Highly recommend

I really needed help; I had never been in trouble. Mr. Causey not only cared for me as his client, but as a person. He was always professional, on-time, and courteous. He is also very good about preparing his clients for what to expect, what comes next, and how he can help. At my first consultatio...n with Mr. Causey he had already done his research on my charge and determined the best defense that he thought would work. After that meeting my stress level was considerably reduced. He explained the legal process in a manner easily understood by someone who is not a lawyer and was not at all condescending. He gave me hope at a time when options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. He went above and beyond to help me get the outcome that was best for me. I am extremely grateful for his help and I would highly recommend Mr. Causey.

Miracle worker

We hired Bill Causey after he came highly recommended by a friend. You will not find a more qualified and professional attorney. What sets Bill apart is that he makes himself available to any questions you may have and keeps you informed as to what to expect and how the case is proceeding. With Bill..., he takes the time to get to know you and treats you like more than just a client. Bill was able to get us a settlement that far exceeded anything we had dared to hope for. We will always be indebted to Bill for ending our nightmare and letting us resume our lives. Thanks Bill !

Excellent on all accounts

I hired Mr. Causey because I was faced with a number of misdemeanors in Greensboro. His legal assistant Candace was extremely courteous and informative. She was able to accurately estimate what the outcome would be, and in fact, the final resolution to my case was even better than what she had predic...ted. Bottom line: Mr. Causey was able to get all of my charges dismissed. Professional, courteous, understanding, and effective. Excellent.

TOP NOTCH PROFESSIONAL, VERY EXPERIENCED ATTORNEY TRUSTWORTHY!

Mr. Causey is a very experienced attorney. I retained him after my initial consultation because of his "sixth sense" about the charges in my case (he felt something wasn't right). He didn't treat me as if I were a criminal trying to avoid punishment. He explained what he thought were problems with... the charges against me. He and his staff were very attentive to my concerns; they listened intently, questioned me about certain details, and took notes. I felt like they had my best interest at heart. I wasn't pressured to retain him, but after my consultation, I felt I had made the right decision doing so. I've never dealt with an attorney before, but I felt I needed one this time. Mr. Causey assured me that he would get on my case right away, and when I left, I felt relieved. Would I recommend him to anyone needing an attorney? INDEED!

Excellent Lawyer

Bill Causey is an outstanding lawyer-- all the way around! There are not enough words in the dictionary to say how impressed we are with him. We had to be patient at the beginning because he has other cases. Paperwork and information had to also arrive from his sources before he could get the overall... picture. Once he had the information in hand, he shared with us what was on the table. After reviewing the data, it felt like a defeating case of "authority" over the "citizen". We knew we were right, but we didn't have enough to show that we were right. When Bill got closer to the date, he took the reigns, did research and put himself in our shoes. He saw that information from the opposition looked great on paper, but was not adding up in reality. He understood why we were so upset. When the court day arrived, he got up to represent us in front of the Judge. He explained in the most intellectual, knowledgeable, and heart-felt manner what had transpired that night. He followed his heart, didn't give up, and stood beside us all the way. The outcome was worthy of a Hollywood movie followed by a standing ovation. It was brilliantly presented, methodically thought out so that everything was understood, and we ultimately took our tiny window of hope and stretched it as wide as it could possibly open. He won the entire case. Justice prevailed. It would not have felt as good, had it not been so right all along. People from the opposing side were introducing themselves to Bill Causey! If you are in a situation and things look bleak, know that Bill will go to bat for you. He will do whatever he can to make sure that you are represented to the highest level possible. I highly recommend this lawyer to anyone. He is overall Excellent+ !!!-Edit Review
