Philip Juluis Schipani

I hired Mr. Schipani for my divorce and custody proceedings, and without question he will fight for you and more importantly your child's rights as well. My case has been more than a challenge to say the least. Phil has always been available to answer my call and address questions and concerns day ...or night, week and weekends. He is absolutely one of the most compassionate and caring attorneys I've ever come across! He knows the laws and will use what ever means available to aid you in getting the results you and your child/children deserve. Could not ask for better representation. If you want to hire someone who knows their stuff, cares about you and your situation, and your child then look no further! Hire Phil, you will not be disappointed he's not afraid to do what is right no matter how big the mountain to climb! However, downside is he is a Hokies and Hurricanes fan through in through! Better than a Gators fan though! Thanks for everything big guy! Honestly though, Phil is one of those few genuinely caring individuals you meet in life which I believe is rarity! You're the best!

When my ex husband and I decided to divorce, I contacted Mr. Schipani, he was able to consult with me the very next day. Mr. Schipani was very professional and explained things to help me understand the process. After hiring Mr. Schipani the process moved very quickly. He kept in communication with m...e and ensured me throughout the entire process that the things my ex was threatening to take from me (car, house, kids) would not happen, or at least would not happen the way my ex (who's in law enforcement) was saying they would. All because of the way Mr. Schipani handled mediation, I was able to keep my car, the house, and majority custody of the children. I appreciate all of the time and effort Mr. Schipani put into my case and eased my emotional pain by communicating with me through the entire process.

I have to agree with Stay Away. Mr S is definitely the most non-aggressive attorney to represent you. He even itemized on his billing that it was for "attendance in court" - definitely not representation at all. I honestly believe he didn't even read the documents prior to court. And yes, he was alwa...ys late. He even failed to register with the court and we showed up for a court date that was cancelled, but because they didn't know who the lawyer was we wasted hours waiting. He gave inaccurate information to the judge and we had to speak up and correct it. The final blow was after we ended up paying retroactive daycare expenses for the months WE had taken care of the child and she wasn't even enrolled in daycare, Mr. Schipani's reply was "Well, he should never have had a child with her (the wife) in the first place." Oh yes, and he failed to record all checks that we gave him. Make sure you pay with a credit card that will help you get back your money if need be. And always ask for an itemized bill. Ask a month later and the bill will have changed - different services, different fees.

Mr. Schipani handled an adult adoption for us with compassion and professionalism. He managed all of the court documents and made this process so easy for us. Mr. Schipani explained each step of the process and listened to our questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Mr. Schipani's servic...es to anyone needing a highly qualified and kind attorney.

I was in a child custody battle with a woman who was just ruthless. She hired an attorney that was even more ruthless and her family was paying all of her attorney fees so she didn’t care whether or not the action went to court. I begged her on multiple occasions to just fill out a parenting plan w...ith me but her only response was “I’ll see you in court”. Her whole case was based on lies. Her demands were ridiculous and her only goal was to hurt me. I interviewed 6 attorneys before hiring Philip Schipani. When other attorneys were making remarks like “maybe” and “hopefully”, Phil’s attitude was “why not more?” He took the time to completely understand my situation and fought in my best interest. Most of all, he kept me from saying or doing anything stupid that could hurt my case. Phil was able to draw up a settlement agreement in which we both came out on top. We were able to avoid a lengthy trial and I actually ended up getting more than I hoped for in the end. My child support payment is a fraction of what it could have been and if she ever decides to get a job she will have to pay me child support! Thank you Phil!
