About
Lee B. Phillips is the founding attorney of the Law Offices of Lee B. Phillips, located in Flagstaff, Arizona. The firm is recognized for its comprehensive legal services in the areas of manufacturing, personal injury, and transportation law. Lee Phillips has built a reputation for providing assertive representation to clients facing criminal charges, particularly in relation to drug offenses on major highways like I-40 and I-17. Born on an Air Force base in Fairbanks, Alaska, and raised in rural Northwest Ohio, Lee's journey into law began after his impactful tenure as a union organizer for Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers Union in both Ohio and California. He earned his law degree from The Ohio State University, bringing with him a commitment to advocacy that would shape his career. Lee's initial legal experience in Arizona involved working with the Navajo Indian tribe, where he represented thousands of Navajo individuals in a significant land dispute against the Hopi tribe and the U.S. government. His dedication to serving underrepresented communities led him to establish a nonprofit law office that provided free legal representation to Native Americans, supported by grants from esteemed organizations, including the MacArthur Foundation and the Berkeley Law Foundation. Prior to founding his own practice, Lee served as a deputy public defender in the Coconino County Public Defender's Office, gaining invaluable experience in criminal defense. His expertise extends across various jurisdictions, handling cases not only in Flagstaff (Coconino County) but also in Holbrook (Navajo County), Prescott (Yavapai County), and Kingman (Mohave County), in both state and federal courts. At the Law Offices of Lee B. Phillips, clients benefit from Lee's extensive background and strategic approach to legal challenges, whether they involve manufacturing disputes, personal injury claims, or transportation-related issues.
