Beyond Expectations!

I was not the type of person who goes to an attorney; In fact I did not seek legal representation for close to two years after I was seriously injured in a slip and fall accident. I thought I could handle things on my own however; it became evident that I needed the expertise of a Personal Injury At...torney as I faced back surgery & a need for future medical care. A friend referred me to Bill Davoren, with the promise of an attorney that would have my best interest in mind. My only regret is that I did not contact him sooner. Bill made me feel very comfortable throughout this process, explaining in detail as we worked through many stages of my case. He showed me genuine compassion & concern for my well-being. Bill responded promptly to my calls, e-mails & always took time answering my many questions. Now, I am happy to say that my case has come to a conclusion.I can’t thank Bill & his team at WRKK enough for all the work they put into my case. I will highly recommend Bill Davoren to family & friends in need of a Personal Injury Attorney, his guidance; professionalism and attention to detail are invaluable.

Not Your Average Lawyer

I had the pleasure of being represented by Mr. Davoren in a personal injury case that ended in 2015. I was very pleased with the outcome of the case and with the quality of service I received from Mr. Davoren. His attention to detail and professionalism is second to none! He has a way of making you... feel like you are his only client!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have always been impressed with how Bill stays on top of changes in the law relevant to personal injury claims. Too many attorneys claim to handle personl injury claims, but unless you stay keenly aware, like Bill does, you do a disservice to your client. Based on this and his overall ability in representing those in need, I highly endorse Bill."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I met Bill when we were representing opposing parties in a personal injury case. It was immediately clear that Bill believed wholeheartedly in his client and in her case. It was also clear that he was a skilled negotiator and litigator who would not hesitate to go to trial if he and his client were not fully satisfied with the insurance company's offer. In the end, he delivered a persuasive, impassioned argument to the insurance adjuster via telephone that resulted in a favorable settlement for his client while avoiding the cost and delay of a trial. His client was thrilled. I left the courthouse that day impressed by his advocacy, his tenacity and his unwavering belief in his client. In fact, I was so impressed that when I needed a personal injury attorney, I hired Bill. I have worked alongside and opposite many talented and well known trial attorneys. Any one of them would have been a wise choice to represent me, but I never doubted my decision to retain Bill as my counsel."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
