William Charles Fanning JR

Mr. William Fanning was my lawyer for my divorce and he was outstanding. I was very pleased with the legal services provided by his firm. Mr. Fanning answered all of my questions, provided helpful information, kept me informed and provided updates, and explained things very clearly. He was very conce...rned and supportive during my emotional and difficult time and provided excellent advice. His staff was very helpful, very professional, very courteous, completed all requests very quickly and always ensured and confirmed I was satisfied with final results. My ex-husband disagreed with the divorce settlement and on the day of the trial, further negotiations took place at the courthouse. In the end, thanks to Mr. Fanning being an outstanding and very knowledgeable attorney, he ensured I received my requests in the divorce settlement and I was completely satisfied. He showed his outstanding skills in dealing with others and dealing with this difficult issue during my divorce. From day one of hiring Mr. Fanning as my attorney for the divorce, everything was completed in a timely manner. This was a difficult time for me, but I was very pleased with the results. A special THANK YOU to Mr. Fanning and his awesome staff for helping me to move on to a new chapter in my life. I will definitely recommend his legal services to others.

Mr. Fanning represented me when I adopted my son. He clearly explained the legal process from start to finish, and he and his office walked us through every step along the way. Like many family law cases, there were some ups and downs, and a few complications. Mr. Fanning patiently and thoroug...hly addressed all of my concerns. His staff is courteous and professional, and always followed up on his behalf promptly. On the day of the adoption hearing, Mr. Fanning's expertise and knowledge was invaluable. He achieved the outcome that he said he could achieve in our case. He has been well respected in the court system in Charles County for many years. I highly recommend Bill Fanning as excellent choice to be your family law attorney.

Attorney Fanning represented me in a complicated & unique case. He is a very smart and compassionate family attorney who knows Maryland laws very well. He was always available on the phone/email and respond to my queries promptly. Above all he is a great human being who genuinely cares for his clien...ts. I not only found an excellent attorney but a great friend as well. His staff were helpful & prompt in answering my queries - very compassionate as well.

Mr. Fanning is a very nice man. At one stage, I was looking to save my marriage and he was very effective at throwing up road blocks to the divorce and trying to move towards reconciliation. Once I was intent on divorcing, I should have changed lawyers. He is well respected in Charles County as a ...child's best interest attorney. However, some spouses require a cut throat and that's not who he is. I also was not happy with his lack of strategy. I never had good conversations that played out the scenarios of certain moves and counter-moves. He gave a couple of suggestions or went along with requests that really ended up hurting my very, very complex child custody situation. I have no idea how much money I've spent yet, probably $20K if I had to guess, but at the end of the day I felt like I was the most aggressive and creative in the negotiations at the end. He did protect me from agreeing to something that would have labeled me badly at the end. He knows Charles County well and is well respected and a gentlemen. For most regular cases, I think he would be fantastic. In my case, I needed a strategist who could see the moves and counter moves a lot better. I am satisfied with the services in a generic way, but I can't say that I would hire the same person again. Again, great guy and he knows the law, but he needs to be partnered with someone else if you have a really, really messy case.
