BEST ATTORNEYS IN TOWN!

The entire staff is very welcoming and they make you feel very comfortable from the start. John Phillips was our attorney for my personal injury case and he was amazing. Very kind and funny, but also straight forward and I really felt like he had my back. I couldn't have asked for more! I would recom...mend Phillips and Pelly to anyone in a heartbeat.

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.
