Bill is an outstanding attorney. He has unique knowledge of the interplay between bankruptcy and tax issues, and speaks often at Continuing Legal Education seminars on this topic. I never hesitate to refer him clients with difficult tax issues and he handles their matters skillfully. He is also very knowledgeable about the interplay between bankruptcy and matrimonial law. When I need to discuss a complex bankruptcy issue with someone, Bill is one of the first people I call. I highly endorse Bill.
