Thank you Attorney Bly

I contacted Attorney Bly when my (soon to be ex) husband had me arrested for domestic assault. I had no idea what to expect as I had never found myself in this situation before. The charges were false, there was never any assault and I immediately became scared. I was scared, of going to jail, los...ing my job, my reputation would be ruined. From the very first phone call with Attorney Bly, I knew I had made the right choice. He was understanding and clear in the direction he would take my case. He assured me and encouraged me the entire way. The office kept me well informed at all times and kept me from falling apart some days. It was a very long four months (court delays) until my case was over. In the end Attorney Bly was able to get a dismissal. I am happy to say that I put my entire trust in him and although he never made me any promises on an outcome, he did see me through one of the toughest points in my life, and was able to get me the best possible result. I am happy to recommend him with 100% confidence.

Better Than I Could Have Ever Hoped For

I received an OUI Charge in the State of Maine during a Family Vacation. I have had several prior convictions, and one more would have effectively ended my professional career, not to mention the risk of receiving a Felony Charge. I contacted Bill immediately, basing my selection from online reviews.... For a flat fee, Bill did not promise anything due to the complexity of my history, however his knowledge and confidence were more than enough for me to lay my future in WTB Law's hands. Through the process, I explained my fairly unique situation in detail, and he used this information to steer my case towards a favorable resolution. He presented several offers to the District Attorney in hopes of reaching a resolution without going to Trial. At the end of the day, the facts were solid and the arrest was legitimate, which didn't leave much room for Mr. Bly to negotiate, especially with a history of similar convictions. Despite overwhelming odds, Bill was able to reach a resolution I never thought possible! His approach was calculated, unique and far from the "Strong Arm" tactic I am used to seeing. Bill and his Team kept me informed of my options and set realistic expectations at every turn of events, but ultimately secured the ability for me to continue working, almost entirely unscathed. I cannot thank them enough, and would highly recommend Bill and his Team to anyone seeking DUI representation anywhere in Maine. If you need the best, look no further.

WTB Law successful OUI defense

WTB Law was the best thing we did to fight the OUI my son received in Orono Maine while at school. They have a set price for OUI defense from start to finish and offer a very fair payment plan--The first attorney I have ever known to do such a thing and thank god he did. It took us 18 months from s...tart to finish to get before the judge. Bill, Nathan and Laura were fabulous the whole time. The online communication portal was fabulous and kept us up to date with everything. Laura was always available and helpful answering questions and explaining the process. Nathans willingness to travel to Bangor for all pre trial stuff saved us so much aggravation. Mr. Blys court appearance was all I could have hoped for-- his knowledge about our case and the nuances of the law were an integral part of our win. If you end up having to defend yourself against an OUI in Maine. I would highly recommend WTB Law. Hopefully I will never need them again--but if I do--they will be my first and last call.

WTB Law is the best!

I am from Massachusetts. I was pulled over in Franklin county because the tail lights of my rental were out. I was cuffed and taken to the Franklin county jail on suspicion of OUI. I was arrested after an improperly administered Breathalyzer test put me at the legal limit. I hired Bill that week...end after meeting with him in Biddeford. Bill’s team discovered the error in how the test was administered while reviewing footage from the officer’s body camera. Bill and Nathan got the BMV suspension dropped after three hearing continuations and negotiated a deferred disposition agreement (a charitable donation and good behavior) that avoided a jury trial for me and will have my case dismissed next December. Attorney Bly knows the law, employs great and knowledgeable people, kept me informed throughout the process, was respectful to me as an individual and protected my interests. He is a wonderful person and Attorney. I highly recomend Bill and team.

An Improbable Outcome!!

I came into Bill’s office a completely broken down mess in early June 2017. The night before I had pulled over on the side of the road during a panic attack. I wanted to keep myself and others on the road safe. An officer pulled behind me to do a wellness check. He had seen I had a history of a prev...ious OUI conviction and seemed to assume that I was driving under the influence. I have had major knee surgery and have some physical limitations, unable to perform physical sobriety testing. The officer arrested me, believing I was intoxicated and took me to the county jail. Upon arrival to the jail, I asked to use the bathroom as I take diuretics for high blood pressure. This request was denied repeatedly without any valid reason. The officer confirmed that urinating would not effect the breathalyzer result but would not budge. At almost 10 minutes into the wait period, I really had to go! In frustration, I said once, that if he wasn’t going to let me use the bathroom I wasn’t sure I was taking his test. I was then hauled off by guards and thrown into a holding cell. I was now facing a second OUI refusal and was devestated. Bill was honest right from the get go. The penalties I was facing were severe. After hearing my story, he reassured me that he believed me. The DA made no reasonable offer so we prepared for jury trial. Bill spent 4-5 hours prepping me for trial. We went to trial in December 2017. I could not have asked for any better defense. Bill was able to bring into serious question the officers’ memory, documentation and knowledge of field sobriety testing. The trial went unexpectedly into a second day. After almost four hours of deliberations, the jury was hung so a mistrial was declared! The DA’s office eventually offered a driving to endanger plea which I happily accepted. The other part of my case was the BMV portion. It took four rescheduled hearings for it to finally be heard on the fifth. Of note, the hearing was after my trial. The officer failed to appear, my license suspension was rescinded and it was over! Unbelievable! I could not have hoped for better outcomes. Regardless of our victory and even if my case had ended differently, I was very impressed with Bill and his office staff. Always polite, sympathetic, responsive and informative. A plus communication! I very much appreciated Bill’s honesty, even when it may have not been something I wanted to hear. He’s extremely knowledgeable and a strong advocate. I highly recommend him to anyone faced with this terrifying predicament that has significant and potentially life changing consequences. I am beyond grateful!
