Extremely Helpful

Phil was very professional when I contacted him about my case. I had asked him what the correct course of action I should take, and he gave me a straight answer without beating around the bush. I was very grateful for his honesty and helpfullness. I would definitely recommend using Philip Trenchak to... anyone who has questions regarding their court case.

The Best in Las Vegas

Phil took the time to sit down and speak with me numerous times before any decisions were made regarding my case. He explained every detail and made sure I understood exactly what to expect. When it was time to go into court he firmly explained my position and did everything possible to get the outco...me we desired. The amount of loyalty and devotion he has shown to me and other clients I've spoken with is unprecedented. I recommend Phil Trenchak for any legal needs you have.

Went to Bat for Me and Won!

I was unlawfully terminated and denied unemployment by my employer. My boss approved me for a leave of absence and then fired me when business got slow. He said it was my fault because I took the leave HE APPROVED! I hired Phil on a referral from a friend who said he was really good to her and got... good results. I am so glad I did because Phil got me just about everything I wanted and needed. I'm very happy with Phil and the service he provided. Thanks Phil! PS: Don't listen to the previous negative reviews. I'm not sure what happened in his or her case (and it does seem like its the same person posting multiple reviews) but Phil has always been responsive, responsible, and honest with me.

I would recommend Phil Trenchak

I had originally retained Phil for an issue my son was having. Phil was very knowledgeable in our situation and was able to take care of things when he received the paper work he needed from us. My ex-wife also retained him for some issue she was having and was also given the same professional servic...e needed to resolve the matter. He is very prompt about answering emails and phone calls. I have a matter that very recently came up that requires the need for a lawyer. Phil was not able to help me but referred me to a friend immediately upon contacting him. I don' know whom the 2 bad reviews were referring to? My guess it was a different Phil there complaining about.

The facts tell the story

After three very long years of having to deal with a former employer and end less meetings , I was faced with no choice but to go to trial. Preparing for trial is a nerve racking experience and is not pleasant . When the first day of trial started all my worries went away . I told the facts and Phil ...did not pull any crazy attorney antics. He was respectful of both parties during testimony. In the end the facts won and Phil's tenacity not to give up. He never once lost his cool unlike the opposing attorney and managed to help me keep my head up . Having to go through something like this is stressful enough. Having the right people on your side makes it less stressful.
