I had a problem, called a few local lawyers, but the only one who took the time to return my call was Philip McCalister. I was very pleased with the information he gave me and will use him again.

It is always nice to work with professionals who care about you. With legal issues, it is even more important. I knew since day one that I would be treated with priority and given direction with my best interest considered. This has been a great experience and I will continue as a client for all legal needs or advice.
