Trusted, Compassionate, Expert Negotiator

Divorce is a stressful and disruptive time for families. Bill was my trusted advisor throughout my divorce process. I had the utmost confidence in knowing he had the level of expertise and compassion I expect of someone advocating on my behalf. Bill’s keen negotiating skills were important piece o...f the process leading to a positive outcome for my children and me. Accessible and responsive throughout the process, it is clear that Bill has the best interest of his client in mind, keeping me informed along the way, we were able to reach a settlement within the timeframe I expected/requested. I have since referred several individuals to Bill.

Effective, Confident, Compassionate

Divorce is a sad, scary and often paralyzing time in life. Bill was the champion I needed in all of these areas. Bill has a razor sharp legal mind and is appropriately aggressive when necessary. But all of this is underscored by the compassion he exudes. Whereas my divorce was quite complicated, it w...as resolved quickly and effectively. I was determined to end the turmoil and move to a point where my family could begin to heal. Bill knew the exact steps to make that happen while determinedly advocating on my behalf. I was very pleased by the outcome of my divorce and have since confidently referred several individuals to him, all of whom have been happy as well.
