Tailored Legal Solutions

When you need them

Our Vision

At Phaff Legal, we deliver boutique legal solutions for individuals, businesses, and law firms in the form of legal consulting and contracting services personalized to your specific needs.
We work with an on-call service model, providing direct access to expert counsel, dependable support, and meticulous attention to detail in addressing the demands of your particular legal issues.  Working at hourly and per project rates, our goal is to provide businesses with access to individualized support for their legal needs as if we're their in-house counsel.  We similarly provide project-based support to law firms for when busy season approaches, a litigation gets particularly complex, or a second set of eyes and expertise are needed - as if there was an extra associate on the case.  Individuals can benefit from particularized advice in areas such as property and real estate rights, wills and estate planning, and other power-of-attorney needs.
Phaff Legal seamlessly integrates into your company or firm structure, ensuring tailored support without delay.  Contact us today to get started on a project or to schedule a free consultation about your particular need.
