Phillip handled my criminal case for DUI. This isn’t the law he most often practices but he did everything to educate himself. He was always honest, upfront and nonjudgmental. He believed in me, he was genuine and finally we won. NOT GUILTY! But in case you find yourself in my shoes uneducated on any sort of criminal or legal process, the following is a little more detailed.
To begin, I called him just a half hour after being released from jail. My job involves driving so you can imagine the distress I was in about my license… Within the hour he was able to gather all the documents necessary as well as instruction for my completion of them in order to begin the hardship process and keep my right to drive for work.
My case went eight months before being set for trial. During the eight months Phillip was
always a text message or phone call away. He never went more than an hour without
responding, which in this situation was extremely comforting because I had no priors and was extremely unfamiliar with this process. No matter how many questions I had or how many times he had to repeat himself, he always did so in a respectful and informative manner.
Finally, looking back now when it came to trial he was very strategic and smart about how and when to explain things to me. While being very honest, he simultaneously put me at ease and gave me hope. I knew he believed and wanted the NOT GUILTY just as badly as I needed it. I never shared this with him, but in those eight months I spoke with many lawyers over the phone about my case and possible consultation. I was always unsure of whether I had made the
right decision going to a lawyer that didn’t specialize in DUI like everyone strongly suggests. But not one of them were as authentic as Phillip truly is, which is why I never met with any of them. I would argue that authenticity and trust are perhaps the most important characteristics anyone should want in a lawyer. Phillip changed my life. I would have been fired and all of the
money I have invested in school would have been nothing more but a debt waiting to be collected. I highly recommend
him for representation.

I don't know how we can thank Phillip Ortiz for everything he did for my family and I after the death of my Mother. He helped us navigate the settling of her estate and his ability to explain the process so well put us all at ease. Every challenge and issue that popped up along the way he met head on and resolved. He always treated us with respect and responded quickly to all our questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Mr. Ortiz and wish him the best in his career.

Philip and his firm went above and beyond what seems to be the standards for most law offices in "todays" world. The Firm Law groups knowledge and insight, attention to detail, accessibility and communication earn these guys a very positive 5 star review and more importantly one very happy client whom actually had a positive experience when dealing with legal matters. I would highly recommend these guys!

I contacted Mr. Ortiz to handle a withheld security deposit matter. He was extremely informative and made me feel very confident with my case. He was quick to get the defendant served and case settled despite the busy Holiday Season and made sure to keep me informed every step of the way. I am very satisfied with his services and will certainly use him again if needed and will not hesitate to pass along as a referall.
Thanks again and again!!!

I have had the opportunity and pleasure of working with Mr. Ortiz on a number of pre-suit and post-suit matters. Mr. Ortiz is extremely effective in both respects. He truly understands how to evaluate a case and provide the client with a truthful assessment of their case. Such is an invaluable tool in this profession. Moreover, Mr. Ortiz's courtroom experience and demeanor should put any client at ease if they must proceed with litigation.

Estoy muy contenta de la manera que Phillip me represento en la compra de mi restaurante “Mara’s Fish House.” Phillip fue muy profesional y rápido en el tan poco tiempo que se nos presentó la compra del restaurante, ya que el se especializa en esta rama de leyes. Siempre fue muy atento y nos respondía las llamadas y los correos electrónicos rápidamente. Al final todos quedamos muy contentos con su representación. No cabe duda que seguiré usando sus servicios y lo recomiendo por todo lo alto.

Phillip helped us with a closing and was very professional. He made himself available whenever we needed his assistance, and when we were in a time crunch he made us feel like his top priority.

I engaged Phillip’s services to handle my foreclosure defense and he WON! It was no surprise Phillip won, due to his full engagement, prepardness, and knowledge of my specific situation and the foreclosure process. There was never a dumb question. Phillip was fully accesable and always took as much time needed to explain the complicated legalese that had to be navigated.
Phillip is a true professional who I would recommend to anyone.

My family and I are very fortunate that we met Mr. Ortiz when we did. I was both in the process of purchasing a new home and dealing with some criminal legal issues with a family member. I was surprised to learn that not only did Mr. Ortiz handle both areas of law, but that he was extremely knowledgeable and proficient in both areas. His legal advice was directly on point, he helped us resolve both issues very favorably, and he was available every single time we had a question or concern. I will certainly retain Mr. Ortiz again in the future, and I would recommend him to any and all friends or family members looking for legal counsel.

Hello Everyone,
As clients and consumers, we tend to only review when its from a negative aspect but I wanted to take a moment to praise this lawyer who did an outstanding job with my case. He was never "too busy" to answer my 21 questions and was always polite and professional. He always kept me up to date on all my case info, even if I didnt request it. He was also very positive and reasurring when I would get stressed. I've already referred him to two people and they are very pleased as well. I highly recommend him. He's dedicated, hard working, polite, knowledgeable and above all, a great lawyer. Thanks again Phillip!

Philip had been working on our case for a number of years and never gave up. He kept us in the loop for start to finish and worked as hard as anyone could have wanted from a lawyer.
