About
Born in Manhattan and raised on Long Island, I enlisted in the United States Army shortly after graduating high school. As a United States Army Military Policeman I provided physical security on a base that housed nuclear weapons, law enforcement for a military community in Germany, and combat operations in Operations Desert Shield, Desert Storm, and Desert Spear. I was honorably discharged in 1993 and subsequently earned my B.S. in Business Administration from The University of Tampa, and my Law Degree from Stetson University College of Law. My law practice specializes in divorce, paternity, and other family law related matters.

There is no one, absolutely no one, I would want to have my back other than Paul Phipps. He is razor sharp, misses nothing and is always one step ahead of where you "should" be in your best interest, all the time. He has your back, believe me. Above all, he is a good man, with a good heart and he can read people very very well. He's a great dad (takes one to know one) and for all you dad's out there, finding a great dad to advocate for you is a must. Time with your kids is the only battle worth putting everything on the line for and I'm telling you all, there isn't anyone I would want to be in the same foxhole with back to back, for the greatest battle of your life, than Paul. With Paul's guidance along the way, we came prepared to win and while you never know any outcome in court, we won big. I just couldn't see another attorney pulling off what he was able to do and the way he did it. He gave me enough insight to appreciate how much of what he does is truly art. He relates to you, understands you, validates you and doesn't waste a minute of your time but will make himself available for all the time you need. For my situation, the other side was unwilling to give an inch, not an inch all year long...that is until Paul worked his magic, which makes the outcome all that more impressive, and he did it when it mattered most. He read the other side so well and we ended up with last second agreement that checked all the boxes for me instead of leaving it in the hands of the judge. He was also very generous with me with his time and didn't charge me for many hours that he could have easily done, and if he did it still would've been entirely reasonable and worth it. If he ever raises his rate, Paul would always be worth every penny and then some. If you're ever going up against a well-known, tough, local attorney with an impeccable reputation and unbelievable track record...put him up against Paul. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
Paul has helped me with multiple cases (3 total) dating back to 2013. I love how honest he is about the process and setting realistic expectations on the end result. He is very understanding and empathetic to difficult situations and open to discussing different options you may have in a case. Every case has ended in the desired outcome and because of Paul my daughter and I are safe and not stressing about custody and family law issues. I highly recommend him for any case involving children, whether custody, relocation, or temporary/emergency orders.
Going through a divorce is not something that anyone wants or expects to go through in their lifetime. But unfortunately it a harsh reality for many including myself. Paul was nothing short of excellent throughout the process of my divorce. He was an open sounding board, resource and knowledge base. He always took the time to listen before formulating responses to my questions, which throughout the process there were many. He truly cares about his clients and it shows in his work. He is a fierce advocate for his clients and will push to get the most favorable outcome. He was able to successfully facilitate a settlement between my ex and I despite her and her counsel not being easy or responsive. Bottom line, I can't recommend Paul enough for anyone going through the divorce process.
Paul happily help me develop a power of attorney and health care directive for my father who is now living with me since the passing of his wife. He was prompt, professional and couldn't have done it without him. He come highly recommended and I will definitely use him again in the future.
Paul made the whole process easy and got me everything I asked for. The price was more than reasonable and he listened to all my concerns and showed compassion.
Mr Phipps was phenomenal with my divorce case. He was there every step of the way, he is always on point when it comes to reaching out and getting things done. I was scared about the situation but after talking to him, I felt much better because he took ownership of my case and treated it like his. I just want to thank you for everything.
Mr. Phipps provided exactly what I needed, I wasn’t so sure about transitioning to a new lawyer but I am glad I did! Mr. Phipps was very responsive answering all of my questions in a timely manner. His attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend Mr. Phipps.
When experiencing a trying time in your life, to where you have to contact an attorney, it’s stressful. Paul Phipps made things so easy for me. He was kind, patient, and understanding. He went above and beyond to help me resolve my issue. I appreciate him and refer people to him as much as I can. He really cares.
Paul, is the best attorney here in Tampa, Florida. He not only took my case and traveled out the county to represent me but his diligence, knowledge and expertise were far beyond my expectations. He is the most kindest, warm hearted, understanding attorney who will fight for you until the end. He is not fearful of challenges and will face every opportunity to help you win. I still have full custody of my child when my ex husband was attempting to fight for 50/50. Paul thank you for the bottom of my heart ! Please book this attorney if you’re in need! You will not regret it! He fought my case through a pandemic!
Paul represented me during my divorce from my husband. In the beginning my ex-husband did not want to cooperate with basic child care issues and the divorce process in general. Paul was able to help me work through those issues and get them resolved. Paul is very knowledgeable with aspects such as retirements, pensions and child timesharing issues. Paul was wonderful with communicating with me, as well as, my ex-husband's attorney. We were able to come to an amicable mediated agreement and the divorce only took 3 months from start to finish. I highly recommend him!
