Outstanding Attorney for a Difficult Divorse With Child Custody
My 22 year old daughter and 24 year old son were only 1 and 3 when I was divorced. The advice and awards I received enabled me to provide the best possible environment for the children. I am fortunate to have had the right person representing me.
"Gerry exemplifies the word Superb . He is a vigorous advocate who achieves outstanding results for his clients . He is incredibly talented , and has been recognized for his achievements numerous times by his peers ."
"Gerry Phillips is universally recognized by the bench and bar as among the very best family lawyers in Southern Califonia."
"It is my honor to endorse Gerry Phillips. Gerry is the consumate trial attorney and any client who has Gerry in his/her corner has an advocate of the highest ethics, trial skills and knowledge of the law. Gerry is an impressive force in the courtroom and has the total respect of the Family Law Bench and Bar in Orange County, CA."
