William Crantford is an amazing attorney!

I didn’t have to search for an attorney, I was referred to him and I am so glad I was. He took the stress away from my situation and made my case a breeze. Call William, you won’t be disappointed!

Attention to detail and a great advocate

From the beginning, William has been patient in listening to my concerns, responding to them, and advising me in the best course of action, both in a rental dispute and a contract agreement! He is communicative, thorough in documentation, and generally a wonderful service provider, but beyond that... his close attention to a case makes me feel taken care of and protected during maneuvering through the sometimes intimidating waters of the judicial system.

Traffic Violation

I hired William Crantford to help me with a traffic violation. He was always very prompt in answering my questions and kept me up to date on any changes that were happening with my case. He always had time for me and made me feel like I was in good hands. He dealt with the traffic ticket penalty and... the traffic court in a timely manner.

Incredible lawyer

William is professional, has excellent communication, and takes care of business. He was able to rectify an issue that a previous lawyer had messed up from years before in a timely manner. I highly recommend his services!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
