Philip R. Shucklin
Competent, thorough, detailed, personable, and engaging. Phil, from the first meeting together, put me at ease and clearly explained what to expect, what was the entire process, what not to be overly concerned about. Phil not only addressed the legal aspects of my case, but also offered suggest...

Shrewd and insightful!
I was so happy and at-ease to have Phil take my case! It was a messy case of collecting back child support where no legal modifications has been made. He is shrewd, insightful and knew how to negotiate with the obligor--a lawyer he knew and astutely figured out how to deal with. His fees and billi...

Phil made my ugly divorce bearable thanks !!!!!!!
Phil took my case even though it was such short notice he did. He always kept me informed of what our next steps were at what options we had. Also he was always there to listen to my questions and concerns. I would highly suggest using Phil in any of your family court issues!
"I have known Phil a long time and had the privilege of working with him (as opposing counsel) on some very difficult cases. Phil is knowledgeable, creative, and honest. I highly recommend him."
"I endorse this lawyer. Phil is experienced, skilled and pragmatic in his representation. Although he is a zealous advocate, he has a clear head and does not inflame passions and destroy relationships, like some of his colleagues. He is a good man who can make the divorce process bearable, easy to understand and a bit more humane."
"I have known Phil for more than ten years and recommend him for family law and related issues. He combines years of experience with a practical way of looking at your individual case. He cares about people and will make the extra effort to help you. I endorse Phil Shucklin."
"Attorney Phil Shucklin is an experienced and skilled litigator. Additionally, he is also compassionate, kind, and patient which are all requisites in the family law field. Phil zealously advocates for each and every one of his clients. I would highly endorse this attorney!"
"I endorse this lawyer. I have know and worked with Phil for over 12 years. His knowledge of Family Law and the Family law system is second to no one. Phil is very conscious and has excellent comunication skills, which is important in all legal matters but maybe even more so in Family Law cases."
"I have opposed Phil on several matters over the past fifteen years. In every matter, he has been a very effective advocate for his client. His professional courtesy in dealing with matters allows for efficient resolution without unnecessary litigation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Phil brings a wonderful sense of perspective to all his cases--smart, honest, but knowing what the important issues in the case are, and not wasting time or his client's money on issues that don't matter. It is always a pleasure to have Phil as opposing counsel-- he does a great job for his clients!"
"Mr. Shucklin has been my opposing counsel on three divorce cases to date. His integrity is beyond dispute and his word is his bond. He is one of those few whom you can make a verbal agreement with and know it won't change after you hang up the phone. When clients have cases needs that are outside my area of practice or outside the counties to which I limit my practice, I'm comfortable referring them to Mr. Shucklin. I've known his rates to be reasonable and he attends to his clients' needs in a timely manner."
