A very good ethical Attorney

I hired Ms. Phillips to represent me. She went above and beyond my expectations. She followed thru and followed up on every aspect of my case from beginning to end. Also, she kept me informed of things that I would have never knew otherwise as a defendent. I would recommend her services for those wh...o seek superior representation.

Avvo Rating

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.
