Posted by Dennis | August 06, 2015 | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Great Job!

Mr. Morse has represented me and my family on several occasions (teenage traffic tickets & a rent/possession case). He has always prevailed in court and/or had traffic charges lessened by the city prosecutors involved. I would recommend his services to anyone in need of a trustworthy advocate.

Phillip I. Morse's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Phillip
Leigh Joy Carson headshot
Leigh Carson

DUI and DWI lawyer | Feb 29

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Philip is deceptive with his gracious and supremely polite manner. In that old-fashioned Atticus Finch manner (To Kill a Mockingbird) he will methodically destroy the arresting officer so thoroughly that the Prosecutor will be speechless. It is amazing to see him rip the witness's heart out of his chest and shove it down their throat before saying thank with an almost imperceptible bow before he resumes his seat. He is a defense attorney you can trust."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Phillip is brilliant, personable and great with clients. He makes himself accessible 24/7. I'd highly recommend him to anyone."

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.
