Our attorneys are first and foremost litigators. We handle cases in many areas of civil litigation, with formal practice groups in the areas of commercial, construction, employment, environmental, insurance, landlord-tenant, auto-UM, non-profit, premises, products, professional errors & omissions, and real estate and real property litigation. We also have comprehensive insurance and non-profit practice groups. Although highly successful at trial, we recognize that early resolution often meets our clients' objectives. One of our strengths is the early and accurate evaluation of all matters. This allows us to work with clients in meeting their business objectives through the most cost effective strategy. 

We are particularly proud of a client base which expects timely reporting, reasonable billing, and consistently excellent results. Representative clients include Walgreen Co., The Gap, Inc., Cincinnati Insurance, Pizza Hut, Inc., KFC, Taco Bell Corp., The Neiman Marcus Group, Inc., American International Group, First Financial Insurance Company, Financial Pacific Insurance Company, Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company, Sears, Williams-Sonoma, Dynacraft Industries, Golden Gate Fields, Penn America Insurance, Liberty Mutual Insurance, Unitrin Insurance, Atlas Insurance, and Global-Indemnity Insurance and Transguard Insurance.  The firm values the attorney-client relationship and provides seminars, research and additional resources to clients without charge.

At Phillips, Spallas & Angstadt, a key ingredient of our firm's success is the diversity of our attorneys. Our philosophy of inclusion is a cornerstone of our firm. We are committed to diversity both within the firm and the profession of law at large.
