Posted by Lise | April 14, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Civil Rights

From Estate planning and Personal Injury to THE Civil Rights issue for the 21st Century

Mr. Kreisher took on my civil case that was adjunct to an extraordinarily complicated criminal matter involving theft by entities at the highest level. He did so when other attorneys I consulted did not have the courage or concern to even legitimately examine the evidence I had gathered. His backgrou...nd as a prosecutor has been invaluable. He has been extremely helpful in follow-up consults for years about the case that is now in the courts more than a decade. His frustration with how the system allows the financially powerful to defy the law has been palpable and as ardent as my own frustration with the entire matter. We obsess over the rights of the Defendant in this country. Victims deserve it more. Defendants get due process and have the right to a speedy trial. Victims, far too often in this 21st century, are dismissed on ill-informed, arbitrary, and prejudicial grounds that not only violate their Civil Rights but that often constitute a secondary assault by the judicial system itself. Mr. Kreisher is among the few attorneys I have met that not only understands this but is doing what he can from his position now in private practice to effect change in this kind of glaring miscarriage of justice. He has defended the rights of those with no voice in animal cruelty trials. And I have also worked with him in a situation of a Defendant that had been wrongfully accused of animal abuse. Again his prosecutor's background is in evidence in his ability to ably serve his clients' rights and needs. I am sure he brings outstanding legal talents to bear in all of his cases.

Bill Kreisher

Bill helped with my divorce and resulted in a fair settlement. Later, he helped with drawing up my Living Will. Bill is very responsive and thorough in his law practice. Highly recommended.

  • 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.
