Medical malpractice

Mr.Phillips represented our teenage daughter in a medical malpractice case that was settled in 2011. Robert went above and beyond for us in a very difficult time. He came to our home and was completely honest with us, he explained everything along the way and kept us in the loop over time. Mr.Phillip...s treated our family with respect and did an incredible job for our daughter. He is a confident attorney with a great deal of experience and knowledge.Not only did Mr.Phillips help get our daughter the monetary compensation she would need to take care of herself for her lifetime, he also helped guide her in the right direction to set herself up for success. Mr. Phillips is a man of great integrity and will not let you down. Without hesitation, our family will always recommend him to anyone in need of his services. We are truly appreciative. Highly recommend! Sincerely, The Gross Family of Des Plaines, I

Highly Recommend the services of Robert B. Phillips, IV

On 2/16/10 we have reached out to Robert Phillips concerning an incident that took place involving our mother. The question we asked was whether we should pursue legal action. Mr. Phillips returned my call within 24 hours. I explained the situation. He was honest in his response and had indicated ...that based on the family's decision, he would be happy to represent the family. During the entire course of the case, Mr. Phillips and his firm was responsive to all questions, as well as, responsive to meeting with my siblings should they have any questions. He looked out for the family, but again was also honest in terms of possible outcomes. He took the time to answer and educate us how the process works, the role of Medicare, as well as, the defendant. Though you cannot replace a life lost, the compassion in which Mr. Phillips and firm took in working with our family and coming to an amicable resolution was greatly appreciated. Mr. Phillips and his firm explained everything step-by-step. And, some of those outcomes he explained could take place did, but due to his expertise and education we were not taken by surprise. When I would make a call to F/U, my calls were returned immediately, and in some cases we were able to connect with Mr. Phillips via conference call when he was out of the office. On behalf of myself and my family, we highly recommend the services of Robert B. Phillips, IV.

Fantastic

Mr. Phillips handled my case very professionally, he is extremely knowledgeable and kept me well informed throughout. I had complete confidence and trust in him, unfortunately due my condition and situation this case was very intense and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to represent me. I coul...dn't have gotten through this if it wasn't for his kindness and humanity, he really fought for me I would and will definitely recommend Mr. Phillips to everyone.
