experience, has joined the firm’s Cincinnati office. With a
distinguished career spanning both public service and private practice, Mock brings a wealth of knowledge
in litigation, judicial leadership, and legal strategy.
Mock most recently served as the Chief Assistant Prosecuting Attorney for the Municipal Division of the
Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office, where he managed a team of 16 attorneys. In this leadership role, he
oversaw high-volume caseloads, mentored junior attorneys, and spearheaded training initiatives.

Beyond his legal practice, Mock has demonstrated a strong commitment to community service. As
Chairman of the Hamilton County Republican Party, he has worked closely with local leaders, donors, and
key stakeholders to advance community initiatives. He has also been actively involved in several
professional organizations, including the Ohio State Bar Association, the Cincinnati Bar Foundation, and
the Potter Stewart American Inn of Court.
