I endorse this lawyer. Phil Pilgrim is a gentleman, a professional, a warrior and a winner. He was a great prosecutor and is now an even better defense attorney. He is always prepared and his knowledge of evidence and the criminal code is excellent. As for the courtroom, Phil has the "X" factor. You can't teach it -- although you may be able to refine it. Phil knows how to pick and engage a jury -- they love him at trial. His courtroom techniques and professionalism mix nicely with the "nasty dog" attitude you have to muster up from time to time to be a warrior for your client. Phil is a master in all areas of criminal law, especially DUI defense. Phil has had several very nice strings of "Not Guilty" jury verdicts since he became a defense attorney. In conclusion, Phil Pilgrim is the kind of attorney you want defending your criminal case.

I first knew Phil when he was prosecuting in the Forsyth County Solicitor's Office. Now that he is in private practice, Phil takes this valuable trial experience with him. Phil just tried a 2+ week murder trial and was extremely well-prepared and organized, and hired a very effective expert witness to aid in the defense of his client. His work ethic is above reproach and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an experienced attorney to fight their case in court.

As a former Forsyth County prosecutor, I have had the opportunity to be on the opposite side of Phil in the courtroom on many occasions. We even had a week where he and I tried two jury trials against each other. Phil has a genuine and personable demeanor in the courtroom that he wields effectively alongside his passionate and zealous advocacy for his clients. He has a great rapport with opposing counsel, police officers and the judges and is a well respected lawyer. I am privileged to consider him a colleague and a worthy adversary. I highly recommend him.

While he can be tenacious in court, he balances this strength with just the right amount of diplomacy. This is a fine line that Phil manages very well. This combination allows him to be a powerful advocate for his clients. I am not alone in my high opinion of his professionalism and strong work ethic.
