Do not retain this lawyer

We hired Mr Hefley and he said he would speak to the state prosecutors office to get the charges dropped, he never did, before we paid him, he answered our calls, once he was paid, he rushed us off the phone as fast as he could , was not a good experience

Railroaded

I hired this attorney to represent me . He did not! Instead he gave me a paper to sign that I was guilty. And this was after I paid him $3000.00. He never educated me to the law or how he was going to fight for me as not guilty. He condemned me before the prosecutor did. He had to be forced by the... judge to come to court to stand besides me. Beware!

Not happy

I have a very bad experience with this lawyer. After I contacted him for my case he called me twice a day to ask me when I will come to his office to pay him because he wants to start my case. I went to him payed full amount after that anytime I call him he say he will call me back and never call b...ack. And I have no information about the case. Every time I have court the date change with out tell me for 4 time in a year. For the fourth time he don't change it he don't show he do not call. The judge have to call him. And he tells the judge he forgot. I finally hired someone else he got my money for doing nothing.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I wholeheartedly endorse William Hefley, based upon his legal competence, diligence and intelligence, as an attorney. I had the pleasure of working with Bill at the State Attorney's office when he and I were both prosecutors. He has very persausive trial skills. Bill is a great oratorian and presents an excellent case to a jury. He is meticulous in his case preparation and research, and is never caught off guard. Since becoming a defense attorney, Bill uses his extensive knowledge of prosecution to great advantage in defending his clients."
