This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Very disappointed

Very congenial when I met with him to discuss a revocable living trust. However, despite my efforts to contact him via phone, texts, and e-mails over several months, I never heard from him.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Bill Fix was willing to help and listen when others wouldnt

Mr. Fix was willing to look into and help me regarding my grandmothers estate. While I had trouble getting others to help or even listen, Mr. Fix actually took the time to look into the situation. He was willing to help sort out what was going on. He went above and beyond and helped me get answers. H...is assistance helped give me some closure and provided some much needed details into all that had occured. If I had been able to move forward I undoubtedly would of hired Mr. Fix.

Poor communication

I hired Bill to help me with a probate case. He was very attentive at first but with time he began to not return my calls, emails and letters sent in the mail. I’ve called him for the last 6 months trying to get probate closed and he won’t even provide an excuse for the lack in communication. I’ve p...aid him in full, which I guess was my mistake.

Personable touch that every one wishes they had in their attorney.

We’ve used several attorneys over the last 10 years and bill has completely changed our perspective on what an attorney is to their client. He’s professional, personable, his consultations are in depth, he has never left any advice off the table and has always left us confident before each case. Bil...l has a passion for his clients and our family has him to thank for where we are.

Professional and Courteous

Due to recent health issues that have impaired me, Bill assisted me with POA paperwork. During a stressful time in my life, Bill was able to put me at ease. He explained the process and how it works in a clear manner that I was able to understand. We never know what curveballs life may throw at us, b...ut no matter what is thrown at us, Bill will help you stay in the ballgame.

  • 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.
