About Philip
Biography
I am very concerned about the increasing aggression for warrantless searches against citizens shown by law enforcement that I see in my practice. It appears that many of them do not even care about the Fourth Amendment of the US Constitution, and pretend that front doors to homes do not mean anything. They even make traffic stops for no other purpose but to search "suspicious" vehicles.
We defense attorneys need to be zealous about defending the Fourth Amendment rights that belong to ALL of us-- they are a precious heritage from our Founding Fathers!

Gentleman and a scholar.
Mr. Averbuck counseled me on a matter that at first had me worried. He explained the situation in ways that I understood and in fact told me I was not in the wrong after all. He took the time to make sure he saw all angles of the situation and was easy to talk to. HIGHLY recommend!

Great Experience!
I called Mr Averbuck with a hearing date with only 3 days to prepare. He was able to take my case and had it resolved within 2 days. I cannot thank him enough. He has an extensive knowledge base of the Polk County School Board.
