Worst lawyer ever

If you want your life to be ruined then hire Phillip! The laziest attorney you’re ever gonna meet in your life never fills out documents fails to show up to court turns everything into a judgment and if you hire him for bankruptcy chances are, he’ll put you in the wrong chapter so you can lose all... your assets he should be disbarred in the state of Washington and everywhere else in the country. This man should never practice law ever again!!!!!

Phil is great!

Phil was my colleague at the Tax LL.M. at University of Washington, then he coached me at my first trial. He is an excellent attorney who cares for his clients. Patient, intelligent, kind and practical!

Knowledgeable and Thorough

Went to Phil to get our first estate plan in place. He really took the time to go over our options and come up with different approaches that took the stress away from the process. I am glad we set up an estate plan and would encourage others to see Phil.
