HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I was honored to be represented by such a caring, knowledgeable, well-known, and highly respected expert. This is the strong and noble representation you are fortunate to have by your side no matter how simple or complex your case. Works with an equally highly rated and professional expert team. Pe...rsonally as I faced a challenging experience, I consider Mr. Mayer to have positively impacted our lives. He saved my child and I by providing us with the support and strategic thinking necessary as we navigated a difficult situation for over a year. I was very fortunate to have been represented by someone of such character and reputation. This is who you want, this is who you need, no matter your case, believe me! In court, when it matters the most in front of a judge, Mr. Mayer brings the brilliance, strength, and elegance to the forefront so that the client's voice is effectively heard.

Someone you can trust, for the long haul

Five years ago, Bill Mayer guided me through a contentious divorce involving a child, a house, and multiple retirement accounts, along with some other unusual complexities. His professionalism, deep knowledge, pragmatism, and compassion consistently impressed me throughout the entire process. He w...as also conscientious in managing the time and expense involved, sticking to what was necessary. Although reaching the best outcome was by far the highest priority, I appreciated his sensitivity to my financial constraints, and at no point felt that I had been overcharged. My new wife and I continue to rely on Bill for guidance and legal support though ongoing changes in financial and visitation conditions, such as having one parent move out of the Boston area with my son on the verge of starting high school. I can recommend Bill as an attorney, and attest to his exceptional personal character without reservations.

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.

Attorney Mayer was offered by a lifelong friend as "the attorney" to help me with my divorce. Divorce is a horrible life event, particularly when young children are involved. I was most concerned about protecting my children during the process. Bill Mayer was extremely caring, knowledgeable, and pro...vided advice that made a difficult time in our life tolerable. I was greatly impressed by Attorney Mayer's ability to resolve the many issues and concerns I had with my ex-wife's legal team. It was clear to me during on-going negotiations and when the separation agreement was finalized, that Attorney Mayer is respected by his peers as well as the Judges in Probate Court. Attorney Mayer and his team were helpful and responsive when I needed them most. Thank you Attorney Bill Mayer for being trustworthy, caring, compassionate and for your relentless professionalism. I have recommended you to family and friends and recommend you to anyone looking for "the Attorney".

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.

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."
