This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Skillful Real Estate and Trial Attorney

My husband and I had a dispute with the neighbor regarding conflicting surveys of the common line between our properties and the unlawful taking of trees on our land. Mr. Furtado was incredible. Not only was he able to navigate through two separate trials, both ending in our favor, he was also able t...o remain composed and professional over a significant period of time when dealing with a difficult opponent and his attorney. Mr. Furtado was well-prepared at every meeting, deposition and trial and his fees were fair. I was impressed with his attention to detail and his understanding of Michigan law and our case in particular. He did an outstanding job for us.

former client

Will is not only an excellent attorney but an equally decent person. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again (we did so twice). He is a fine trial attorney and I know that from experience since I am a retired trial attorney.

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.
