Phillip Andrew Ortiz

Phillip handled my criminal case for DUI. This isn’t the law he most often practices but he did everything to educate himself. He was always honest, upfront and nonjudgmental. He believed in me, he was genuine and finally we won. NOT GUILTY! But in case you find yourself in my shoes uneducated on any... sort of criminal or legal process, the following is a little more detailed. To begin, I called him just a half hour after being released from jail. My job involves driving so you can imagine the distress I was in about my license… Within the hour he was able to gather all the documents necessary as well as instruction for my completion of them in order to begin the hardship process and keep my right to drive for work. My case went eight months before being set for trial. During the eight months Phillip was always a text message or phone call away. He never went more than an hour without responding, which in this situation was extremely comforting because I had no priors and was extremely unfamiliar with this process. No matter how many questions I had or how many times he had to repeat himself, he always did so in a respectful and informative manner. Finally, looking back now when it came to trial he was very strategic and smart about how and when to explain things to me. While being very honest, he simultaneously put me at ease and gave me hope. I knew he believed and wanted the NOT GUILTY just as badly as I needed it. I never shared this with him, but in those eight months I spoke with many lawyers over the phone about my case and possible consultation. I was always unsure of whether I had made the right decision going to a lawyer that didn’t specialize in DUI like everyone strongly suggests. But not one of them were as authentic as Phillip truly is, which is why I never met with any of them. I would argue that authenticity and trust are perhaps the most important characteristics anyone should want in a lawyer. Phillip changed my life. I would have been fired and all of the money I have invested in school would have been nothing more but a debt waiting to be collected. I highly recommend him for representation.

Philip and his firm went above and beyond what seems to be the standards for most law offices in "todays" world. The Firm Law groups knowledge and insight, attention to detail, accessibility and communication earn these guys a very positive 5 star review and more importantly one very happy client wh...om actually had a positive experience when dealing with legal matters. I would highly recommend these guys!

I have had the opportunity and pleasure of working with Mr. Ortiz on a number of pre-suit and post-suit matters. Mr. Ortiz is extremely effective in both respects. He truly understands how to evaluate a case and provide the client with a truthful assessment of their case. Such is an invaluable too...l in this profession. Moreover, Mr. Ortiz's courtroom experience and demeanor should put any client at ease if they must proceed with litigation.

My family and I are very fortunate that we met Mr. Ortiz when we did. I was both in the process of purchasing a new home and dealing with some criminal legal issues with a family member. I was surprised to learn that not only did Mr. Ortiz handle both areas of law, but that he was extremely knowledge...able and proficient in both areas. His legal advice was directly on point, he helped us resolve both issues very favorably, and he was available every single time we had a question or concern. I will certainly retain Mr. Ortiz again in the future, and I would recommend him to any and all friends or family members looking for legal counsel.
