| Description | George Phillips concentrates his practice in the areas of corporate and business law, communications law, labor and employment law, and commercial and business litigation. He has extensive experience in negotiating and facilitating significant business acquisitions and complicated commercial transactions and agreements, including international contract negotiations. Practicing in the firm’s Sumner County office, he provides business and legal advice to a number of growing Sumner County businesses and companies who consider locating to Middle Tennessee. George also serves as the general counsel for several companies that do not have an in-house counsel. He originally practiced law as an associate at Baker, Worthington, Crossley, Stansberry & Woolf in Nashville where he handled corporate and government defense litigation. He attributes his interest in law to his oldest brother, Johnny, who practices in Gallatin. George explains, When I was in high school I helped him on a number of cases, his commitment to ensuring that folks got a fair shake showed me the ability of attorneys to help people in a very direct way and made me want to be a lawyer. Experience George has served as the utility infielder for legal issues for a national pet supply company, regional mortgage company, solar equipment manufacturer, and a remediation company. He currently serves as the interim general counsel for a division of an international consumer products company. He manages their contracts, compliance issues, regulatory issues, liability claims, and litigation matters. He has worked in the government sector where he served as counselor to the Assistant Attorney General, Civil Division, in the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. from 1993 through 1997. George was the chief of staff to the Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Division that managed complex national civil litigation. He also supervised the Office of Consumer Litigation, who represented the Food and Drug Administration, Federal Trade Commission, and Consumer Product Safety Commission. George successfully defended the FDA’s regulation of cigarettes in oral argument in the United States District Court in Greensboro, N.C. Although the FDA ultimately lost in the U.S. Supreme Court, George counts this case as one of his proudest moments of his legal career. He says, The attention this case brought forced many of the tobacco companies to voluntarily adopt many of the regulations that were being considered by the FDA to discourage young people from starting to smoke and later was passed into law. He also worked to develop a compliance program for a major defense contractor in response to the FBI’s I11-Wind investigation, which helped the company avoid a criminal prosecution.
