Attorney Eric W. Phelps

Eric W. Phelps, M.A., J.D., was born and raised in the small Michigan town of Flat Rock, where his conservative values and strong work ethic were forged.

He has been an attorney for more than 20 years and his focus is on family, adoption, fertility, business, civil, estate and probate law. He has handled hundreds of cases involving divorce, division of assets, child custody, parental rights, child support and alimony. He regularly litigates cases in all Michigan trial and appellate courts.
