Criminal Defense

Approximately 3 years ago I was in a tight spot with the crimimal charges against me. I was overwhelmed that I was charged with them in the first place and there is not enough room in this review to to even summarize the whole situation. I felt I needed a top notch lawyer to help me with the case, an...d I had retained Mr. Powers for a traffic violation years earlier. When we met for the first time over this case he knew that I was emotionally a wreck about the case and he immediately put me at ease. This case was in the court system for about 2 years. Without him I would not have made it. It was physically, mentally, and emotionally draining and he was always there to answer my questions and support me. He got my charges dropped and and literally helped me through one of the hardest times in my life. He is a top notch Crimianal defense attorney!

Bill Powers gets results....worth your time and money!

This was my first experience dealing with a DWI and Bill Powers came highly recommended from not only his peers but assistant district attorneys I know in the state. I did my research on selecting an attorney, and his name kept coming up. Bill Powers and his law firm are very professional, relentles...s, maticulous and will work endless hours for you. If your career is on the line, you want him representing you. I assure you, the District attorney on your case does not want to see him representing you.

Hire the best and relieve the stress

I was visiting Charlotte and got pulled over and arrested for DWI for refusing to blow. I have a very high profile name and job back in my hometown in the legal industry but I didn't know who to call in Charlotte. I started doing my research and all roads led to Bill Powers as the best around. I Coul...d not afford to have this case on my record so I paid top dollar for a top attorney. The State had a weak case and we all knew it but they were not going to roll over. Bill took the case to trial and despite not presenting all the evidence we had Bill won my case with a Not-Guilty verdict with out a chance from the State to apeal. Although he could have gotten the case dismissed he rolled the dice and let the case go to verdict w/o any motions to dismiss. I was nervous but Bill said "trust me" and I did. He was right and I recomend you trust Bill Powers also, there is no doubt in my mind that he is the very best at what he does.

"SUPER LAWYER", super work, super outcome

Absolutely highest recommendation. Spoke with 2 other lawyers before locating him via "Super Lawyers-NC". Impressed with reviews and specialized & respected knowledge of NC law. Convinced he was the absolute best choice @ our initial consult when he provided a detailed explanation of the entire le...gal process as it related to our case. Perfect combination of integrity, knowledge, skill, & compassion. In the court room, impressive, skillful, argument of the issues. Case resulted in "Not Guilty" by judge. Outside court room, he really cared about us personally. He was "SUPER LAWYER" for us.

PATIENCE and POWERS

Every Attorney I spoke to, before I found Bill, wanted me to plead guilty. They all said that I didn't have much of a chance to fight it. Bill explained every part of the law and, the case that was against me, in terms that the average person could understand. When the day came for trial, he consulte...d me on which way he was going on defense and I trusted his judgment 100%! I was amazed at how he handled everything in court. He is definitely one of the best! I was very fortunate to find him and I highly recommend him.
