Zioni, Pillersdorf, Phillip Advocates

Why Us
Our firm is committed to the highest and stringent standards of the legal profession. We have a unique working method that aims to provide excellent, creative, and in-depth legal representation. After a thorough and rigorous study of the legal issues, a “brainstorming” session is held, followed by a strategy for handling the client’s legal issues. The firm’s partners lead and handle all the cases and are involved in every aspect of the case, both at the macro and micro levels.
