Practice Areas: Worker's Compensation

Phil focuses 100% of his practice on the representation of injured workers in all aspects of the Ohio Workers' Compensation system. His practice includes administrative hearings as well as the representation of clients in the Courts of Common Pleas throughout the state of Ohio. To date, Phil has participated in thousands of administrative hearings. He prides himself on working hard to find the best resolution of each workers' compensation claim for his clients.


Phil likes to think that the practice of Workers’ Compensation chose him rather than the other way around. He always knew that he had a desire to help individual people rather than corporations or entities. Workers’ Compensation allows him to assist people experiencing one of the worst times of their lives and help them obtain the benefits they deserve.


Phil is a proud graduate of the The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law. While attending law school, he was involved in the Student Bar Association, Dispute Resolution program, and also participated in the Mock Trial program and Negotiations Competition, earning honors and a trip to the regional competition in Canada. Prior to that, he attended The Ohio State University for undergraduate.


The one thing he wishes that every client knew was that no two Workers’ Compensation cases are the same. Sometimes a single client with multiple claims will have a resoundingly different experience from one claim to the next. There are so many variables and factors involved…that’s why he enjoys the opportunity to help his clients along their individual journey.


Phil is a member of the Ohio State Bar Association. He is a runner turned jogger and is always attempting, rather unsuccessfully, to learn how to golf as well. With the remainder of his free time, he enjoys cheering on the Reds, Bengals and Buckeyes, as well as traveling.
