Can divorce go right? You bet cha!

I had the pleasure of meeting Bill through a friend's referral. I needed to divorce a dumpster fire. Bill walked me through the divorce steps, and explained how the process worked, what it involved, as well as what it required. Throughout the whole process Bill and his office partners and team wer...e polite, professional, and overall responsive. I found his rates to be up to par with the industry as well as the area.

Excellent Experience (Considering the Circumstances)

I have been so pleased with Bill and his staff. I transferred my case to Bill when I wasn't happy with my previous attorney. Bill quickly educated himself about my situation, asked thoughtful questions, and wrote a great separation agreement. He was always highly responsive and answered my questio...ns quickly and efficiently. I felt well cared for and supported by Bill and his staff, Jill and Betty. Although divorce is a painful process in the best of circumstances, Bill made it just that much better.

Exceptional Legal Professional- Above and Beyond

I came across William Mayer via a referral from a friend. I was truly grateful from the moment we met to the conclusion of my case that I had come to know him and his team.  William Mayer and his entire team provided the most exceptional experience during a very challenging time for my family. I have... worked with attorney's both in my professional career and in former personal matters, however, this practice is one I would request services from again and highly recommend for  anyone in need of legal assistance surrounding divorce, child support or post divorce matters.  They were professional, timely, responsive and above and beyond fair and honest with billing and sound legal advice.  At all times, I felt the entire team knew the intricacies of my families needs and had each member's most  sincere interest at heart during the entire process. I could not recommend any legal firm more highly.  Attorney Mayer and his entire team provided the perfect balance of legal, ethical and empathetic balance. I was never at a loss of what was happening at all times.  The way he worked and communicated with all aspects of the legal process and members clearly represented how highly respected he is amongst his peers and professionals.

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.

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."
