Best in the business!

Bill Powers is simply the best in the business. He and his legal team assisted me with a traffic ticket recently and did so in such an easy, yet professional manner. Bill uses common language in his approach to advise on the law and provides all of the information needed to make the best decision f...or the client. I would highly recommend this firm.

Unbelievable

Bill Powers and his team of paralegals surpassed all my expectations. We were involved in an accident and recieved four citations. I reached out to Bill for guidance, knowing that with four citations I could lose my license for two years and my insurance would increase dramatically. Quite frankly,... I was scared at what the out come would be. Bill made me feel comfortable from the very start. He and his staff were quick to respond in returning phone calls and emails. Bill was able to handle of my citations off the docket. I did not have to go to court and he was able (to my amazement) have ALL four citations dismissed. Thank you and reccommendations don't seem to be enough gratitude to him for being able to take care of this. I shared this with another attorney and he was amazed that Bill was able to accomplish this. If you are in a situtation where you need legal assistance, please help yourself out by calling Bill Powers. He will be honest with you and doesn't judge you for the situation that you are in. I can't say enough good things about what he has done......Thank you Bill.

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 - Dominating Court Presence

I am from South Carolina and was charged at a traffic stop while on a hunting trip in North Carolina. I have never been charged with anything in my life so this was a very stressful and distressing situation. I had no idea who to call to represent me out of state. I called a highly respected attor...ney in my hometown in SC and he immediately recommended Bill Powers, "stating that Bill is one of the best if not the best DUI lawyers in North Carolina". When I spoke with Bill he compiled all the details from my traffic stop, clearly explained my options to me and then stated that based upon the circumstances of my case he strongly felt we could win in court. He made it clear that in court he would aggressively defend my case. In fact at the time he had recently won a case very similar to mine. In that first conversation, Bill provided clear direction, confidence and most importantly he made me feel better about myself. My case went on for over a year and I must admit that I did struggle with how far I should challenge my case. Throughout this period Bill and his paralegal assistant Michelle were extremely responsive in answering any of my questions and keeping me informed on the status of my case. After seeing Bill Powers dominating presence in court I would tell you to NEVER GIVE UP if Bill tells you that you have a case. It is very challenging to convey how impressive Bill was in court. His knowledge concerning DUI laws, traffic stop procedures and sobriety testing were amazing. He provided video of the intersection where the traffic stop had taken place, which certainly helped win my case. In fact after presenting my case, one of his peers in the courtroom actually said to him, "I was taking notes." Based upon Bill's compelling, aggressive representation, the Superior Court Judge dismissed my case. My family and I are extremely grateful to Bill . I was proud to have him as my attorney. Thank you Bill and Michelle for being there during a very stressful time in my life!

Outstanding Servics

Bill clear a traffic ticket for me with no issue and settled it in lest than 2 days. I did not even need to appear in court and only after a ten minute conversation was the issue solved. He was outstanding to work with and will use him again.
