"I am 19 years old and I was wrongfully arrested and was in need of a lawyer and someone who would work with me on payments. I got Mr. Holloway's contact from a friend and as soon as I called him and explained to him what my situation was, he got right on the case. I had a great feeling from the moment I spoke to him. He worked with me and he knew what he was talking about. He kept me updated every step of the way. He was honest with me and my charge was dismissed. He is an EXCELLENT attorney."

Excellent

Mr. Holloway was our first choice when our son needed an attorney for a traffic ticket. Phil was very responsive to our requests and we received excellent advise. Would pay him double what he charged us!

INCREDIBLE, The most dedicated and Professional attorney to his Clients!

I hired Mr. Holloway last year for his professional services. I talked with 3 lawyers before i talked with him. I knew right away that he was the man i needed in my corner. From start to finish i could have not been happier. He alway kept me informed of what was going on, always was there to talk... if i needed him, openly honest, and very professional. He made me feel very comfortable and easy to talk with from our very first meeting. I can not say enough about Mr. Holloway. I highly recommend him if your in need of a highly qualified lawyer.

The Real Deal

I have hired lawyers in the past and the outcome has always ended up worse than what I was presented during the initial consultation. In the past I had a lawyer (not Philip) show up for my court date completely unprepared not to mention 30 minutes after the judge had already gone off the bench. I en...ded up getting the book thrown at me. I would have been better off representing myself. This happened five years ago and I will not soon forget how disappointing it was to work with someone so unprofessional. I found myself in a predicament last year and my professional and personal life was at stake. I spent several days consulting with attorneys in Marietta. Philip was the first attorney that I talked to and after consulting with several other firms in the area I decided to hire him. He was not the least expensive of all the attorneys that I talked too but he was by far the most knowledgeable. Every question that I had for him he was able to answer immediately. He gave me an accurate assessment of what the charges were and how hard they would be to fight. He proposed a multilayered strategy to give me the best possible chance of beating or reducing the charges that I had against me. When my court date came around he was there and he was well prepared to go to trial. His presence in the court room shows how well respected he is by the judges, law enforcement officers and the prosecution. He was able to resolve my case and the results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Philip if you need solid legal representation in Cobb County
