Consulted Attorney

We were truly blessed to have Phil in our corner. He’s brilliant, patient, experienced with unparalleled knowledge of the law and legal system, works 24/7, and always tells it like it is. A malicious neighbor made false allegations to obtain a one-year 258E Harassment Prevention Order against our then 16-year-old son in the Hampden County Juvenile Court. After several attorneys told us that there was nothing we could do and our son would just have to live with this devastating permanent record, we fortunately found Phil. Against seemingly insurmountable odds, my son’s record was expunged in all of the police, state and federal databases and the court’s paper file was completely destroyed. Currently an 18-year-old college student, my son now enjoys a completely normal life without the concern of lost job prospects and crushed dreams, all thanks to Phil’s hard and priceless work. We shall always be thankful.

Phil Arnel helped me to seal my FBI record which was marred after a mentally-ill ex falsely accused me of a crime. He provided me an initial consult which was direct and pressure-free, truly helping me to understand the relevant legal issues prior to moving to the next step. Once I retained his services Phil worked amazingly quickly, keeping me informed at every step of the process. He was always responsive and available to answer my questions along the way. In the end my record was sealed and I could not have been happier with the process. Phil is hardworking, knowledgeable and honest and I would recommend him in strongest possible terms.

Phillip L. Arnel is the best!! Settled my case with in a year. After being in my first auto accident and unsure of what to do I was referred to by a good friend that knew how well he represented his clients. From the initial meeting and throughout the whole process I was able to focus on my recovery and was updated with legal and financial end. Phillip L. Arnel went above and beyond to insure I received the best settlement.

I had a very traumatic car accident last year. I contacted a close friend who referred me to Philip L. Arnel and I am so grateful she did that. It was the best decision I’ve made hiring Mr. Arnel as my lawyer! He responds so quickly, very knowledgeable, trust worthy, easy to talk to, and thorough. He always informed me through the entire process. He not only won my case but fought for me to get the MOST COMPENSATION!! 5 figures !! I mean wow ! I will only be using Phil from now on!

Attorney Arnel was a pleasure to work with. I was involved in a dispute with my insurance company and Attorney Arnel was a calming influence from our initial conversation. He is knowledgeable and made sure that we had a thorough understanding of the legal process. His expertise led to a favorable outcome, and I would recommend him to anyone seeking an intelligent, professional attorney.

Working with Phil has been a great experience, he has handled two auto accidents for me and right from the very moment I contacted him till we settled the case he was on everything, from the towing of the car, hospital, xrays, MRI's, catscans, physical therapy, etc., he even texted me the day before each appointment to remind me it was coming up! Phil is a very attention to detail attorney, be prepared for him to be on top of every little detail of the case, which he will explain the importance of why it is necessary, he worked tirelessly on my cases to get me compensated for the maximin amount which helped turn a bad situation into a feel good at the end! I would call Phil in a moment!

Phil was able to seal several matters from my past including a recent expungement of a single conviction with remaining charges on record. He was able to have an FBI report updated that no other attorney could help me with. I was amazed at how fast and responsive he was as well as how quickly he was able to get results for me. Every action he needed from me was well document with thorough instructions and he answered every question I could possibly have. I could not be happier with the results he provided me and will most certainly be hiring Phil for any future legal needs.

Phil was extremely professional and knowledgeable. I had spoken to a few other lawyers in the past to try and get this issue resolved, only to be discouraged with their lack of knowledge. The confidence I sensed from Phil during our initial conversation told me I had found the right lawyer. Phil won my case with ease. 100% would recommend.
