Can anyone recommend a place in new york that can expedite the multi entry visa for russia. I know it can take 2 weeks. Is there any place that can take care of it in 10 days? Even by mail. Thanks

In reality, nobody can expedite it for you any more than the Russian consulate themselves. They have a procedure in place for expedited processing (3 business days):

Visa fees:

The only place, essentially, that you should be submitting your hard-copy application to:
https://ils-usa.com
Note that they only expedite processing of 3-yr multiple entry in "cases of emergency". That doesn't apply to other kinds of visas.
Why look for a middleman?

As I recall , ILS ( lower Manhattan , on Maiden Lane ) is your best bet . They are the linked contractor for The Russian consulate , and did the processing for my three year visas in 2015

I used ILS in Washington DC back in 2016 and had my visa back within a week (I live in SE Virginia). Probably important to note that I went to their office in person on a Monday morning so there was a whole work week for processing.
