DUI Reduced to Reckless Driving
I hired Bill to represent me for a DUI, and because of his knowledge and working on my behalf I was able to plead down to reckless driving, with no points on my license, and only 6 months probation. I couldn’t have hoped for a better outcome for my situation, and I highly recommend hiring Bill.
William Starr Hardman Jr.'s Lawyer Endorsements
"I enthusiastically endorse this lawyer. Bill is a smart, hard working, serious lawyer who understands his practice area as well as anyone in the state. Bill cares about his clients, thoroughly investigates all of his cases, and obtains incredible results. He is respected by the courts and by his peers because of the kind of lawyer he is, and because of his character."
"I truly enjoy seeing Bill around the courthouses in the metro area. He is incredibly knowledgable in the area of criminal defense, especially DUI law. I will openly admit that he walked me through my first solo ALS hearing in Gwinnett. It was something that a lot of attorneys probably wouldn't have had the time or patience for and I believe it speaks volumes about his character. That same type of knowledge, character and willingness to go the extra mile is evident in how he goes about representing his clients at all stages of a case. I strongly endorse Bill Hardman and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone in need of a superb DUI attorney."
"I have known Bill both personally and professionally for over 20 years and know him to be an intelligent, honest and hard working person. His ability to combine quick and critical thinking makes him a formidable attorney and one that I would endorse to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney in the Atlanta area."
"Bill is a hardworking and honest man. He is dedicated to serving the needs of his clients. I will gladly refer clients to him. I endorse this lawyer."
"I know Bill to be a hard working and intelligent attorney who truly cares about the outcome of his client's cases. I've seen him in court and worked with him on cases. He is capable of turning on the charm to close a deal or putting on his armor to gear up for a fight. Simply put, Bill has a way of communicating effectively with prosecutors and police officers to get what he wants. The results he obtains for his clients speak for themselves."
