Erin Phillips

Erin Phillips, a fifth-generation Floridian from Winter Haven, Florida, was drawn to the Plateau by both her love for the area and her husband, Brad Phillips, a longtime resident and arborist. After years as a civil trial attorney based in St. Petersburg, Erin relocated to the mountains in 2012, leaving behind a high-powered career and a closet full of heels for work boots and a more hands-on lifestyle. Since moving, she and Brad have married, started a family, and embraced the unique pace and experiences of mountain life.

Erin now owns Plateau Law, a general practice law firm in Cashiers and Highlands, having previously served as a County Magistrate Judge in Macon County and practiced at a real estate-centered firm in Cashiers. An advocate for the Boys & Girls Club of the Plateau, Erin has seen the impact firsthand, as her daughter, Madelynne, enjoys both the after-school and summer programs.
