Phillip “Phil” Gordon anchors Frazier Law’s Texas office and is a key member of the firm’s Public Interest & Political Law practice group. Phil litigates and advises at the intersection of constitutional law, elections, and government regulation, representing political committees, advocacy organizations, and regulated entities on election law, lobbying, campaign finance and PAC compliance, lobbying and ethics regulation, FARA, First Amendment and political speech, and tax-exempt political activity.
Before joining Frazier Law, Phil spent nearly a decade at one of the nation’s foremost political law firms in Washington, D.C., where he advised clients who could not afford to get it wrong—litigating redistricting and constitutional cases nationwide, navigating federal regulatory systems, and counseling political committees, trade associations, advocacy organizations, and nonprofits on compliance with election law and lobbying regulations.
Phil’s appellate experience includes authoring or co-authoring party and amici briefs before the United States Supreme Court in cases including Moore v. Harper, Alexander v. South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP, and Gill v. Whitford. He also served as Associate Counsel to the 58th Presidential Inaugural Committee.
Phil is licensed in Texas, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, and is admitted to the bar of the Supreme Court of the United States. He earned his J.D. from Baylor Law School, a Master of Science in Community and Regional Planning from the University of Texas at Austin, and a B.A. in Philosophy from California State University, Los Angeles.
Outside the office, Phil and his wife Jamie prefer to be outdoors—whether on the road with their Airstream or off the grid entirely. Each summer they spend a few weeks outside Rome, where Jamie co-leads an archaeological dig. Back home, they answer to two rescue dogs, Kit and Nugget.
