About Phil

I grew up around bulldozers. Having a dad as a civil engineer and construction manager meant I always had an appreciation for the industry. I worked as a laborer and foreman for over 5 years while I was in college and law school.
After law school, it was important to me to represent those contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers that I worked with, and I’ve been doing that for 18+ years. I also work with business owners outside of the construction industry to mine opportunities, manage risks, pursue and defend claims, and protect the companies they’ve grown.

Outside the office, I spend just about all my time with my wife and two kids, coaching and playing sports, and traveling together as often as we can. Being originally from Chicago, I’m a big Chicago sports fan, especially the Cubs and Bears, but I root for Cleveland sports too…
