TESTIMONIALS
I am in the military and have Top Security Clearance in Washington DC. I was arrested in Dallas and falsely charged with a DWI. Had I been convicted of the DWI, I would have lost my clearance and my job. Phillip convinced the Jury to find me not guilty and saved my career.
TESTIMONIALS
I was involved in a road rage incident in which the other guy was the aggressor and pulled a gun on me. He however called the police 1st and I was arrested and charged with Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. Phillip worked with the District Attorney’s office to have the case sorted out and have my case dismissed. The actual aggressor was then charged with the offense.
TESTIMONIALS
I was a former executive at a large national health care institution based in Dallas. Myself and several others were fired and accused of corporate fraud and embezzlement.
