Review Ryan McPhie

Easy and Reliable

Posted by

Ryan was absolutely fantastic! Whenever I met with him, I felt as though I was meeting him as a friend, rather than as a client. He explained everything to me in simple terms and made it all so easy. I would recommend him to anyone, as he was recommended to me. He helped me through my criminal speeding case and I was able to get off with the most minimal of punishments. If I ever needed a lawyer again, he would be the first I went to, if even for a recommendation. He knew exactly what he was talking about; I would trust him with anything.

great lawyer

Ryan was AMAZING

Posted by

We hired Ryan to represent our daughter for her order of protection the defendant was trying to get dismissed. He listened to all of her concerns and became well versed in the case very quickly. He didn’t have much time to prepare. He discussed strategies with her as well as prepared her to go on the stand so she would feel comfortable and know what to expect. He was extremely friendly and walked her through everything. He did his job with excellence and she prevailed! We couldn’t be more pleased with the services that Ryan provided. I would recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney and will use him again if needed in the future.

A GREAT TEAM!

Posted by

I would highly recommend Ryan & his team to represent you through those unfortunate life situations that come up. Ryan, Gabriel & Stephanie were with my family through both the traffic & criminal phases of the case. They kept us informed through the process & were quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Above all we were treated with the utmost respect. That is important when you already feel down & out.

Good Day!

Posted by

When you need to call a lawyer, you’re not having a good day. I called three different lawyers, the one that sounded the most confident, reassuring, and honest, was Ryan McPhie. He worked with us, not just for us. He used his knowledge , experience, and everything in his toolbox, to give us the best outcome possible for our case. He made our day good. I highly recommend the law office of Ryan McPhie!

Ryan took the four dangerous and repetitive felony charges that I faced and got them lowered to one non dangerous and non repetitive charge. I faced eight years in prison and Ryan got it lowered to two ears probation.

Craig Rosenstein, DUI and DWI Attorney on Jun 5, 2014
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Ryan has always had a passion for the criminal justice system. He was unfortunately too bright, diligent, and level headed to continue his work with the County and I am glad to see that he is taking his vast Prosecutorial experience and helping people extricate themselves from the criminal justice system. He treats his clients like family and is diligent to get them out of trouble.

Billie Tarascio, Family Attorney on Jun 16, 2014

I have worked with Ryan on some cases and founded him to be an excellent advocate, relentless litigator and great communicator. He is well respected (feared) by the "other side". He is wonderful in responding to inquiries and developing an action plan for any criminal case in Arizona. I send all my clients who are in Arizona to him!
