Posted by Scott | February 02, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Hire William Webster Jr.

I hired Bill to do my divorce. From our first meeting, I went from being panicked and concerned to calmed and reassured. Bill walked me through every step of the process, his follow up and response time is second to none, and he and his office made sure I had ever copy of every document I would nee...d without me ever having to request them. The one thing that stood out to me was Bill's competency. When asked a question, he never hesitated with an answer, I never heard "I'll need to look into that," it was clear that he knew what he was doing and that he genuinely was invested in you as a client and wanted the positive outcome as much as you did. There are a lot of reasons people need an attorney, but when it's as personal as a divorce, I can't imagine there being many better than Bill. I truly hope that in my lifetime I never need to hire an attorney for anything else, but one thing is for certain, he will be my first call if I do.
