Always prepared
Darrin is always ahead of the game and doesn’t back down to some big oppositions. He has helped me out of a few situations and I was never disappointed.

Great communicator, strong arbitrator, fair businessperson!
Darrin Phillips is great to work with. He is knowledgeable and well experienced. He will listen carefully, ask the right questions and craft a strategy that works. He will clearly answer the questions you have without setting false expectations and also does an excellent job of preparation for each stage of the case as well as preparing the client for what's next. I found him to be easy to work with, exceptionally quick with responses and follow-up, very tough when needed but also willing to find the better path to resolution. Fair rates and practices. I would use him again. Like

Personal Injury Case
Having Darrin Phillips represent me recently in my case involving an injury was an absolute blessing. I have never worked with an attorney in the past and needless-to-say I was unsure of the process that was about to unfold. I was overwhelmed and stressed with the thought of litigation. Darrin was very patient and honest with my many questions and concerns. He gave me his undivided attention, kept me informed each step of the way, and always responded quickly to my phone calls. He truly is an intelligent and respectable professional with a caring attitude. I can say nothing but good things about the service he provides. As a result of his hard work throughout the entire process and his expert communication with the defense counsel, we reached a favorable settlement. Darrin is certainly a credit to his profession! With that said I am very confident and would highly recommend his services.

Best Attorney I've ever hired
Darrin helped me with an unfortunate situation with my former employer. He earns his fees and always had my best interest in mind when dealing with opposing counsel. I have referred some of my friends to Mr. Phillips since he handled my issue. Thank you Darrin!!!

DARRIN PHILLIPS-OUTSTANDING
I actually first met Mr. Phillips when he was opposing counsel. I was so impressed with his skill, professionalism, (and victory) that when I needed legal representation years later his was the first name that came to mind. My case was complex and intricate in detail. Mr. Phillips' vast knowledge of case law and legal precedents successfully navigated us through the many legal processes and mediation to deliver a huge, exhilarating victory in court. I've worked with dozens of attorneys over the years and Mr. Phillips is, clearly, at the top of the list. He is exceptionally knowledgeable of his craft, articulate, professional, and will work tirelessly on your behalf. If your situation warrants you reading this, you owe it to yourself to contact Mr. Phillips.

Darrin Phillips - Pragmatic
I was referred to Darrin by a dear friend who is an Employment Attorney in the Washington, D.C. area. She knew of Darrin and did further research before formally referring me to him. I was never disappointed. Darrin made arrangements to meet with me soon after I called him. The introductory meeting was very professional yet, welcoming. I shared with Darrin the particulars of my case and he was quick to grasp the salient issues. He outlined with a great deal of clarity the steps that he was going to be taking and the responsed that he expected from opposing counsel. The appropriate filings were made and the opportunity of arbitration was offerred. Again, Darrin clearly explained what he was going to be doing and the results that he expected from opposing counsel as well as the arbiter. He was spot-on. The arbitration went as expected and a fair settlement was reached. Darrin was not stuck on his proving the case, but took a very pragmatice approach to the offers that the opposing counsel offerred. I was very pleased with his professionalism and his results
