Excellent Attorney

I recently had a very complicated employment matter which I sought the advice of Mr. Flemming. First of all, Mr. Flemming seemed very experienced and had a great deal of knowledge of the law and my circumstances. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He turned something that was very bleak into som...ething that was positive for me. Thank you

Wrongful termination

My Flemming was very professional and handled my case in a very quick manner. I was given accurate advise and was told what they though I wanted to hear. The office was very communicative so I was always aware of what was going on. I very much appreciate their help in settling my case. Thank you! ...

Trusted Legal Counsel

My husband and I recently sought out Phil's legal counsel regarding a commercial lease dispute we were having with our new landlord. We were impressed with Phil's expediency, knowledge and expertise. He was able to point out the strengths and weaknesses of both arguments and he guided us all quickly ...to a resolution that left all parties on good terms - which is rare in these cases. Phil's high level of integrity coupled with his expertise makes him our most trusted legal counselor.

Wrongful Termination - Protected Class - Recovering Alcolholic

I was smart enough to contact Phil's office immediately after my termination. Luckily for me they had me meet with Phil Fleming that afternoon. Phil was understanding, compassionate to my situation, and came across as very knowledgeable and experienced. I decided immediately to hire him to represe...nt me. Typically, I perform a considerable amount of due diligence and research before I make such a decision, but it was clear to me that I found the right counselor and attorney to represent me and my interests. Phil always took my call, and responded quickly to my emails. Phil always had time to speak to me and communicate with me. When Phil called me, he would always ask "is this a good time for you to talk for a few minutes?" As a professional, I appreciated that he was ensuring that I was available to discuss the details of my case. I was EXTREMELY impressed with the demand letter that Phil drafted for that we sent to my employer. Phil was able to capture the essence of the harassment that I experienced and endured based on interviewing me and reading the evidence that I provided. Our second letter that accompanied the lawsuit that we were going to file definitely let my employer know that "we meant business!" I was in a "David vs. Goliath" situation and we managed to prove our point and obtain a fair settlement for me...much better than what they were offering. Phil also provided great counsel in that he guided me and told me when it was time to take the settlement, rather than me spend more money and not get anymore in settlement. Therefore I found Phil to be honest and trustworthy. I was so impressed with Phil, his work that he performed on my behalf, and his overall personality that I took him to lunch to say "thank you" for that service. I now consider Phil to be a friend and he is now the only attorney that I would turn to again if needed, and he is the attorney that I would recommend to my friends or colleagues that were facing a similar workplace legal matter. It is with great appreciation for Phil that I am writing this review for him, and I endorse him fully at 100% as an excellent attorney. Phil will do a great job for you. Sincerely, A Satisfied Professional in a suburb of Phoenix, M.B.A.

If you need employment representation in AZ look no further than Phil S. Flemming

Mr. Flemming professionally represented my interests and obtained the best possible result in the minimum amount of time. He was strong enough to tell me when I was wrong, and peaceful enough to calm me during a time of stress. He knows his business, is well acquainted with other employment attorney...s and diligently negotiated on my behalf. While I hope never to need his help again, if I need an employment attorney in AZ I will look no farther.
