Get to know us
North Star Law was founded by Phillip Zagotti, a licensed attorney and CPA with over 20 years of experience helping individuals and businesses navigate complex tax, bankruptcy, and financial challenges. With a unique combination of legal and accounting expertise, Phillip brings a perspective that most attorneys and most CPAs simply can't offer — he understands both the legal strategy and the numbers behind it. North Star Law is built on a straightforward belief: that everyone facing a legal or financial crisis deserves clear guidance, honest answers, and a knowledgeable advocate in their corner. From our offices in Houston's Energy Corridor, we serve clients throughout Texas and, for federal tax matters, nationwide.
Our mission
Our mission at North Star Law is to guide individuals and businesses through their most difficult legal and financial moments with clarity, competence, and respect. We believe that a tax dispute, a financial setback, or the burden of administering a trust should never define someone's future. We exist to help our clients understand their options, protect their rights, and move forward with confidence. Whether you're facing the IRS, considering bankruptcy, managing a trust, or making critical business decisions, we bring the legal knowledge and financial expertise to help you find your way.
Our vision
Our vision is to be the firm that people trust when the stakes are highest. We are building a practice where every client, whether a small business owner facing a tax crisis, a family navigating bankruptcy, or a trustee managing someone else's legacy, receives the same level of care, expertise, and attention that was once reserved for those who could afford the largest firms. We believe that accessible, high-quality legal and financial guidance isn't a luxury. It's a necessity. North Star Law exists to make that a reality.
