A big thanks to Attorney Bly

I am a Massachusetts resident who had the misfortune of being arrested for an OUI in Maine. This was the first time I have ever had a problem like this and had no idea what to do which caused me a lot of stress. The day after the incident I searched for a Lawyer in Maine and found Attorney Bly. I cal...led and he took the time to talk to me that day on the phone, made me feel much better knowing I found someone who understood my problem and that relieved my stress. He handled all the paper work including telling me I did not need to travel back to Maine for the arraignment since he could go in my place. Dealing with him was easy even though I was 2 hours away, he was very prompt at returning calls and answering messages on MyCase platform. I feel he got me the best outcome in my case since I was facing mandatory jail time for refusing breathalyzer.

Great guy, awesome lawyer

William Bly did a fantastic job working with me side by side on my case, and was ready available if I needed to contact him. When it came down to the end he did what was best for me and we where able to come an arrangement that had the charges dismissed!

Bill Bly Saved My Future

Just over 2 years ago While on vacation and visiting Maine from Florida I encountered probably the worst scenero I had ever faced. I was charged with an OUI and to make matters worse, I was from out of state and facing a feeling of utter helplessness. I searched the web and found Bill Bly. Upon meeti...ng with him I found an overwhelming feeling of trust and confidence in his abilities. Bill shared each and every Pro/Con of the situation that I was facing. The entire court process was quite lengthy and stressful to my wife and I both, but at it's conclusion Bill was able to have my OUI DISMISSSED and pled to a far more favorable charge. This was of the upmost importance to my livelihood and future as I am a class A CDL holder and my license is everything to me. He never promised the world, only that he would do his very best for me and delivered superbly on that promise. I would recommend Mr. Bly to anyone who is up against a seemingly insurmountable mountain to climb. Thank you Mr. Bly for securing my life and future.

Confident choice

I did not know criminal speeding was a thing until I was pulled over in York going 60 in a 30 late for a wedding rehearsal. I felt so bad about the whole situation, knew I was in the wrong. The more I read about the seriousness of my situation the worse I felt. This was my first time being pulled ove...r and I didn't know what to do. Thankfully Bill was there to help. When I first talked to him he put me at ease saying there is much worse things I could have done and that if the right steps were taken we should be able to get it reduced. Out of everyone I consulted he was the only one with to say he wanted to do better than just getting my ticket reduced to non-criminal. Most made that sound difficult and a best case thing. While Bill did not provide any guarantees, he was confident in what he could do for me so I hired him. He had me take an in person defensive driving class and send up my transcript (I am a college senior). I also did some volunteering which if you haven't done in awhile, like me, is a great way to make some new friends. Any question I had Bill was able to answer and he did so quickly. Being from out of state Bill was also able to make all appearances for me which I am extremely thankful for. I'm sure Bill had many cases to handle the day of my dis-positional conference, and while mine was likely the most minor, he still called multiple time to explain how it was going. In the end he got the criminal charges dropped and my ticket reduced to 15 mph over the speed limit. I am extremely thankful and have learned my lesson. With Bills help and guidance I was able to make the right choices in my case and he was able to make my big mistake a minor one. Definitely give him a call.

Best Decision I Have Ever Made

I was charged with OUI/ refusing a breathalyzer and having underage passengers in the vehicle. I am from out of state and at the time was terrified considering i had never been in trouble like this before. I was referred to Attorney Bly by an in state lawyer and cannot thank either of these two men e...nough. Bill was entirely transparent during the whole ordeal, letting me know the worst and best possible outcomes and explained each step of the process as they occurred. He was able to complete the court hearings and disposition without my presence (so i didnt have to drive 4+ hours each time) and took care of everything using an extremely convenient online website. Any time i had a question Bill and his employees were there for me and answered me in a time friendly and descriptive manner. Bill even met with me at his office on a weekend when the office was closed to discuss my case. Bill's confidence and intelligence was very comforting and i couldnt imagine having hired anybody else. I would HIGHLY recommend Attorney William T Bly to anyone in legal trouble and I thank Bill for everything he has done for me. My case ended with 1 year of probation in the state of Maine, a fine, community service and a substance abuse evaluation with no license suspension or further legal issues. I would hire Bill 10/10 times and again, would suggest his services to anyone in need of legal help. Thank you!!
