Did a great job representing son in his divorce proceedings. Always called back and answered any questions. Would highly recommend Atty Farias to others.

Excellent help, personable and professional

After my initially self-completed divorce documents were sent back by a judge, I found Bill during an online search and did some research on him; every place I found recommended him highly, so I took the step of asking him to review my documents. We spoke at length about all of my concerns and paperw...ork, and his review and recommendations were well thought-out and complete. Bill gave me the time I needed, including emailing me back at 9:30 on a Sunday night! At the start of the process, I didn’t think I needed a lawyer, but having Bill review my paperwork and be on-call in case of a problem put my mind at ease. Thanks Bill!

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.
