Saving Grace

Will helped me in a situation that seemed hopeless for me. Between helping me in court and answering any and all questions when i called him. I'll definitely use this lawyer in the future if need be and would recommend to anyone. Thank you so much Will!

My silver lining

Will Tippens was my absolute saving grace in a nightmare scenario I needed to get through. I was lucky enough to have him by my side during the end of a very difficult time and scenario in my, now past. It was my first time having to go to court or any type of legal process against me and Will saw me... through and eased my mind each step of the way and with each question I could possibly have. He shows up for you in every aspect, which feels especially nice when you feel alone or lost in the legal spectrum. He shows you he’s genuine not only in the courtroom but as a human being by remembering the details and not making you feel as though you’re just another case to be dealt with. He is strait forward and effective which is almost too good to be true since there is so much to get lost in detail wise. I appreciate all the work and authenticity I received and the relief/justice that was accomplished thanks to Will. I hope to not ever need his help, but count myself very lucky to know I do have the knowledge of where to go. Thank you Will. Truly.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
