Very Professional
After a nasty accident Will was great walking us through the entire process. Keep me advised of any issues that arose. I would recommend Will to any of my family or friends. He absolutely get results and works hard to bring justice to those who can’t speak for themselves. Thank you Will!

Great Lawyer!
I had a great experience with will. He got me a settlement that I would never have got on my own. Excellent communication every step of the way. I would definitely recommend him, and will use his services again if I ever need them.

Fast and to the point
Mr. Nefzger represented me on a trip and fall case. The settlement I received was a good one and his office kept me up to date on any new changes. I would definitely use him again and refer him and his office to friends and family.

Accident Settlement
I hired Mr. Nefzger to represent my children when their father was hit and killed on his motorcycle. He was professional and efficient. He answered all of my questions thoroughly, and was very prompt about returning calls and emails. The settlement he secured for my children was more than fair, and the attorney fee was completely reasonable. I would highly recommend Mr. Nefzger.

A lawyer who goes above and beyond the expected!
When I was in rehabilitation, I called several lawyers, and no one would listen to my story. Will was the first I called that listened and cared. Plus, he was excited to take on my case and he always kept me informed.
