Posted by Duilio | July 10, 2016 | Contracts & Agreements

Concise, available, and on point

We dealt with Bill on a fairly simple, yet unfrequent issue: seller refused to release 15k in earnest money after cancellation of contract. The issue? Paperwork reached seller at 5:06pm instead of the 5:00pm deadline. I sent Bill copies of all docs, set up chronologically by me. He interpolated with... advice and found all possible contract loopholes. Then recommended that I, the buyer, write the seller pointing out the faults of the contract, and that they would likely end up having to release the funds, plus fork-out all additional costs - likely a few thousand each. Worked like a charm. As Tony Soprano would say: baddabim-baddaboom. His final bill wasn't exorbitant either. Def-rec!

Family lawyer | Sep 13

Relationship: Co-worker

"Bill is one of many law partners I have had during my many years of practicing law; however, he is the only present or former law partner to whom I refer my clients when they are involved in a divorce or have other family law matters....not because he is my partner, but because he is the best lawyer I know for the representation. He consistently handles each family law matter with the compassion and professionalism to which my clients are entitled and expect. I recommend Bill without reservation."

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.
