In my time of need I was looking for an honest, trustworthy and hardworking lawyer. William Ellis proved to be just that. From the very beginning he was so empathetic, friendly, and most of all professional. He handled my case in a timely manner. He was very flexible with the payments. He literally took the stress of my shoulders every single time we met. Walking in to court I would see the stress in peoples eyes. That stress was non existent with me thanks to William I 100% recommend this lawyer.
My case was dismissed all thanks to The G.O.A.T!

He's a pretty cool dude
He gave me a pretty fair grade in my Sacraments and Morality class. Definitely a 10/10 teacher.

A good lawyer
I was not sure who to hire for my DWI case. I feel lucky to have found Mr. Ellis. Although a young lawyer, he has a lot of experience and is very enthusiastic about his work. After the first consultation, I felt that I had found the right person. Through the way he explained and clarified all my questions, and the way he listened, I felt I could put my trust in him. Although the evidence seemed stacked against me, Mr. Ellis investigated every avenue of attack and really fought for me. In the end, I think he secured the best offer under the circumstances. Throughout the case, he patiently answered my questions, understood my concerns, and worked professionally. I appreciate his service and would highly recommend him to those in need.

Excellent Service
I'm a physician in the community of DFW and was faced with a criminal offense. Mr Ellis was very professional and friendly from the outset. He was generous with his time, kept me informed and genuinely cared about my case. He was able to have my case dismissed during the pre trial phase and all records of the charge were erased. He is a master orator with a great legal mind and a highly skilled counselor. I highly recommend Mr Ellis without reservation.

Great lawyer!
In May of 2017, I was arrested and facing a charge that could have had a negative impact on my entire life and my career.
After several consultations, I met and hired William Ellis. He seemed young, but he was professional and knowledgeable about cases such as mine. He was honest and set clear expectations of what I was facing and provided the available options.
Throughout the year, he was responsive and did exactly what he said he’d do. There weren’t any unexpected fees and he was fair and flexible in the payment options.
Just as he said from day one, we got a full dismissal of my case and I am so grateful to have had him fight for me!

Attorney Review
We couldn't ask for anything better service than what we received.. Our daughter had a warrant out for her arrest with felony charges. And with the help from Will Ellis, all charges were dropped within 48 hours. Will has always responded to our calls, text or emails quickly and professionally. We would highly recommend Will Ellis to anyone!
Great job Will Ellis!

Amazing!!!
I hired William to defend me against domestic violence charges. He was very compassionate and professional from the beginning. He was always there for me and I couldn't have made it through the case without him. He is the best criminal defense attorney I have met.

REally Great Lawyer Avery Helpful
I was pending 2 felony charges, he got my case dismissed 100% with no probation classes or jail time. He represented me well and continued to fight for better options until they dismissed the case. He stayed in contact with me throughout the process. He’s real reliable and truthful.

Fantastic Lawyer!
Prompt, Smart, Caring, supportive, and Truthful! Best lawyer I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with and HIGHLY Recommend Hiring!
When I was charged with a misdemeanor of deadly conduct I contacted several lawyers right away for consultation. Mr Ellis got back to me and set up an appointment right away to hear my case and my side and explained to me about these types of cases. After consulting my husband we hired Mr Ellis and I couldn't be happier. He kept me appraised of everything, gave me Realistic time lines, Called me back when I freaked out because my first "appearance" In court had not been set on the day the Police told me or getting a letter from the state that I didn't understand, let me know up front that there would be a lot of wait and see but not to worry he would absolutely contact me when there was any movement on the case. He called and or e-mailed every time anything was set or changed. Knowing my husband and I fell on hard times while we waited between hiring him to fight my case and having to take it to jury trial he worked with me to the best of his ability to give me time to make the payment for the trial. He was Kind, Caring, Supportive and informative. He is often in court in the mornings but makes sure to respond to e-mails and calls in the afternoons and evenings. This is the type of lawyer that Breaks the "stereo Type" of lawyers! He has a heart and a head and if you give ALL information regardless of how it makes you look or sound, regardless of if its relevant He can and will either get you the best deal possible or win your case depending on your circumstances. He always kept me informed of the deals the DA was offering and suggested what he felt would be my best option given my case, in his opinion, that Was to take it to court and not plead out because I was Wrongfully accused and he found the evidence to prove that! I would STRONGLY Recommend Mr. Ellis for anyone seeking a Criminal lawyer even if you are Pleading Guilty or no Contest as he will fight to get you the best deal, or get your case dismissed and he wont lie to you, he will tell you the truth! He let me know about what would happen if we DIDN'T win our case and prepared me for the worst case scenario. I was never not in the know of what was happening and what could happen.
In a few months time I will be hiring Mr. Ellis again to have the arrest expunged from my record and He is providing me information to file my own Civil case against my accusers to try to recoup my costs. He is GREAT!
Thank You Mr. Ellis For being a great person, and a fantastic Lawyer!

