Phenomenal, trustworthy attorney

We hired Bill in the midst of a very difficult time for our family and family business. He guided us through the fog of this crisis with great clarity and compassion. Bill achieved the exact result we were aiming for from the outset of retaining him. I would hire Bill if I ever needed his help again ...and would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.

Attorney Review

Bill is a very intelligent person and the type of person you want playing for your team. He approaches every situation with caution and advises the best solutions with years of experience. I was in a bad situation which could have been worse but Bill worked hard to make sure we didn’t get the far end... of the stick.

Knowledgeable, insightful, generous with his time

William Denver is an incredibly knowledgeable attorney, patient and kind and generous with his time and advise. Bill assisted my most important client through a challenging matter and his guidance was crucial to a positive resolution. I have had the pleasure of serving on the NJSBA Solo and Small... Firm section and Bill’s leadership through our most challenging times was invaluable. I whole heartedly endorse Bill as an attorney and as a person for all of his care insight and persistence that he provides.

Great advocate on insurance issues!

Bill did a great job advocating for us, and we ended up getting a full payout on our claim. I definitely recommend him!

A True Counselor

I am an attorney myself, and I hired Bill for a personal matter. Legal matters can be very dicey and you want an attorney who will roll up his sleeves and get into the weeds of the case to provide you with proper guidance. Bill was integrally involved in my matter allowing him to provide excellent ...counsel. He is a great communicator and makes himself available when you need him. He also has a great grasp of the law. Throughout my matter, I felt I was in capable hands. I learned a lot about how to model my practice based on Bill’s representation.

Litigation lawyer | Sep 25

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Denver as colleagues in both the public and private sectors for many years. He consistently impressed me with his client-focused approach to the law, intellect and impressive litigation skills. Further, his broad expertise in a number of substantive areas, including civil and criminal litigation and insurance coverage, is a rarity these days as most attorneys specialize in only one or two areas. I highly recommend Mr. Denver."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
