Highly Recommended (Divorce)

Phillip Rutherford is Amazing! Even with this COVID-19 Pandemic going on he was always there answering my calls, replying to my emails and returning my calls. Going into this Divorce process from not knowing exactly what to do, fill out he explained it to me very thoroughly. His fee’s are very reason...able for sure because I called around just like everyone else and he definitely beats the price and does the work. He listens and gives you the best advice. He took care of everything and I just waited for my Court date. I couldn’t be anymore thankful. I would definitely recommend Mr. Rutherford. Call his office for that consultation you will not be disappointed.

Family Guardianship was Awarded!!

Attorney Rutherford did a fantastic job when it came to delivering results for my case. I contacted Phillip Rutherford, among other attorneys, searching for someone that can help me obtain guardianship over my mentally impaired parent. He was among the first attorneys to give me a callback and the on...ly one I felt confident about. She was a ward of the state at the time due to prior circumstances. He did not guarantee me a positive outcome and was transparent throughout the entire process. I can say with confidence that he gave me his best, even during the COVID-19 Pandemic. I am thrilled to say that I was just awarded full guardianship with his help to watch over my parent adequately. Attorney Rutherford showed grit and determination with my case. I highly recommend his services to anyone that needs an attorney for family matters.

Highly Recommended

Coming into a divorce I had no idea what to expect. Mr. Rutherford set my expectations from day 1 and guided me through the process every step of the way. Anytime I had a question he would answer it promptly and made me feel my concerns were always taken seriously. Dealing with a second party who ...was not responsive and a court system that was constantly delayed due to the pandemic would have been very stressful if not for Phillip. He stayed on top of all parties and made sure everything was in place to keep moving forward. I would highly recommend Phillip to anyone in need of his services.
