Very Good Attorney

William helped me tremendously with my case. The charges that were against me were dismissed and now I can live without the stress of the allegations over my head. Thank you.

Successful Reduction of my Charge

Mr. Hanlon was extremely professional in handling by DUI case. His office was very helpful in answering all my questions. I was so pleased when he reduced my charge from a DUI to Reckless Driving. It was a weight off my shoulders. I would highly recommend him for any DUI case based on his high succes...s rate in reducing the charges. Thanks again Mr. Hanlon

What is Freedom Worth to You?

Despite my incredibly delicate situation, not once did Will Hanlon exhibit anything but the upmost confidence in my position, as well as my case. My exwife, who initially became my wife through a court house union after lying about a pregnancy, confessed to having made false rape accusations against ...another member in the military. His investigation was current at the time of her confession. Already feeling trapped with the marriage by her threats to make false accusations against me if I ever attempted to leave her, I found the confession to be a perfect exit. I told her that not only would I not stay with her, but that I would report her for the false rape accusation against the other military member, if she did not come clean herself. She was prompt in going to the military to report false accusations against me. After a thorough investigation, the military not only dropped the investigation against me, but opened one against her. The day that this happened, my exwife went to the civilian police to file an official report, this time with a significantly more dramatic and violent false accusation, presenting self-inflicted cut marks, which she performed in front of me one night with a piece of glass she picked up after breaking a wine glass, blaming me for her behavior. "I shall finally be worth something to you in my death, since you certainly do not value me alive. Perhaps you will appreciate my life insurance," she exclaimed while while cutting herself. However, her claim to the police was that I was responsible for the wounds on her leg. I was arrested and charged with three felonies. Will never hesistated about the validity of my claim, nor did he ever seem concerned with the strength of our case, and to which outcome it would eventually lead. He did, however, acknowldege the severity of the claim and was incredible with keeping both my parents and I informed with the progression of the case. I found out a little over a week ago that his due deligience and thorough understanding of the law led to the DA choosing to throw out all three felony charges before ever taking the case to court. Hiring a good Criminal Defense attorney can be expensive, but at the end of the day, a life unmarred by a criminal record far outweighs any monetary expenses.

Excellent attorney

Mr. Hanlon has the confidence and experience you need when dealing with possible criminal charges. He was able to get a no file for the charges. My son was facing serious charges that would have impacted the rest of his life. He is immediately responsive and very available for questions or concern...s.

Highly Recommended Attorney

I was charged with, solicitation to commit lewd and lascivious conduct and transmission of harmful material. I contact Mr. Hanlon, and hired him immediately. I can/could not stress enough the amount of stress and worry that this case caused me. Mr. Hanlon settled that stress and got the charges lowe...red, without having to do any jail/prison time. It is a very scary process for someone who has never been convicted of a crime. -Thank you Mr. Hanlon for revealing that stress, and handling these 2 charges! Highly recommended! I truly appreciate all your help!
