Just the Best!

I am so happy that I had Mr. Swank as my attorney. I received a ticket for an accident that was not my fault. There was not any contact with my car. The ticket was a civil and criminal matter. I called the right one to handle this case. Mr. Swank and his team were knowledgeable and took care of ...everything from gathering all the information and being stellar in the courtroom. We won our case and I received no points on my license. Mr. Swank cares and he will do his best to not only fight for your case, but he is patient and thorough in all that he does. I was a mess and scared because I am a teacher and was concerned about my license, but Mr. Swank took everything in account and did what was best. He would say trust me and this is not his first rodeo!! He is just the best and I thank God for him, his professionalism, and his awesome team. Thank you so much Mr. Swank. Jennifer G.

A True Miracle-worker

I hired Mr. Swank almost 3 years ago when my incident first occurred, and I have been nothing short of astonished and impressed at how amazing he is. Mr. Swank is so accommodating, and he truly cares about his clients. He worked so hard to fight this for me, and we ended up receiving the results we w...ere working toward. My case had been a constant weight on my shoulders for the past few years, but Mr. Swank put his expertise to work so that I can live my life without constant worry. I would recommend Mr. Swank a million times over and cannot thank him enough for everything he has done! He does not disappoint!

Far exceeded expectations for DUI representation

Mr. Swank was recommended to me by another attorney who's opinion I greatly respect, so my expectations started out fairly high, yet they were exceeded. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of the services I received on my case and with the personal attention and professionalism Mr. Swank bro...ught to my DUI case. I would unequivocally recommend Mr. Swank to represent anyone in my family or circle of friends. He is a very compassionate and capable advisor!

I am grateful

I am grateful for all the help I received from Mr. Swank. I was just a number for the Justice system. I haven't felt like a number next to Mr. Swank. I especially appreciated his empathy and trusted him immediately. He has excellent lawyer skills and he is highly respected in Court.

High Quality and Caring

As a trial attorney myself, I wanted the best criminal defense attorney for my 19 year old son. Bill was not only intelligent and strategic about the optimal outcome but, more importantly, truly cared about my son and was able to relate to him in a way that will hopefully impact my son's future in a ...positive way. AND Bill accomplished the exact outcome we had hoped for in a reasonable timeframe. It was truly valuable to have the peace of mind throughout the entire process that Bill was handling everything for us. He was well-known and respected by other attorneys and the judge. Bill brings honor to our profession and humanity to his clients.

Personal injury lawyer | Mar 14

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have had occasion to see Billy Swank in court representing clients in both personal injury matters and in matters of criminal defense. Billy knows no boundaries to zealous representation of his client. His manner in front of judges and juries is one in which each sees his view and understands his clear, concise presentation of facts and argument. His dealings with opposing counsel are professional yet firm. To be clear, Billy advocates and obtains not just the results his clients desire, but those that he desires which more often than not exceed his own clients wants. If in the ring, I would want Billy in my corner, or not at all in the ring! I endorse William Swank!"
