William Benito Fortino

Bill was referred to me as my attorney in my divorce from another attorney friend. Bill handled my case professionally and exceeded my expectations. Bill clearly laid out an excellent plan in the beginning with a very specific outcome, and kept me very well informed and updated along the way. As a re...sult, Bill achieved that plan which was in my favor. I highly recommend Bill Fortino.

Bill Fortino has been my lawyer for 5 years now and has continuously been amazing, no matter what issue arises or when, he always makes himself available and provides sound legal advice. As a defendant being taken to court in 2016/2017 over a child custody issue (which we won), to years later as a pl...aintiff going through mediation in 2021 (which we resolved, avoiding court), he continued to work extremely hard for me being involved and was always one step ahead. He even saved me money! I have always felt reassured and he always gave me honest answers and advice. He is very personable and knowledgeable and truly cares about his clients and their situation. I will continue to use him and recommend him to anyone going through family court/custody issues. He has been the most amazing lawyer and works extremely hard for you to resolve issues without causing unnecessary stress!

I had to have a child custody change due to my ex becoming involved in making Porn. Bill helped me get visitation drastically reduced and under safe guidelines so my son never went back to the toxic environment. He was always prepared for my case. He knew how important my child's life was. He was always realistic about what the possible outcomes from court were. My current husband is active duty military and even when my ex tried to use that in court against us Bill fought to prove how it didn't matter. Bill is an amazing attorney can't recommend him enough.

I am active duty military stationed in El Paso, TX who was referred to Bill by the Fatherhood Coalition in Columbia, SC. This was in regards to not being afforded an opportunity to see my son in over a year. Bill went to work immediately to provide some relief. Bill is a methodical thinker who has ...a calm demeanor when it comes to strategically prosecuting cases. My case was highly contested and there were times where I felt hope was an understatement. Bill reassured me otherwise through our correspondence and phone calls. I am pleased with my choice in hiring Bill as my attorney in my joint child custody/visitation case. I have since been able to reconnect with my son through phone communication and facetime along with taking my son to Disneyworld for Christmas break. Bill fees are reasonable as this is a critical time financially for anyone going through this. He understands, and he is compassionate to your concerns. Tammy his legal assistant is awesome! She keeps me informed of court dates due to traveling long distance so I can properly plan my trip accordingly. Tammy works tirelessly behind to scenes to keep the case moving forward. Bill thanks to all you do and continue to do in regards to prosecuting and settling my case.

Bill Fortino came highly recommended to me by a family member who works in the courthouse. Who better to get advice from than someone who sees lots of attorneys daily, and knows which ones are most successful? I'm so thankful for the referral! Bill was honest, up front, and patient. He put me at ease..., was available when I needed him, and answered all my questions throughout the process. He told me what he thought would happen, so I knew what to expect. Bill was thorough and well prepared when we went to court- much more than the opposing counsel- and it paid off for me. I actually ended up coming out better than what was anticipated, based on my personal circumstances. I credit that victory to the grace of God, and a good attorney! I've been happy to recommend Bill to others who've needed excellent legal counsel. In addition to his top notch professional services, he's a good guy who truly cares about his clients. I feel blessed to have had Bill Fortino on my side.
