Worked with Phillip with great results

Phillip is an amazing attorney. I have worked with him on many occasions. He is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and fights hard for his clients. I would recommend him to anyone.

Highly recommend you get him as your Attorney

Mr. Chalker is indeed a legal guru. I don't know how he does it but he indeed knows the law and how to work his work around. I worked with Phillip Chalker on a case that I had initially lost all hope for specifically with trying to work on it myself. I almost gave up until I consulted him. During our... conversation, he was very honest with me on outcomes and options to resolve the issue. I took his word for it and let him be the lead. In the end, he proved to be very honest with what he said; He knew the Laws of Maryland far more than any other attorney I had consulted, and his intention was not on the money but rather winning the case and meeting his clients needs according to the Laws of the land, unlike other attorneys that I had consulted with before him who seem to be money driven. His fees was very reasonable compared to others. I have worked with a few attorneys from different states in the past and I would say Mr. Phillip is my to go to person Law matters for Maryland. Oh and one thing to add is that he is very organized with documentation, prioritizes cases in their order of urgency and definitely gets on then as needed. He has not only helped me in one or two cases but in multiple cases and they have all had successful outcomes. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs legal help in Baltimore. Once again thank you to The Law Office of Phillip E. Chalker for the teamwork and effort you put into winning cases.

Professional, Knowledgeable + Honest Attorney

Phillip worked with me in a landlord-tenant dispute. Phillip took the time to review and analyze extensive material to build a strong case for me, and was completely upfront and honest every step of the way regarding how the case might go. He is very thorough, totally knowledgeable, and truly a pleas...ure to work with. The outcome of the case was positive, and if I were ever to need legal assistance again, he would be the first one to call. I recommend every aspect of his work ethic and professionalism.

Excellent legal representation

After interviewing and contacting several lawyers, I hired Phillip Chalker because he seemed sincere and ready to represent my daughter, and eventually my wife as well, in a legal matter in Baltimore. We met with him, provided documentation, talked over the legal issues involved and he outlined sever...al options. Over the course of several months (because of court delays) he communicated clearly and quickly with us. He always was willing to pursue whatever course of action we wanted, and did not push us to what he thought best. The case headed to trial and he prepared an extensive file of exhibits and documentation, advised my daughter carefully on how to conduct herself in court and communicated several times with the opposing attorney. In the end, we reached a mutually agreeable settlement. Throughout, he was professional, helpful and thoroughly enjoyable to work with. We'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

Professional, Helpful Attorney

After trying to solve my case for almost a year (even with the assistance of the Attorney General of MD), I contacted Mr. Chalker for legal help. Originally, I contacted other attorneys as well, many of whom would not take my case, didn't return calls, or had extremely high rates. After speaking to... Mr. Chalker on the phone, we met in person and he took my case. Mr. Chalker was always very professional and kept me "in the loop" about any negotiations via email and phone. He took my opinion into consideration when negotiating and got a settlement without having to appear in court. The settlement amount was substantially higher than what I would've gotten if I had been representing myself. Hopefully, I won't need an attorney again, but if I do, I know where to go! Thanks for all of the help, Mr. Chalker.
