Love my grandson.

Phillip is my son's Attorney. He knows the law and has helped my family so much. Even the times we wanted to throw in the towel he never let my son give up. If you need a caring attorney who knows the law this is who you need. I can't thank Phillip enough for all he has done.

Best Alabama Attorney

Mr. Bahakel really knows the law and doesn't want an arm and a leg to explain it. After being deceived by my previous attorney, Mr. Bahakel set my mind at ease. He gave me great advice and pointed me in the right direction, without charging me a dime. Yes, he offers free consultations although he ...gives out so much useful legal advice, he should really start charging!!! I will definitely use Mr. Phillip Bahakel for all of my legal needs and I highly recommend him!!!

Great Lawyer!!!!! Really stop surfing the Net!! He really looks out for the CHILD'S well being. He is former judge who knows the Law. I received Full custody of my daughter being that the mother deprived me of my right to see her. Finally, the law worked for us Great Fathers who really want to be ...in their child's life!!! Highly recommend this lawyer, trust me I have not been paid to say any of this I just know how it feels to keep trying and trying and no progress. This guy is the real deal! God bless!

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.
