Best Decision I Made
Hired Mr Breedlove to represent me in a divorce. He got what I asked of him done at a very reasonable cost. I recommend him to anyone that asks me about an attorney.

Avoid!
Not only is he a higher-charging attorney in the area, he created a special, extra-high rate for my case because it was going to require some nights and weekends, according to him. Not good value.
He literally took months to respond to some emails and phone call attempts. It's hard to believe an attorney is legally allowed to be this unresponsive. By doing absolutely nothing, he wasted an entire year of my daughter's life as she is bounced around between baby sitters not seeing her father, me. He did not put forth one iota of effort in my fight to get more time with my daughter.
Here's the worst part: he waited until right before the trial to withdraw. Again, it's hard to believe an attorney is legally allowed to do this, to sabotage his own client's case so badly.
If you are a father in a tough divorce case, avoid William Breedlove.
