Megan Phillips, Family Attorney
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Tom and I have worked together on business and IP cases over the past several years. He is careful, conscientious and smart. Better yet, he makes sure his clients are paying far less than the market would demand for his legal services. Tom's clients rely on him again and again because he is the type of guy you'd would want as a trusted confidante, not only a lawyer. I can personally vouch for his unfailing efforts to find creative solutions to complex problems. For these reasons, I could not possibly recommend him more highly.
Patrick Taggart, Business Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I have known Tom for some time and have also had the pleasure of working with him on occasion. I have always found him to be well versed in the law and a tireless worker for his clients.