My Attny
From the time I called William I was comforted knowing that everything felt under control I was in good hands. When you have a criminal case pending and just turn it over to someone you really don't know, its a little scary. I have had a very good professional experience with Mr. Ellis, and everything in my case was dismissed and now we are going to have the case expunged and it will be like nothing ever happened.

Great lawyer!!!!!
First time i called Mr Ellis i was in a rush to get my Aggravated Assault charge dismissed i had so much in my head and was really worried, nervous, and afraid of the unknown. Mr Ellis took his personal time not only answering all of my question but helping me calm down and knowing that we had to get to it now and he could help me get that case dismissed. I had so much Anxiety knowing it was a serious manner i was dealing with. He would call me every other day to update me on the situation he went to all my court dates...I did not have to show up until the final one. Where i was just sitting down not knowing what will happen. Mr ellis told me everything is going to be fine. And little did i know within 30 minutes Mr ellis came out the court and said its time to celebrate i got your case dismissed I was so happy and full of joy. I thank Mr Ellis so much for what he did i couldn't have asked for a better lawyer if you want a GREAT caring Lawyer without the BS Mr Ellis is the man!

Amazing attorney
I went to four different attorneys before Will , and I was able to make 2 payments for my case. I was also moving to Las Vegas, and I needed the "okay" At the time I had money problems, and he was always understanding about the situation. When Will took my case, he showed up to every court date. He gave me the updates after each court date. The orginal deal was to keep the case on my record, and it'll be dismissed in 3 months . ( in order to get this deal, I had to do 24 of community service) which i did not complete on the deadline due to having a prepaid work schedule. Luckily, Will was able to give me an extension. On my last court date Will told me I was able to get a full dismissal instead of the 3 months dismissal .. he never gave up. I highly recommend this hard working attorney !! Five stars.

Compassionate and Knowledgeable Defender
Being a client of William, we were very pleased with the manner in which he handled a difficult case. He maintained a kind & professional attitude. William also showed compassion during a very stressful time. He was very responsive & thorough in explaining the developments of the case as they were unfolding. I feel William truly went the extra mile to obtain satisfying results. He is an attorney I would definitely recommend. Our heartfelt thanks for all you did!! ......our new "Amigo".

Best criminal attorney
I was arrested for agg assault with deadly weapon I was scared out of my mind didn't know what or who to call came across Will's number on goggle search and from the moment I received a call from Will explaining the process to me I knew he was the man for the job. I still went and met with other attorneys just to make sure I was getting the right one. I didn't speak to any other attorneys at any of the other firms I spoke to the legal assistants they were not as thorough as Will was. I did not feel like they would do the job. I went in for consultation with Will he told me the process and thanks to him he explained how it was extremely important to hire attorney quickly since grand jury would be a few weeks from arrest. I hired him and what I liked best was that I had his cell number not his legal assistants and if I had questions I could call or text him directly he answered pretty quickly. He helped prepare a grand jury packet to show my side of the case instead of just the other persons. Thank God my case was a no bill and I was not indicted. I am very grateful with Will and the team for all their help with making this possible. I would definitely recommend Will he's very knowledgeable in the criminal field. Best attorney out there definitely worth every dollar. I am not the kind of person to write reviews but this was worth writing.

DUI case in Dallas County Texas
Me. Ellis took on my case for the charge against me for DUI. Mr. Ellis thought all along that this was a case that we could win. It was an uphill battle through out the longevity of the charge against me, Mr. Ellis never gave up with the possibility that we would win the case do to contamination on blood evidence on the DUI.
Mr. Ellis kept me informed on a daily or weekly basis though out the pre trial hearing.
Mr. Ellis lifted my head up with his professionalism on s continuous bases when I felt like I was going to loose my career do to the cirmomstances revolving around the charge that was pending against me. Mr. Ellis was always trying to talk to the DAs office to let them know that they were wasting there time trying to proceed with the case against me. Although I never have been in any trouble before and hope that I will never need a criminal defense attorney again, but if I ever did without a dought I would retain and hire Mr. Ellis in a heart beat. From the bottom of my heart I would hire Mr. Ellis because his professionalism and respect ,and dojillious with a job that he did for the entire case and the charge that was pending against me.
Mr. Ellis is a great attorney and deserves all the re-spect and props for the job he did in Dallas,Dallas County Texas.
Thanks to Mr. Ellis I can proceed with my career as a civil process server for the state of Texas without his help my career would've been over.

Dismissed
I reviewed a lot of attorneys, and I am happy I hired Mr. Ellis. I am new to the process of going to court and having to even hire an lawyer. I was scared and I really feared the worst being that I am a single mother with a full time job. I seen my whole world closing in on me but Mr. Ellis was the light. I only had to go to court once which was great because I do have a job. It was so hard for me to put my life in Mr. Ellis hands and let him do his job. So he was able to get my felony case dismissed 7/14/2016 within less than 6 months. I did have to take a online class but that was nothing for my freedom to be with my children. If you are looking for a great attorney William Ellis is the way to go.
