OPPOSING COUNSEL
Jordan was opposing counsel in my case. While I am deeply grateful for (and blown away by) my own attorney’s performance and ultimately the outcome, I couldn’t help but notice and respect Jordan’s efforts throughout the process.

Valued Resource and Advocate
I have had the pleasure of working with Attorney Phelps for the last 5 years. He has been both a strong advocate and a beacon of hope in a very difficult process helping me navigate the legal system.
"Attorney Phelps and I had a difficult case against each other that we were able to work through amicably. Now, whenever I have a divorce that I’m conflicted out of for whatever reason, I refer them to Attorney Phelps. I know he’ll leave no stone unturned without resorting to a blood feud making him an effective advocate for his clients."
