Best Family Lawyer in South Carolina!

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!

Best attorney

Bill Fortino in Lexington Sc is the best attorney hands down. If you need a family law attorney he is your guy. Super calm, is always available to talk and answer my questions. Lots of experience he is amazing. His law firm doesn't even advertise because they get by with word of mouth. So please call... him if you need help. He does free consults. I interviewed seven attorneys before I picked him. He is ranked the number one attorney in Lexington SC. He travels all across SC so please contact him if you have legal needs each of his partners are specialized and practice only one area of law. 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.

Very Proficient and Outstanding Child Custody Attorney

For the last one and a half years, I have had the pleasure of having Mr. Fortino as my attorney. He is a true advocate to represent you legally in the court. During my treacherous plight through Family Court in California and South Carolina, I had to fight for custody, after a divorce, for my son. F...ortunately, I won the case in California for partial custody and a judgment was rendered. Ultimately, I moved to South Carolina and what appeared to be a simple transfer case transformed into a complex legal finagle. Various attorneys attempted to sort through the legalities of my case; however, when Attorney Bill Fortino agreed to represent me through my legal case, it was apparent that his professionalism and dedication would lend itself positive results for me. Not only was he very diligent and persistent, he continuously kept me informed on my case and dedicated many endless hours to ensuring positive results. Mr. Fortino exceeded my expectations by winning a judgement to include several things, other attorneys had told me were far fetched. If you are looking for an attorney who will fight endlessly for you and not charge an astronomical fee, I highly recommend Attorney Fortino.
