William Robert Francis Conners

I retained Mr. Conners at a high rate, with assurances that he would be handling the case. I was pawned off to one of his newer less experienced attorneys when he did not make an appearance at my court date (went to a different clients date instead). I was then over billed in hours for them to delibe...rate with each other (often doing the same tasks multiple times) and each work on different strategies, as well as a final bill for hours that did not exsist. Lack of communication in the firm and what I would consider unethical billing practices.

Mr. Connors is affable and quite knowledgeable about the law. His firm is small. Which turned out to be a deficit in my case as he was easily overwhelmed by the “big boys” of opposing counsel’s firm. As a consequence, The legal fees quickly spiraled out of control and greatly exceeded the bud...get and the end result was not as good as I had hoped.

William Conners represented me as defense counsel in a contentious family law case against an aggressive Fairfax attorney and an even more aggressive, litigious, and vindictive ex-spouse.

Mr. Conners was professional, extremely knowledgeable, compassionate and highly ethical during my complicated divorce/child support proceedings. His assertive demeanor in the courtroom allowed us to resolve issues quickly. He really understands the complications of an emotional divorce and knows j...ust how the nuances of the law applied to my unique situation, and, as a result, was able to cut off most of the game playing by opposing counsel. It was inspiring to see him standing firm on my behalf and negotiating a very equitable settlement for my family. I highly recommend Mr. Conners to anyone who needs an attorney, no matter how complicated the situation.
