Robert Phillips and the personnel where he practices were nothing but professional, courteous, thorough and a pleasure to work with. For my auto collision, I was referred to them by friends and was never disappointed. They have even maintained contact with my family to this date, several years later. I was pleased with their work, their efficiency, as well as the outcome.

Mr. Phillips handled my personal injury case. When I contacted him, he was very helpful in explaining how the process would work and both he and his staff were extremely helpful in answering questions that I would have. He and his staff frequently kept me updated during the process and worked hard to get me the best results.

Mr.Phillips represented our teenage daughter in a medical malpractice case that was settled in 2011. Robert went above and beyond for us in a very difficult time. He came to our home and was completely honest with us, he explained everything along the way and kept us in the loop over time. Mr.Phillips treated our family with respect and did an incredible job for our daughter. He is a confident attorney with a great deal of experience and knowledge.Not only did Mr.Phillips help get our daughter the monetary compensation she would need to take care of herself for her lifetime, he also helped guide her in the right direction to set herself up for success. Mr. Phillips is a man of great integrity and will not let you down. Without hesitation, our family will always recommend him to anyone in need of his services. We are truly appreciative. Highly recommend! Sincerely, The Gross Family of Des Plaines, I

It has been almost 20 years since we contacted his law firm concerning a medical malpractice case. At the time his partner had him sit down and listen to us. St the beginning he was unsure he was unsure of us. A common reaction for our family. Once we explained what we had been through he did not hesitate to take action. He handled a custody hearing for us which was out of their depth. This was necessary because of the way things had started. Once that was done we moved on to the real case. It took over 5 years to get through it but Robert Phillips and Associates has always handled everything professionally and kept us up to date on what was happening. We were sent to specialists for consultation and care. Their offices took care of everything. Thanks to Robert Phillips and Associates our child will be taken care of for the rest their life. The firm was always helpful and professional during our time dealing with them. Mr. Phillips took a personal interest in our case and made himself available whenever we needed to talk to him. Their network of doctors and professionals was very helpful in getting us through our case. If you are in need of assistance they will handle your family with care and professionalism. They consistently work to get you the best outcome in a bad situation. My family will always be grateful to Robert Phillips And his team for being their when our family was in the most need.

Rob Phillips did an outstanding job for us. He is a very thoughtful and tenacious lawyer. He really considers his clients needs and is compassionate about helping his clients. He challenges the opposing counsel with his arguments and responses. He does not tolerate or enable any behavior or supposition that would not be in the best interest of his clients. He is respectful and courteaus to the courts and judges. His responds in a timely manner to everyone involved in the case. He welcomes a challenge and will not back down from any fight that is necessary. He does his homework and was always prepared. Through himself and his staff he found aspects to the case which were of great benefit to the outcome. Not only some facts of the case we were not aware of but witnesses that we were not aware of either. The many depositions done were completed extremely well. His cross examinations revealed aspects to the case that were in our best interests. Once again, his fact finding missions were superb. This helped with all aspects of the case. He had also explained to us the length the case was going to take and he was accurate with the time frame. He did his best to minimize costs without compromising the integrity of the case. Our son could not have had a better advocate than even his mother and myself. His staff is intelligent, responsive and caring. Whoever is reading this review would be foolish not to enlist the services and the commitment to excellence you would receive from Rob Phillips and his staff. We could go on and on but at this point you can understand the wonderful job that he did for us. Thanks Rob, you rock !!!

After several intense discussions and successfully settling my personal injury case, the judge said to me, “My dear, you have one great lawyer.” Robert Phillips leveraged every possible resource to get my case the best outcome. I was in on every critical step, was apprised of all expenses, and was thoroughly prepared for my deposition and arbitration meeting. Mr. Phillips is a very dynamic speaker and excelled at garnering the courts sympathy and compassion toward me. I am very grateful and I know this much – I only ever want Robert Phillips on MY side.

Robert Phillips represented me for a personal injury lawsuit in 2010. Rob explained many of the legal nuances and the procedures so that I could understand the road needed to be traveled through the court system of Cook County. Rob kept me informed of every action taken during the legal proceedings and advised me of the next step of the procedure. I was satisfied with the outcome of my case. It was helpful that I myself understood that the legal system can and does move slowly at times. Rob did an excellent job and I would use his services again if needed.

This was my first legal experience and I was very suspicious of everything but I found Mr. Phillips and associates (particularly his paralegal, she's the best!) to be extremely pleasant, prompt, and really made an extremely stressful time as painless as possible.

Robert Phillips became our lawyer for my daughter's dog bite to her face, which happened at the house of a family friend. He was extremely adept at charting the options for us and working with the insurance company to get fair compensation, which greatly exceeded our family's expectations, and was well over 10 times the original offer. Our settlement was in the very top ranking for this type of injury. The great thing about Robert is that he is extraordinarily aggressive and proactive regarding all the legal activities, but very importantly to us, we all felt comfortable with him. Some Personal Injury lawyers are kind of gross, but Robert is a really decent and fair guy, always outlining a course of action that made sense. His experts are all professional (rather than professional experts who don't come off as well in court) and his photographer was really gentle with my young child, quickly gaining trust and alleviating the embarrassment of the facial scar. Robert pointed out the options at each step in the way - and had good judgment in how hard to push and when to be patient. I have complete confidence in his abilities and can recommend him without hesitation.
