We worked with Paul Kellogg to update estate planning documents. He was easy to contact, prompt to reply and made the process completely clear and easy to understand. The documents were completed and filed efficiently.

I have been working with John Phillips and Paul Kellogg for a few years now and any time I have a need or issue, they are on it! I own a business and they are extremely helpful, professional but also personable. They never make me feel I'm bothering them with my questions and reply quickly. They helped with a business legal matter and took the burden off me - what a relief. I trust them, and highly recommend them to anyone. They offer such a variety of legal services in my opinion, they are a "one stop shop." Even though we are all staying home, Paul helped me with a situation via email and responded right away. I can count on them any time.

On the first consultation with John Phillips, he took the time to not only try to understand the problem; but to then discuss possible options to consider that would best resolve that problem. John showed a great depth of knowledge, as well as someone who truly cared for you as an individual. I can certainly understand why John (and his law firm) are thought of so highly, and equally as important, in my opinion, as a person.

To begin with, we’ve seen Paul Kellogg carry out his services with a wonderful level of professionalism. In addition, we really appreciate how well he answered all our questions and have provided his service in a very reasonable time frame. Also, he has always been a very nice person to deal with and that has been the case with other members of the firm when they have dealt with us. Without any reservation, we’ve been very pleased with Paul and Phillips Law Firm, Inc.

John excelled and helped to secure settlement after a three year dispute with a unethical contractor. We can finally put this nightmare behind us! We will be forever grateful and thankful!

Paul Kellogg at the Phillips Law Firm was wonderful to work with when I was preparing to go into contract on a new construction home. He was very knowledgeable, highly responsive, offered great advice, and reviewed the documents on a quick turnaround -- and did so for a reasonable fee. I will go back to Paul and the team for future real estate and other legal needs, and I feel confident recommending them to others.

This law firm is run by a very nice guy who really knows his stuff. I have saved his information in case I have any other legal issues in the future.

I can't recommend Mr. Phillips enough! He and his office staff are kind, professional, and go above and beyond to help people. Unlike other law offices I have called, who would not give me advice because they could not help me, Mr. Phillips took the extra time from his day researching information and guiding me in the right direction on an out of state case. 5 stars all around!

Mr. Phillips and his team are excellent to work with. I was very fortunate to find this group of confident, experience attorneys who have the client's best interest in mind. They openly discuss options, facts, law and research information to provide the client the best outcomes. This experience for me was priceless as gave me the confidence and knowledge to approach the home buyers with information that was accurate, current and appropriate. I would highly recommend these attorneys. Thank you.

To: J.H.Phillip’s The mantle of your profession may be worn by all who pass the bar but not so the crown. Your communication of empathy and sense of immediacy brought me great comfort. Thank you for the extension of the courtesy and, more so, for the connection.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
