Posted by Kelly | January 27, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Helping me with a child custody matter of jurisdiction.

He gave me advice in 2014 I didn't take, in a divorce I should have gotten. Now its 2017 and here we go again. Scott has been very diligent in helping me this time around, and has done an excellent job with only 3 days notice getting everything filed, and keeping me calm while explaining everything i...n great detail. I'm currently in Pa. So its been very tricky. I have a lot of faith in Mr. Phillips he's always gone above and beyond, and his advice is golden. I definitely recommend him!!

  • 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.
