*Highly Recommend*

Highly recommend!! Bill took the time to explain everything in detail so that I knew exactly what to expect. He is extremely prompt at returning emails and phone calls, which is so important when going through a stressful situation! Overall great experience with a great outcome!

Professional & Intelligent Attorney

If you are looking for a professional, straight forward, hardworking attorney than Attorney Bill Farias is the one. From day one that I encountered Attorney Farias I knew he was what was needed for my mothers child support case. He was easy to talk to, very knowledge and very affordable! Attorney Fa...rias always responded to emails and calls immediately, even on his days off he would respond. You do not see that now a days. I know from here on out if anyone is looking for a Family Law Attorney I will send them directly to Attorney Farias. You can tell he truly enjoys his job and wants to resolve the issue and quickly as possible. Thank you Attorney Farias for making this dreadful process a great experience all because of you and your hard work!

Efficient, personable, professional service.

Mr. Farias handled my case in a most professional manner. He was always prompt, courteous and efficient. His fee was quite fair and the results of my case were excellent. I recommend Mr. Farias highly and without reservation.

Proffesional and Confident Attorney

I was recently involved in a motor vehicle accident and subsequently was facing criminal charges. I met with Attorney Farias and was immediately impressed with his professionalism and confidence. He was very straight forward and honest and had good ideas to help prove my case in court. With the help ...of Attorney Farias all charges against me were dropped. I am very pleased with the service I was provided and I would use him again. I would also recommend his services to anyone in need.

good lawer

I had a good experience with Bill he always kept me informed and he helped me get a fair outcome in my divorce which without him I could not do. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a good lawyer. He also did his best to keep costs down and I appreciate that.

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.
