Traffic accident

Was headed home from work when a car pulled across 2 lanes in front of me. The person in the car had been drinking. I hired Mr. Underhill to represent me. He was compassionate, kept me up to date on any activity on my case, was sensitive to my injuries and remained professional through out. I knew I was in excellent hands and would recommend him to family and friends. Will definantly use him again if the need arises.

Bill Underhill has our back

Posted by

Our son got himself into some legal trouble. Without Bill Underhill’s representation he most definitely would have spent some time in jail and had a criminal record. I knew Bill would do his very best for our son and he did. He got the absolute best outcome we could have hoped for. No jail time and no criminal record as long as he stays out of trouble. We are so greatful and blessed to have an excellent friend and attorney we know we can count on. Bill Underhill has got our back.

Underhill did the best I could have asked for. All my stress went out the door with him as my lawyer. He did everything he said he would do and more. I would highly recommend him to anybody that wants the best offer or result. I will use him from here on out anytime I need him.

criminal case

Posted by

We hired Mr. Underhill last minute for my husband and he took care of getting my husband through his case. If it hadn't of been for him things would have turned out nasty with my husbands case. Mr. Underhill took the time to talk with us, get us through a hard situation and still be in contact with us after the case was done. I know my husbands case was in good hands and I trusted Mr. Underhill. Highly Highly recommend him and will always go back to use him again if we ever have to hire a lawyer again. Thank you Mr. Underhill for everything and God Bless You.

Mr. Underhill is a very professional and caring lawyer. He delivered exactly what he said he would in helping me get a vandalism charge dismissed. In addition, if I ever need expert legal advice, Mr. Underhill will be my first option.

Satisfied Client

I contacted Mr. Underhill after a DUI. Having never been in any kind of legal situations, I wasn't sure what to expect. Bill was very clear in explaining what to expect and everything he would do to pertaining to my situation. He handled every step of the process, making sure I understood what to expect next. I was very satisfied with the outcome and highly recommend Mr. Underhill to anyone needing professional legal leadership!

Lindsey Ralston, Criminal defense Attorney on Jan 13, 2021
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Mr. Underhill is not only a very effective and highly skilled attorney, but his compassion for others and unwavering integrity make it a privelege and an honor to work with him on a case. He treats others with respect, even if they may not be on his side...He is also an excellent mentor, and is always willing to help out other attorneys. I would highly recommend him for any criminal law or family law matters in the Robertson County area.
