I would highly recommend Mr. Blanchard to anyone that is seeking extraordinary legal representation. Mr. Blanchard and his staff exemplified how consummate professionals conduct themselves on a daily basis. The amount of dignity, compassion and the professionalism I was treated with during a difficult time in my life is a testament to his life's work and I am forever grateful for it.
Mr. Blanchard was very tentative and has a very helpful staff. He helped through one of the hardest and most emotional times in my life with pure professionalism. The grace that this man has in the court room is respected by all judges and other attorneys. If your looking for someone who can provide you with all the information that you may need in a reasonable amount of time this is your guy. He walked me through the process of custody hearings prepped me and planned the next move. Little problems that I had after the case was closed he was able to answer some question and continued to be helpful.

Response from William BlanchardAugust 5, 2016
I spoke with this client and confirmed that he had intended to use the word "attentive" instead of "tentative" in the first line of his review. He gave me his permission to post this clarification. I thank him for taking the time to give me this review.

Representation of My Adult Son
My husband and I hired William Blanchard to defend our adult son in a homicide case. My son suffers from a serious mental illness, and was in need of an experienced attorney. We were referred to Mr. Blanchard and consulted with him on my son’s case. After hiring him to represent our son, he immediately began appropriate steps to address my son’s illness in relation to the crime of which he was accused. He brought in a forensic psychologist immediately to evaluate my son which was an important part of his defense. Mr. Blanchard provided an excellent defense resulting in a verdict that was the appropriate verdict for my son’s condition. Since my son’s verdict, Mr. Blanchard has followed his progress through the mental health system, and has represented him at all court proceedings. In addition to his professional services, Mr. Blanchard has displayed compassion to my son and to us as we have progressed through this very difficult situation. I consider Mr. Blanchard to be an excellent attorney, and a wonderful person. I would never hesitate to recommend Mr. Blanchard without reservation to anyone seeking representation.
