Excellent Attorney
Bill stayed on top of me to get him the paperwork needed to provide me with the best possible outcome. He got one ridiculous ticket dismissed, and had the other lessened to a non moving violation. No insurance hikes and no dmv points for me. Very happy!!

Awesome Attorney!!
I got a speeding ticket in Apex doing 62 in a 45. Got home, spoke to my son who told me to call Mr. William Goldston. I did call him, he told me over the phone what it would cost and I hired him. He did go to court for me, and on that day after he went to court for me, he sent me an email telling me ...
"I endorse this lawyer. I am impressed with William's answers and thoughtful advice to questions on Avvo."
"I am impressed with Mr. Goldston's thoughtful advice and answers to legal questions on Avvo. He has an in-depth understanding of the law and an ability to communicate legal concepts clearly and effectively. I endorse this lawyer!"
"I have referred several clients with worker's comp claims to Mr Goldston and each has called me back to thank me for referring them to his office. They all have sung his praises as a skilled lawyer who listens and understands, fights hard to protect and preserve their rights and demonstrates compassion and concern for those who were injured. 5 stars!"
