Highly Recommend

I had a very good experience with Attorney Cashman. My divorce was extremely difficult, and he helped make it less so. He was always very honest with me about what I could expect - he is extremely knowledgeable about the process and especially when custody is involved. I had a very good outcome an...d was very pleased with how hard he fought for me and my children. I highly recommend Attorney Cashman - you will not be disappointed.

Versatile

I have been using Mr. Cashman since the age of 15. He and his team of people (Pat in particular) has been wonderful over all these years; I am now 43. I and my entire family have used him for everything from civil, business contracts, divorce, criminal and wills. He is charismatic and has never le...ft us hanging, wondering what is going on with my case. I and my family would highly recommend him. Darrin

The Absolute Best Attorney

I have have known Bill Cashman for over 10 years and have been truly blessed to have him represent me during the most difficult time in my life. I listened to him by following all his advice and he made justice prevail for me and my family. I cant thank him enough. I trust him with my life. His exp...erience and expertise is second to none.

The worst of the worst

I have never met a lawyer as unprofessional as Bill Cashman. He is unaware of most important facts in the cases he brings and his manner in the courtroom consists of little more than insulting his opponents. His own interests come ahead of his clients' and his first priorities are his own fees and hi...s vanity. I would not hire him to walk my dog.

All About The Money

I hired this attorney to represent me in my divoce, at which time I gave him 5,000.00 dollars in march 2013. My ex's attorney would put me on the stand yell at me accuse me of everything, from stealing $ to slander. Attorney Cashman would just stand there and say nothing. I would ask him why he didn...'t say anything his only comment would be the judge will frown upon that in trial. I would call his office to see how the progress was going. He had me gather documents and I made copies of paperwork needed for both attorneys , in june 2013 he said he needed more money to continue . I gave him an additional 500.00 and said I would make payments. The end of August comes around he presented a bill of almost 6,000.00 dollars, he said that would cover me through the trial. I exclaimed to him I didn't have the money at that time. A couple of weeks go by I get a motion in the mail that he doesnt want to represent me any more because I can't pay 2 1/2 weeks . before trial . I had to find a new attorney Theresa Rose Degray for 3,000.00 dollars I was divorced before the trial date. I would highly recommend her. That was something I never saw Attorney Cashman make an attempt to do was negotiate with out going to trial . If he negotiated before a trial he wouldn't get more MONEY!!!!
