drug case

In two years and 6500$ later I was still sentenced to the first offer plus work release.

Excellent Attorney

Philip Averbuck is a 5 star all the way, he was genuinely interested in both cases I had with him, he also let me make payments which at the time was critical, definitely would recommend with criminal law.

Simply the best.

After consulting with numerous attorneys I called Mr. Averbuck's office and had a consult with him and there was no need look any further. Yes, Mr. Averbuck was a bit more money than other attorneys in the area but you really do get what you pay for and we hired him. This is what I can say my husban...d who violated his probation received less punishment with Mr. Averbucks representation and the other guy arrested with no criminal record who was arrested with my husband is still waiting for resolution.

Great defense lawyer

I highly recommend Mr. Averbuck. Very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Once I went in for my consultation he put my mind at ease in that stressful time. I explained my case and he clearly told me what he could do for me and I hired him. A little over a month later my case was dismissed. Awesome l...awyer and Awesome assistant always kept me updated and informed until it was over.

Juvenile Case

I called Mr. Averbuck’s office for a juvenile case. I was very impressed with the attention and service that I received from him and Joeann, from the beginning. My case was in Hardee County, which was a distance for Mr. Averbuck to travel. He willingly and happily helped us tremendously. His knowledg...e of law and relationships with the court/prosecutor was exactly what I would look for when hiring an attorney. Many thanks to Mr. Averbuck and his staff for the outstanding commitment and outcome in our case.
