Not so good anymore.

Cost a lot but doesn't want to do the work anymore some will tell you he's good. It must be those with tons of cash. Definitely a major let down.

Highly Recommend This Attorney Willam Gerace

My son was facing 2 criminal charges for guns and drugs, I couldn’t be sincerely more pleased and happy with the outcome, my son could’ve faced a long time in jail but thanks to Mr. Gerace he will only be facing a year sentence. Mr. Gerace knows what he’s doing, he’s a very knowledgeable person in la...w and well experienced. He kept me updated with my son’s case until it was over. I would highly recommend attorney Mr. Willam Gerace.

Highly recommend Attorney Gerace

My son was facing 2 DUI's Could not be more pleased with the outcome. We always felt we were in trusted hands and was always kept informed throughout the process. Attorney Gerace was not only concerned of the outcome of the case, but was also concerned about my son's well-being. Highly recommend ...Attorney Gerace!

Felony Dropped

Atty Gerace represented me in 2018 and was able to have a felony, which carried two years of mandatory prison time, dropped. He’s excellent, as is his staff. He was professional and kept me apprised of what each next step was until the case was over. I highly recommended Atty Gerace to anyone in need... of a smart, sharp attorney.

Experienced & Highly Recommended

Obtained Attorney Gerace for my Son, who was facing some extremely serious charges. Initially, I was nervous expecting the worse due to him being a so blunt & straight forward. Needless to say, he did an Amazing job representing my Son, & we were grateful with the outcome of the case. He's a Veteran... in the field of Law.
