Very smart lawyer!!

My husband was arrested for domestic battery. He was never arrested before, we where not sure where to turn, Philip made us feel so much better, he explained the procedure and answered all of our questions, he was very patient and thorough, He also gave me advice 3 other lawyers I contacted didn’t, t...hat got my husband released without even spending the night in jail!! This was priceless to us. We are very happy to say our case was dismissed and we would recommend his services for any legal problem you have. Thanks again Joanne and Philip!!

AVERBUCK WON MY FREEDOM

I WAS IN POLK COUNTY JAIL FOR 15 MONTHS. I WAS CHARGED WITH BURGLARY, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE WITH STRANGULATION, TAMPERING WITH A WITNESS, RESISTING ARREST WITHOUT VIOLENCE AND PRESCRIPTION MEDS WITHOUT A PRESCRIPTION . WE WENT TO TRIAL FOR THE MISDEMEANORS CHARGES AND WE WON . WE GOT A JUDGEMENT OF A...CQUITTAL ON BOTH CHARGES. DURING THE MOTION TO SUPPRESS FOR THE MISDEMEANORS, THE COP TOOK THE STAND WHO ARRESTED ME. PHILIP CROSSED EXAMINED THE COP. PHILIP CAUGHT THE COP LYING AND CONTRADICTING HIMSELF . EVEN THE JUDGE SAID THE COP WAS CONTRADICTING HIMSELF . PHILIP'S CROSS EXAMINATIONS WAS LIKE WATCHING MICHELANGELO PAINTING THE SISTINE CHAPEL . PHILIP MADE A MASTER PIECE DURING CROSS EXAMINATION AND TRIAL . FOR THE FELONIES HE GOT ME THE DEAL I NEEDED. DROPPED ALL CHARGES TO MISDEMEANORS, WITHHELD ADJUDICATION, 2 YEARS PROBATION, AND I GOT TO KEEP MY RN LICENSE . I AM FREE AT LAST . I GET TO HUG MY BABY SON FOR THE FIRST TIME AND KISS MY WIFE, AFTER 15 MONTHS . WITH ALL MY HEART I LOVE YOU PHILIP ! I LOVE YOU JOEANN ! THANK YOU FOR FIGHTING FOR ME AND NOT GIVING UP !

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.
