Trustworthy & Fierce

It’s hard to trust most lawyers these days. I was skeptical about hiring a woman lawyer but my friend used her and said great things about her. Hilary understood me and didn’t try to pressure me. She earned my trust and respect. She’s not easy because she wants you to work hard while your her client.... But she really cares and fights for you on every level. I’m in a better situation now because she helped me as a person too.

Worth every penny

Ms. Phillips was my lawyer when I was charged with some violent felonies. She looks like a nice lady (and she is) but she's a tough dedicated fighter and will protect you no matter what. It was easy to get in touch and trust her. She reminded me of my court dates and worked with my employer to exp...lain dates and why I had to go to therapy every week so I wouldn't lose my job. She got a good plea but I wanted to go to trial and she supported me 100%. I was found not guilty of all the charges. Ms. Phillips isn't cheap but she's worth every penny!

Incredible Lawyer!

From our initial conversation, we knew Ms. Phillips was the lawyer for us. We had spoken with two other lawyers and the fees were the first thing they quoted,...not Hilary. Every time we spoke, at anytime, day or night, we had her full attention. Each question or concern was promptly addressed. S...he guided our family through a traumatic time. We were very happy with the results of our case. Hilary reinforces the point that you are an important part of a team that she leads. We would recommend her to anyone needing legal representation...She fights for YOU!

Best Criminal Lawyer in Town!

Hilary is the best!! She was always available by phone and I called her at night and the weekend. She explained the process I was facing, fee arrangements and refused to let me hire her until I had consulted with 2 other lawyers. She was more interested in me being comfortable than making money. ...She fought for me and created some options that hadn’t been used before. She was 100% in for my case. My case was resolved in the best possible way and I would not consider hiring anyone besides her.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
