Best lawyer in Philly !

Don’t know where to start . I wanna thank my savior Jesus Christ. Mr Will wise is an awesome person . Please don’t look no farther when hiring an attorney. He is full of confidence, compassion , empathy, straightforward. I was facing some serious charges of felony theft .I got accused of wrongful cha...rges . I am innocent of those charges . I was really worried about my family especially my son with special needs. What would my future be . Mr Will believed me . He went through step by step process what I have to go through the judicial system. He gave me a good payment plan option never rushed me when it came to the payment plan that I have to pay and then we will forward. He is a beast talking to the prosecutors . He told me straight forward I shouldn’t be even charged . They have to dismiss the case . If they don’t he is not worried . By Gods grace and Mr Will hard work and dedication to my case . The charges against me are dropped . CASE DISMISSED. Lastly I wanna say thank you to Mr Micheal SKA LAW Firm . The best in the Philly region . Everyone in the firm treats you like a family . They understand what you’re going through. I highly recommend this law firm . Please don’t hesitate or look no further. Thank you Mr Will for being there for me and fighting my case . God bless you ! ❤️1

Gave me a fresh start at life. Thanks will

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I hired William Weiss (aka Will) for two different cases, and both times he delivered outstanding results. In my first case, my car made the news and the police came ready to kick in my door. I called Will immediately — he stepped in, put a stop to everything, and reassured me that I... would be okay and that my door wouldn’t be kicked in. Later on, when major crime detectives had my car as evidence, Will worked back and forth with the detective on the case and got my car back for me within a few weeks — even though they originally said I wouldn’t get it back until after the case was over. This was my first time ever being charged with a crime, and Will walked me through exactly what would happen at each court date. He made sure I felt confident and informed, and in the end, Will got the entire case thrown out — a result I never imagined was possible. In my second case, I was facing six felonies — with clear evidence against me, including phone location data and video footage of my car and me. I was 100% caught and guilty, but somehow, some way, Will got the entire case dismissed. Because of him, I got a fresh start at life. I really appreciate Will because I’m not the best with times, dates, or communication — but he always answered every call and text and kept me updated every step of the way. When Will walks into a courtroom, you can tell his name holds weight. He comes in strong, confident, and prepared to do exactly what he says he’ll do. If you need a lawyer who truly fights for you, communicates clearly, and gets real results, I highly recommend William Weiss. He gave me hope and a second chance. I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Thanks will

Lifeline Attorney, Lifetime Friend

Words don’t do “justice” when it comes to commending how great of a lawyer Will is. So here’s my humble attempt. Will is a great attorney if you ever find yourself in trouble with the law, or if the law finds trouble with you. He is very personable, takes time and dedicates great effort in find...ing out about your case, works diligently and patiently with you throughout the process, and delivers outstanding results in the end. In other words, he CARES!! I’m speaking from personal experience. After trying and failing to find the right attorney to represent me in a case that was outlandish from the start, I was fortunate enough to find Will. I’ve been very satisfied with how he handled the case throughout the process and is always just one call or text away whenever you need him. In the end, the felony charges were dropped, and probation was the outcome. And I’m confident even if I ever have questions or concerns with the case post-judgement, I can always go to Will, and he will be there for me. Just imagine the peace of mind that brings. William A Weiss, thank you! A lifeline attorney, and a lifetime friend.
