Complete waste of time, support crimes by judges

This man had 4 cases with me, didn’t touch any of them for over a year, defamation and threat to sue a judge, both had evidence of being lawful acts, and he wouldn’t file anything, I had to find out with another attorney Raymond Bryant how to search case law, and found this attorney just was supporti...ng a judge harassing me repeatedly. Easiest case, the defamation statement was true with evidence also, and he wouldn’t file anything over a year. This man belongs deported.

Empathetic and a great listener

William actually cared about my case unlike the other lawyers I spoke with. These negative reviews look like they were written by the same person, but just spread out over different time frames. Honestly. The reason I say this, is because both negative reviews have the same grammatical mistakes? Anyw...ay, William is a good guy, is smart, and spent time looking over my motions before speaking with me. He knew a lot about my case before we ever talked. So clearly he goes over paperwork and is thorough.

Worst lawyer ever

I feel for anyone who has faith in this man as an attorney. I learned the hard way, after retaining him myself. He did not review any of the documentation, picture, or even bank information, I provided to help my case. He did zero research on anything himself. Did not prepare for trial at all, and I ...lost nearly everything. He did not complete the deeds that were his responsibility. Then wanted me to retain him again to complete them. I could go on and on about the lack of effort put into anything he did. If I could warn each person to enter his office, I would. I lost my home, and everything I’ve worked for in the last 20 years. My ex husbands attorney even commented, “he’s not the brightest is he?” As my ex kept two sections of land, three motorcycles, a trailer, a boat, and my home I owned prior to my marriage. Thanks for nothing William!

Worst lawyer in the area

I have truly never in my life felt so disgusted as I was having this man as my lawyer. The way he chose not to do his job should be reported to everyone in the state of how poor of a lawyer this man truly is. He did not look at a single piece of my evidence before telling me that I should play out. N...ot one piece. For someone to say that without even looking evidence is disgusting. Stay far far far far far away from him When I told him I wanted to go to trial he literally screamed at me almost tripped over his chair and then was speaking ill of me to the judge after I walked out of the quart room totally inappropriate and totally disgusting
