Meet Phillip North
The Guy Keeping the Office on Track
A Southern Illinois native, Phillip North grew up in Carterville and is a proud graduate of Southern Illinois University Carbondale, where he recently earned his MBA with a focus in analytics and finance.
As the firm’s Office Manager and Paralegal, Phillip brings a sharp analytical mind to the details that can shape a case. His background in analytics and finance helps him organize complex financial information, spot what needs a closer look, and help clients understand the records and numbers involved in their matter. He works alongside Rebecca to keep that information clear, accurate, and ready when it matters.
When he’s not keeping the office running, Phillip would much rather be outside. He’s an ultra trail runner who enjoys hiking, camping, and apparently running distances most of us wouldn’t willingly drive.
From financial details to the daily work of the office, Phillip brings focus and precision to both.
Meet Tehya Thompson
The Friendly Face That Greets You First
Tehya Thompson is the firm’s Legal Assistant and often the first person you’ll meet when you walk through our doors. A graduate of Mt. Vernon Township High School, Tehya welcomes clients with a bright smile, a kind heart, and the knowledge to help get them pointed in the right direction.
Simply put, Tehya is one of those genuinely kind people who makes everyone feel welcome—and that’s especially important when you’re walking into a law office during what may be a difficult time.
Outside the office, Tehya is a proud pet mom to a Chihuahua, a cat, and a frog, proving that apparently there really is a perfect pet combination for everyone.
A warm welcome, a helpful hand, and a smile you can count on—that’s Tehya.
Have a question for our office? Tehya and Phillip will help make sure it gets to the right place.
