When Philip began his career as an attorney, he handled a number of insurance receivership cases stemming from the state's financial and oil industry downturn. He also began handling workers' compensation claims as well as personal injury cases. Since then, however, his practice has moved away from workers' compensation and now is overwhelmingly focused on social security disability cases.

As a social security disability attorney, Philip has built a reputation for excellence in his field. "I'm known for being prepared - knowing the file backwards and forwards, and knowing my client's medical history top to bottom," he says. "This is extremely important in dealing with social security cases as there is an intricate relationship between the medical documentation and the ability to obtain an award of disability."
