Wish I could do more than 5 stars!

I truly cannot say enough good things about Gordon. After working with a previous attorney where we felt like we were paying for little to no progress, the difference was night and day. Gordon stepped in and immediately created momentum in my case. He was strategic, responsive, and genuinely invested... in getting the best outcome possible. He made huge changes — all for the better — and moved things forward quickly and efficiently. For the first time, I felt heard, supported, and confident in the direction of my case. He ultimately brought everything to a close exactly how I had hoped it would. I never expected to have such a positive experience with an attorney, especially during something as stressful as family law proceedings. If you’re looking for someone who is proactive, knowledgeable, and truly cares about results, I highly recommend Gordon. He exceeded every expectation.

Top Notch attorney!

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.

Extremely happy with the outcome.

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.

Exceptional attorney!

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.

Exceptional Advisor and Advocate

Gordon handled our complex modification of custody case very well. Not only did we get a great result, he was judicious with our expenses and was able to help us create the most efficient strategy for our resources. Bend is very limited in good family law attorneys and Gordon is definitely one of t...he best in town. Highly recommend.
