Fantastic Attorney!

I hired Phil Gardner to consult with us on a real estate matter in March 2011. He was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with always! I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a competent, experienced attorney!

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Phil Gardner is probably one of the finest lawyers in the Commonwealth of Virginia. His reputation is stellar both as a criminal defense attorney and as a civil litigator. When I was a prosecutor, Mr. Gardner was a formidable foe in the courtroom. When I saw his name on the docket next to a Defendant I would frankly prepare more for his cases. If there was a problem with my case, he would always vigorously and methodically bring it to the Court's attention. I also had the privilege to work for Mr. Gardner as an associate while I proceeded with my plan to start my own practice. There I observed the man firsthand. Mr. Gardner has a work ethic that is second to no one. He works extremely hard for his clients, no matter their background or how uphill the fight may be. I learned a lot from Mr. Gardner. Would highly recommend."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
