BEST OF THE BEST

Atty. Bill Mayer is truly one of the best attorneys to have by your side and not the one to be against. I used Atty. Mayer's services just before the trial and I am truly amazed by how he and his colleague, Atty. Jill Dawiczyk handled my case. Not only did Atty. Mayer accept me as client just a few... weeks before the trial (I am saying this because there are many attorneys who don't accept new clients just weeks before trial) he put me at ease assuring that he and his office will take care of the case and be prepared for the trial and they sure did familiarize themselves with all events regarding the case. I was dealing with a very bitter ex and of-course there was child custody dispute. The whole process had been dragged for couple of years and I was having a tough time and hoping to not drag this case further. A truly experienced person who has been dealing with Family Law for many decades now. He is very patient and listened to all the events that happened with my case. He is very knowledgeable and had my best interests at the forefront. I cannot thank him and his team enough for their help in my divorce and child custody matter which eventually turned out in my favor. Always listen to his advice as well as recommendations because he has a pretty good understanding on how things would likely go and has a realistic and practical approach. He is a truly professional and always sets the correct expectations with proper reasoning. Even if he is busy, I have always received a response from his colleague (Atty. Dawiczyk) or paralegal (Betty White) in a prompt timely manner. I would highly recommend attorney Atty. Bill Mayer. I am glad you represented me and stood by me during this difficult process. THANK YOU.

Faced with an unanticipated divorce, requiring the liquidation of two successful businesses was a substantial hit to me in my mid seventies. My first attorney was dismissed after the first Court Hearing. Finally reaching Bill Mayer , on the recommendation of another well respected attorney, was a... revelation. Having done business in five states , over more than fifty years, one develops a sense of knowing when you have reached the right person. His clarity, directness, and sheer competence can make you smile in the middle of a shipwreck. All of the outrageous actions, motions and threats were countered with reason and law. We did very well.

Review of William Mayer

Bill Mayer and his team are an amazing group. Having been through a difficult divorce many years prior it was unnerving to have to go back to court to argue things that just were not true. Bill kept things on task and in perspective. He conducted himself in a very caring, and professional manner an...d brought about a positive outcome. During the process, I always felt that he had the best interest of myself and my children at hand. When we went to court it was apparent how well respected Bill Mayer is which he definitely deserves. I am so very pleased that I was referred to Bill Mayer and his team and would highly recommend him/them to anyone I know who may be experiencing a situation like mine.

I hired attorney Mayer for my complicated divorce , and was very satisfied with the results. Bill is very compassionate, professional and trustworthy. He returns emails immediately. His office staff is very organized and thorough. I would recommend Bill to anyone looking for an efficient and profess...ional divorce lawyer.

Still Fighting

At the end of the last century my divorce began in Dedham Court . Midway through my divorce proceedings my attorney acquired an illness and needed to retire . He asked attorney Mayer to take over the case . Of course my nerves were frazzled with the changes but smoothly, attorney Mayer finished my... divorce case in two years . Now 20 years later into this century Attorney Mayer continues fighting for me in the Canton divorce courts .He has guided me through three children ending school; both high school and college, and a marriage of more than 20 years with child support and alimony . Also five years ago I became disabled from health issues and not able to return to work . Anyone with more than a 20 year marriage and for that matter alimony are quite aware of the new tax changes . Any person in my situation would hopefully have a kind professional attorney such as attorney Mayer and his professional staff to guide me in court . Believe me that attorney Mayer is well respected in the Canton divorce court . I know a lot of the staff in that court that ranges from judges, attorneys, security, and workers that respect him . Attorney Mayer knows the laws and will tell you what is and is not possible .

General practice lawyer | Nov 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. This lawyers contributions to this site are invaluable. I happily endorse this lawyers work, ability and charity to those asking for advice. Further, I like to endorse good lawyers, because I find the AVVO rating system to be dishonest and corrupt. Frequently, disgruntled litigants on the opposing side (not your clients) will bash a lawyer on this site, pretending to be "your" client. When this situation is brought to AVVO attention, Avvo refuses to do anything to investigate and remove the false, slanderous "client" reviews. AVVO is a mean petty internet blog site trying to make money off of lawyers, and does not care if the public receives truthful information."
