About Dennis C
Dennis C Phillips earned his B.A. from Armstrong Atlantic State University in 2005 and completed his J.D. at Florida Coastal School of Law in 2009. He finished law school as the legal landscape in Florida was shifting and began building his practice in the years that followed. Those academic years shaped the habits he still uses: careful preparation, a steady attention to scheduling and deadlines, and an emphasis on clear written work.
Phillips moved into private practice after law school. He joined Worsham Corsi Dobur & Berss, a firm where he has worked on a variety of matters alongside more senior lawyers and colleagues. His time at the firm has been marked by a steady accumulation of courtroom and office experience. Colleagues describe him as methodical in case preparation and direct in client meetings.
In the office, Phillips balances client counseling with document work. He drafts pleadings and agreements, prepares briefs, and handles the day-to-day correspondence that keeps cases moving. In court, he has taken part in hearings and status conferences, presenting arguments and questioning witnesses when the situation calls for it. He approaches each assignment with practical problem-solving rather than grand theory.
Clients see him as a lawyer who pays attention to the details that matter: deadlines, evidentiary development and the procedural posture of a case. He spends time laying out options and likely outcomes, then works through the steps needed to pursue a chosen course. That often means negotiating to resolve disputes, though he does not hesitate to try contested matters when settlement is not available.
Outside of courtroom and office obligations, Phillips has remained engaged with continuing legal education and the routine professional work that comes with practice. He has kept current on developments affecting everyday litigation and transactional tasks. He is known among peers for clear written work and steady case management.
He currently practices at Worsham Corsi Dobur & Berss, handling a range of matters for the firm’s clients.
