Great Attorney

Great attorney. Bill Shilling was my attorney during the sale of my home. The buyer was extremely irresponsible in continually rescheduling the closing dates resulting in a breach of contract. This was a total disregard for a single mom and her children whom were truly inconvenienced causing a multit...ude of challenges. Bill Shilling’s excellent knowledge of the law, professionalism and tenacity came into play which resulted in a successful close.
