Thank You Johnny

Johnny believed in me when other attorneys doubted me and released me. My claim against a rental car company, a manufacturer, and a tire shop and perhaps more parties. Johnny said that my case was unique and he wants to take it....I was so stunned he retained me and my daughter...it was unreal. After... being rejected by 40 law offices. I thank God above for this attorney. (Psalms 83:18)

Professional Services

When I came to Johnny Phillips law I was really disheartened with my previous attorney. However, his confidence and determination put me at ease. No matter what the question no matter how many calls he handled them with the greatest ease. His staff always displayed the most professional behavior a...nd returned all calls within a reasonable amount of time. I would recommend this firm to anyone.

CLIENT

Mr. Phillips represented me competently and settled my case in mediation. He is a smart attorney and a good litigator/mediator. I was kept abreast of each phase of the process which was really helpful in that I've never been through anything like this before. The updates helped pace my expectations f...or closure.

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.
