Posted by Steve | February 21, 2014 | Contracts & Agreements

Honest and trustworthy Attorney.

Bill is a very likable and honest attorney. He was able to help us negotiate a very complex and at times hostile contract negotiation by quickly defusing the situation and demonstrating his legal prowess. His billing practices are very reasonable and fair and he doesn't over charge for, nor trump u...p the hours worked. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
