An Absolute Professional

W. Gray Smith was absolutely amazing. He did a wonderful job of walking me through my legal process and answering all of my questions thoroughly and patiently. I was so appreciative that he checked in with me periodically as a matter of courtesy to make sure I was doing alright and had no additional ...questions. He did his research and made a tricky and specialized situation come together. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Superb Results, Excellent Service

Will Gray is a lawyer's lawyer. As a practicing attorney myself, my one pet peeve are attorneys that fail to respond to calls and correspondence. Will is the opposite - he promptly returns all calls and emails and in detailed fashion. Will also got all of my charges dismissed, in no small part due... to his close relationships with Assistant District Attorneys. I will recommend him moving forward, and I will use him again.

Outstanding Attorney

First off Gray is the most reliable & reassuring attorney I've ever met. He literally saved my butt & got my assault case dismissed. I had experience working at the Public Defense and I know how bad some lawyers can be. I had an assault case that was pretty serious. A week before my case I called Mas...on & Mason on a Saturday afternoon letting them know my situation, I gave the secretary my number since it was the weekend and no one was there. Within two minutes after hanging up with the secretary at Mason and Mason, I got a call from Gray. On a Saturday afternoon! I told him my situation and just over the phone Gray seemed confident that he will be able to dismiss my case. We scheduled a meeting for that Monday and he was so reassuring and confident that he will get it dismissed. (All for free consultation) I immediately retained him as my lawyer that same day. I did shop around before that and not one lawyer even considered dismissal they were telling me a year probation or more. Gray was the only one who reassured me that he is confident we can dismiss this case for me. Well my court date was today 5/7 and I got it dismissed. He reassured me the whole time in the court room it'll be okay. I was speechless at how great he handled my case, I didn't have to say or do anything but sign a paper for dismal. Unbelievable I thanked him a million times. I also want to mention he will literally answer every call, text or email immediately. Even on a Sunday night. He is very reliable and cares about each case he has. If I ever need an attorney again (hopefully not) I am call William Gray Smith without a doubt.
