DO NOT USE

Do not use this lawyer. We contracted his services in February of 2022. He rarely returned calls or emails. When the time came to Zoom call with the magistrate he was totally unprepared such that the magistrate became so annoyed, he shut down the session. We paid Mr. Karle over $6000 for absolute...ly nothing. He did not disclose to us that he had a neurological disease that impaired his ability to represent.

A great Attorney

The 1st thing I remember when meeting Philip was his Genuine interest in helping me with my father's estate. He is an extraordinary listener and Extremely knowledgeable In his field of expertise. He does not waste Your time And gets right to the point. Moreover his staff are very professional and res...ponds to call and text in short order. You can tell a lot about a person by the people they have working with them. He takes a lot of time explaining the legal matter to the client

Maybe strictly bankruptcy and foreclosure lawyer

Mr. Philip does not return phone calls or emails, always have an excuse that he never received them. Presented himself as a knowledgeable contract dispute attorney, which he is not, suffers from lack of knowledge in business transactions and almost cost us to lose a lawsuit that he supposedly was re...presenting us. Found out that he had previous complains with the Florida bar, he is refusing to give us back the whole file and also receipts for all the funds that he collected in the pass. Will never recommend him and his services to anyone due to the fact that they are extremely poor and unprofessional and that the complainant has been already filed against him and he was reprimanded by the Florida bar.

Worse Legal Ever

This lawyer has got to be the worse. I hired him and his only time to communicate was to collect money. He is never ready for meetings and is unattentive when there. I had to release him after loosing thousands on wasted time,

Great Lawyer

Phil is one of the most ethical guys I know. He takes a lot of time explaining the legal matter to the client. He also works very hard to make sure that the client's best interests are represented. I felt like he took my case very personally and did not stop until the outcome was favorable to me. ...I HIGHLY recommend this guy!
