Fantastic Results

Bill's professionalism and interpersonal skills carried the day from start to finish in his representation of my OUI case. During our initial consultation, Bill was candid and reassuring, and he highlighted his strong relationship with the DA's office. To ultimately achieve a dismissal, after a per...iod of good behavior, is an outstanding outcome and serves to highlight both his positive relationships at the courthouse and extensive experience. Particularly given the potential professional impact, the absence of a criminal conviction is a phenomenal victory. To top it off, Bill is highly responsive and always willing to schedule a call to discuss any questions (or anxiety) you're facing. I could not recommend him more.

Outstanding results from a very competent lawyer!!!!

I first found Bill here on this website. Based on the reviews I decided to at least interview him for my case of OUI. From the first he was very personable, extremely straight forward, and comfortable. The first 1 hour consultation actually took over an hour and a half. I could tell his was very ...interested not only in my case, but me as a person. He asked what I thought was my best hoped for outcome and I replied "dismissal". Here we are a few months later after my dispositional conference with the DA on my case. I could actually see the DA through a window as her and Bill discussed my case. Her expression first was very warm and inviting as in meeting an old friend. Then she was looking at paperwork very intently and had a furrowed brow. Then I could see a very no-nonsense conversation occurring. And last a satisfied professional smile on her face. Bill came in to my conference room a few minutes later to tell me he was able to point out the difficulties of the case in terms of prosecution, and then his proposal of a clean cut case to the DA. It entailed putting me fundamentally on something like a suspended sentence for a year, at the end of which if I provided documentation of continued treatment the state, and lack of any further legal problems, would then allow the complete dismissal of my case. Which of course I will fully do!!!! So, bottom line Bill's skills, personable but professional demeanor, and straightforward style obtained exactly the result I hoped for and saved my personal life in this time of a "once in a lifetime" traumatic experience. I totally think Bill was just the right lawyer for the circumstances and the results show it!!!! You can't go wrong selecting him for your case!

Can't thank him enough

I interviewed a few lawyers and went with my gut instinct and hired Bill. I am extremely happy with my decision. Bill and his staff were always accessible and very friendly/helpful. Bill took the time to find a problem with the officers testimony and got an OUI reduced and got the Motor Vehicle Depar...tment to rescind everything off my driving record. It's been a huge relief to me and my family and I owe it all to Bill. Again, I can't thank him enough.

Hire Bill today.

I hired Atty. William Bly to represent me in a situation involving an ATV operated on a public way. My BAC was measured at .21 in the police station. This was considered my first DUI as I had a previous DUI 33 years ago. I was quite worried at what the outcome of this situation was going to be as ...I need to have my drivers license for work. A loss of license would have been devastating for me and the thought of doing 2-7 days in jail was not too appealing either. Bill answered every one of my phone calls or e-mails the same day, many times in less than a hour. He is extremely knowledgeable and well versed on all aspects of DUI defense. His office staff is professional and courteous. There was a time during the process where I felt like giving up but Bill talked me into staying the course. I'm glad I listened to him. I left the courtroom with a deferred disposition for one year. No loss of license, no points on my driving record and no Jail. Thank you Bill.

Fair, honest, favorable results

Attorney Bly really helped me get through a tough situation. I was charged with an OUI and refused the breath test to which my license was suspended and faced criminal charges. I contacted attorney Bly and he was very fair and honest with me. Not only did he help me avoid an OUI but the entire case w...as dropped. Thanks to attorney Bly I still have no criminal record and was able to avoid having my license suspended in my home state of MA and quickly reinstated my license in ME. I would highly recommend attorney Bly to anyone facing similar circumstances.
