About a year ago, I was looking for a lawyer who would represent me in my case. This case was suggested to only be a few short months, only to find it was going the distance with obstacles. I found Philip C. Hearn, and he took my case head-on. Many other lawyers would have told me that they have done everything they could, then leave me in the dust. Not this lawyer, he pushed with my case until it was completed. If anyone is looking for a lawyer who doesn't quit, this is him. I highly recommend this lawyer, as I believe the price was right, and the job surpassed the expectations. Five stars: I will use again for any reason. Thank you Mr. Hearn.

Called for a issue that I was having regarding an police impound lot holding my car for 3 days and wouldn’t release it. Attorney Hearn went above and beyond and informed the impound lot owner of the law and had my car released within five minutes. If you need a go getter attorney that’s highly knowledgeable of the law with yeas of experience this is your guy.. A+++++

Philip responded to my question very quickly. He also provided me with his cell phone number and offered to assist me at anytime. I have tried to contact other lawyers prior to using Avvo who have asked me to fill out specific forms to only be provided with a response within 3-5 days. I will definitely be using his services from here forward!
