corporate ceo

I highly recommend Phillip Day, especially for estate planning and living trusts. He is extremely helpful in making everything clear, and he is always accessible. This is a lawyer who is service oriented, not simply a billing machine.

Estate planning lawyer | Apr 24

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I strongly endorse Phillip Day as an attorney in all estate planning and tax-related areas. I've had the pleasure of working with Phil on several estate planning projects -- his knowledge and expertise are second-to-none. Phil's experience speaks volumes: he has worked for a large corporate firm; he has worked in the financial planning arena for a corporate bank; and he has worked as a CPA for a prominent accounting firm. Add his experience to his educational background (law degree, masters of laws in tax, MBA, CPA and CFP designation) and you have a trusts & estates lawyer of the first degree that cannot be matched in the Tampa Bay area. Whether it's basic estate planning or a sophisticated transaction, Phil is at the top of the legal profession. "

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.
