Above and Beyond - A Compassionate Advocate

Working with Attorney William Rush has been nothing short of an astounding success story. I discovered Attorney Rush online while searching for legal counsel. I required an attorney who would advocate during a delicate personal life matter. I wanted counsel who would care and not treat me as a billab...le hour as most large firms have done in the past. From the inception of hiring Attorney Rush, I recognized without question he was the right attorney for the job. I found he was an attorney who sincerely cared to assist me. He made me feel secure that he could help with my case and eased my overwhelming stress. Attorney Rush was highly knowledgeable and was always reachable when concerns and issues arose. Typically the experience when dealing with attorneys can be frustrating. Attorney Rush felt more similar to a true friend and advocate and demonstrated his concern for my welfare. Never before have I retained counsel who absolutely was "on my side" without fail and only focused on their fees and billable hours. Additionally, my case was a flat fee. Attorney Rush far exceed billable hours as there were many evolving and changing matters on my case. I offered to pay him more. He didn't delay my case or ask for more funds. Mr. Rush said, don't worry about it, let's just get this done. I cannot say enough about the stature of his character and his compassion for his clients. If you are searching for an attorney and require someone to fight for you, spend extra time working on your case - he is the attorney for you. If you need an attorney to go the extra mile, he is the attorney for you. You will not regret hiring Attorney Rush simply because he cares, and he is extremely competent and knowledgeable about the law. I will be using Attorney Rush for all my future legal matters. Not only did I find an advocate, but I also found a friend. Thank you for everything you have done for me, Mr. Rush. I wouldn't be in the best position possible without you. I encourage anyone searching for counsel to contact Attorney Rush first!

Consultancy saved me big bucks

I had a tax issue I was afraid of getting into trouble over; he explained the law and gave me detailed instructions on how to resolve it on my own.

Gold Star Service!

Mr. Rush treated me like a queen during my consultation. My issue ended up getting settled without needing his assistance but I would use him for any of my legal needs in a heartbeat due to his stellar customer service and knowledge of the legal system.
