Best Lawyer Possible for Disfiguring Dog Bite

Robert Phillips became our lawyer for my daughter's dog bite to her face, which happened at the house of a family friend. He was extremely adept at charting the options for us and working with the insurance company to get fair compensation, which greatly exceeded our family's expectations, and was w...ell over 10 times the original offer. Our settlement was in the very top ranking for this type of injury. The great thing about Robert is that he is extraordinarily aggressive and proactive regarding all the legal activities, but very importantly to us, we all felt comfortable with him. Some Personal Injury lawyers are kind of gross, but Robert is a really decent and fair guy, always outlining a course of action that made sense. His experts are all professional (rather than professional experts who don't come off as well in court) and his photographer was really gentle with my young child, quickly gaining trust and alleviating the embarrassment of the facial scar. Robert pointed out the options at each step in the way - and had good judgment in how hard to push and when to be patient. I have complete confidence in his abilities and can recommend him without hesitation.
