John Michael Phillips
John Michael Phillips (born February 4, 1975) is an American lawyer, consumer and civil rights advocate and a legal commentator.
Phillips was born in Mobile, Alabama. He received a BA from the University of Alabama in Political Science and Criminal Justice in 1997 and JD from the University of Alabama School of Law in 2000. He moved to Jacksonville, Florida in 2001. He is licensed to practice law in Florida, New York, Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma, Illinois and Washington, DC and the United States Supreme Court.
Phillips started his career as a civil litigation defense attorney, defending companies like Coca-Cola, Hertz, and State Farm from injury claims. After over 8 years with his firm, he worked alongside John Morgan and represented victims of traumatic injuries. In 2011, he founded his own law office.[citation needed]
Phillips stopped George Zimmerman when he was trying to sell his client's copyrighted photograph of prosecutor Angela Corey as a painting. Another notable case includes Gregory Hill v. Ft. Pierce Police Department, where a man was shot by police through his closed garage door. It resulted in a controversial $4 jury verdict.
In 2012, Phillips was hired by Ron Davis and U.S. Congresswoman Lucy McBath after the shooting of Jordan Davis by Michael Dunn.
Phillips was hired in July 2020 to represent Don Lewis’s daughters along with his former assistant Anne McQueen. He filed a lawsuit against Carole Baskin and others in early August seeking to obtain more information about the disappearance of Don Lewis and amended it to assert an action for defamation on behalf of Anne McQueen, which is pending. Phillips and his firm were later contacted and retained by Joe Exotic.
On August 18, 2018, it was announced that Phillips and his firm were representing Omarosa Manigault Newman in both arbitration and litigation arising out of her employment with Donald Trump.
Phillips defeated Trump and his Campaign's efforts to enforce a nondisclosure agreement against Newman, the former White House aide and a star on “The Apprentice” who wrote a tell-all book about serving in his administration. In the decision by the American Arbitration Association dated September 24, 2021, the Arbitrator granted Respondent’s Summary Judgment Motion declaring the Agreement invalid under New York contract law.
