Gordon Phillips was recommended to me by a colleague of mine to handle my divorce. From day one of this process Gordon conducted himself in a very detailed and professional manner. My circumstances were a little sticky, but Gordon knew the laws and what was fair. Even though we never had to go to cou...rt, Gordon fought for me and my future. If you need an attorney, I highly recommend Mr. Phillips. He will help you understand your situation, inform you about the laws, but explain them to you with patience and in a simplified manner, as well as give you great advice. I am very grateful that I had Gordon on my side.

I entered into an unexpected divorce in the spring and was referred to Gordon Phillips to use. Right after my first phone consultation, I knew I was in amazing hands. I cannot say enough about the time that Mr. Phillips took to go over everything with me from start to finish. He was thorough, poli...te, accurate, detailed but most of all, he talked with me like a friend and explained to me anything that I didn't understand and asked me great questions. He never made me feel rushed or inept when discussing legal terms, and this made our working relationship super smooth and any followup timely and complete. I honestly never thought this would go so smooth or so fast. I highly recommend Mr. Phillips if you want an attorney that helps you understand your situation, gives you great advice, simplifies things that you may have questions on and doesn't nickle and dime you. It was a pleasure working with him and his staff.

Mr. Phillips did an excellent job with my divorce. Mr. Phillips was very honest and upfront with me in regards to what I needed to plan for in regards to my divorce. He did not over promise or tell me what he thought I wanted to hear, he was very straight forward. His communication with me was great.... Any questions or concerns I had he got right back to me that same day. During court he was straight forward with the facts and honest, I think the judge saw this and respected that. After court / judges decision was made Mr. Phillips helped me get set up with who I needed to contact and get me on the path to get the little stuff done after court. Mr. Phillips was also very good with his time, he did not overcharge or waste time to try and get more money out of me. During phone calls, emails, or meetings he made sure that we were quick and did not drag it out to charge me more. I would highly recommend Mr. Phillips to anyone that is going through a divorce. I have already passed his card out to other people that have asked about my divorce and are looking for a good lawyer. I can't thank him enough for making this painful process so easy.

I retained Gordon Phillips after my complicated out-of-state divorce and custody battle proved too challenging for several others. He came highly recommend by a top Portland family law attorney. Over the next two years I was not disappointed. Mr. Phillips' extensive knowledge of the law allowed him t...o deliver better results than I thought possible. He is passionate about helping his clients. He listened to my opinions throughout the process and became a trusted adviser. Mr. Phillips is also responsive to client communications, which is rare in my experience. I feel very fortunate to have found him. I would strongly recommend Gordon to anyone caught up in a high conflict or complicated case where an extraordinary attorney is needed.

I needed to use Gordon's services after I filed for a divorce last year. From our first consultation, I knew I would retain his services for representation. Here is why: In that hour, I gained more information than I would have dreamed possible. My best guess is many attorneys would have used sev...eral hours to provide me with the same amount of information. After hearing of my situation, he guided me to use a mediator to help deal with a large portion of our case. In the end, this saved me a large sum of money. Whenever I was in need of guidance from Gordon, he responded to my outreach very promptly and professionally. Over the course of our case, I needed his expertise every bit as much as the services of the mediator. Gordon was very careful to not over utilize his services, he instead provided me with all of my options in addition to what he could offer. If you decide to retain his services, you can be rest assured that Gordon knows this area of the law extremely well. He does not play "dirty," but will also quickly assert himself on his client's behalf and not be intimidated by the other party's representation. Gordon was originally referred to me by a good friend (who happens to be a local attorney) who knows of Gordon's positive reputation. I feel extremely lucky to have had his representation during what was easily the most difficult time in my life. It would have been more difficult if I hadn't had someone who was comfortable standing strong on my behalf, knew the law so well and was willing to work alongside the mediator to help keep our process as calm as possible.
