First off I would like to use this review to thank Mr. Paul Phipps and his staff for always being professional. His staff always reminded me a week a head of time prior to any court appearances on where to be and what time. I even received calls a day prior. My divorce was probably the worse divorce ...in Tampa. I felt as if the justice system had fail me. That was until I met Paul Phipps. Paul changed my life. My ex-wife had left the city of Tampa with my two children. Every attempt I made to get a resolution through a previous attorney had failed. Paul not only had a rehearing in my case but through mediation I was able to gain full custody of my son and 50/50 timesharing with my daughter. There were unclean hands in my divorce proceeding that was unbelievable to most but Paul Phipps knowledge of the law provided me justice. Monies was taken from my 401k illegally, marital assets were sold, overpayments were made for child support and ex-wife had been receiving an overage from my pension for 39 months. Guess what, I got all of my money back and these issues that was outstanding for over 4 years are now resolved. I am not sure if the lawyers actually read these reviews but I want Paul to know that I appreciate his integrity and honor in providing the best service to his clients. Words cannot describe how you changed my life. I will always be grateful for your help with getting my life back on track. I truly feel that I not only found the best attorney in Tampa but I have found a friend. We all know that good friends are hard to find. I am sure the people want to know about attorney fees. His fees are reasonable, he works with you on payment, he don't charge you unnecessarily, and he is worth every dollar you spend. As long as I live in Tampa Florida, Paul Phipps will be my attorney and if I move from this location I will always reach back for consultation. The highest rating given on this review is Excellent but my personal rating for Paul Phipps is Outstanding because his services is off the chart. I feel like I got my monies worth. I am a satisfy customer and I am willing to tell the world about your expertise. Thanks a million Paul for all that you do. God bless you and your family. I am providing my email with this review and anyone that has a question about obtaining Paul Phipps as your attorney don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks again Paul Phipps and staff.

I have used Mr. Phipps on several occasions for a variety of issues, mostly related to family law. I have found him to be a good listener, straight forward in his answers, good at research, clear in communication. I would not use any other lawyer and have returned repeatedly. He is particularly stro...ng at being straight forward and efficient. He will not over promise. I have had others that set expectations high in order to prolong a dispute and cost. Not Paul. He is very fair in his pricing, truly serving his clients. In once case, he was opposing a difficult lawyer and I was able to observe not only good research skills, but excellent mediation skills to get us past an impasse that could have costs us a great deal of time and money.

Mr. Phipps had represented my family on various matters and has done an excellent job. When other attorneys required exorbitant retainers, his was reasonable. His billing is extremely fair, both for phone discussions and court representation. Mr. Phipps's legal advice is always sound and guides you i...n the right direction for your particular circumstances. He sets your expectations realistically and prepares you for next steps. I have recommended him several times to others.

My former attorney Paul J. Phipps helped me with my divorce case. I was battling a simple divorce with a spouse that was not making it anything but simple. Mr. Phipps had guided me in the proper steps on how to handle the divorce in the most cost effective and speedy turn around. I felt that Mr. ...Phipps went out of his way to to assist me not just because I was a paid client but he seemed to genuinely care about my best interest and understood what I was wanting and needed. I would recommend Mr. Phipps to all of my friends and family in the matters of any legal advice or service they might need , as well as using him again for myself in the future if needed. He was extremely organized as well as extremely knowledgeable and I always felt comfortable and knew I was in great hands. He was all around a great lawyer and a great person.

When I first met Paul Phipps I was desperate to solidify my parental rights. I didn't have a lot of money and even less faith in the legal system. I was afraid I would forever be a "weekend dad" (or worse) to my daughter. Her mother and I couldn't agree to anything and I really needed help. All I wan...ted was an equal part in my daughter's life, and thanks to having the truth and this lawyer, that's exactly what I got. It wasn't easy or quick but it was worth it and I give Paul a lot of credit for helping to make that happen. From the beginning Paul was very easy to talk to. He's a great listener and source of advice. I never had a problem with getting in touch with him, he never missed an appointment, and was always on time. I felt like he was truly on my side and genuinely cared about doing the right thing for me and my family. His retainer fee was fair and he allowed me to make monthly installments to pay my bill as we went along. He gave me opportunities to do some of my own legwork to save money rather than just doing it himself to get paid. I never once felt like he was just trying to get more money from me. This was, in my opinion, a long court battle and I got what I paid for. In court, he kicked ass! He was able to anticipate the opposing lawyers actions and he was right on top of it. He was prepared and truly professional. He never fumbled or hesitated. That day in court I really felt justice. I have recommended Paul to friends and co-workers and will continue to do so. Custody battles can get really tough, Paul will help you get through it.
