Great lawyer! Easy to work with.

I called Mr Morian when I found out I possibly had a couple of warrants out for my arrest. He was able to quickly confirm that information and advised me to come turn myself in and we would start working on my cases. I did as he told me and turned myself in and the sheriff's department put a hold on ...me and blocked me from making bond that morning. By noon that same day Bill was there at the jail and was able to get my bond set and I was able to get out that afternoon. He and his team were great to work with through the whole process. They explained everything they were doing and kept me in the loop with what was going on every step of the way. Best of all he did exactly what he said he was going to do . I recently had both of my cases dismissed without prejudice. Thanks Bill you are great to work with. I encourage anyone reading this to hire Bill he will get the job done right!

I couldn’t be more thankful!

I was arrested in Jasper County on a felony controlled substance charge after being pulled over for having a headlight out. I’ve never been in trouble for anything in my entire life and I live hours from Jasper County. I was in severe emotional distress and honestly didn't have the first idea about w...hat to do. I called the smartest person I know, and then he called the smartest lawyer he knew, and that lawyer recommended I call William (Bill) Morian - and I am so happy that I did! Bill met me and my mom about 30 min from my house instead of having me drive hours to his office. He didn’t have to do that. He was on time, paid our tab and gave the waitress a great tip. His assistant Amy helped me many times and is incredibly sweet. I was just informed a few days ago that my charges have been dropped! I cannot say enough good things about Bill! Him and Amy were both very empathetic towards me and having them to turn to during such a disaster made everything a lot less stressful. I would definitely recommend hiring Bill! He’s the best!

Look no further - Bill is impressive!

Our LLC was named in error in a wrongful death suit and we had 20 days to file a response with the court. Our initial attorney was not responding to calls or emails, and when he finally did after two weeks - he actually laughed and said not to worry about responding that we were just overreacting, ...not to do anything that the Plaintiffs lawyer would take care of it. Really??? We researched on our own and believed that if we did not file a response timely we could stand to lose all of our assets by default judgment. We were approaching a holiday weekend, with only 7 days remaining to respond to the court. We contacted a family friend to see if he knew an attorney that we could get a second opinion from quickly. That is how we were introduced to Bill - the gates of heaven opened and the angels sang! He calls, he texts, he emails - it is downright impressive. He affirmed that we were right in our concerns. Our first contact with Bill was on 5/28 - two days later on 5/30 he made sure that our LLC was removed from the lawsuit and provided us with documentation filed through the court. It just doesn't get any better! Bill had never met us but he jumped right in and resolved everything in 2 days. His staff is just as impressive, very courteous and dedicated to taking care of your needs. We have found our attorney, it is a good feeling to have. Thanks Bill!

Bill Morian Review

Mr. Morian has helped my family with three legal issues over the past several years. Each time he has helped I have been more impressed with what he was able to accomplish. Not that I doubted his ability but the situations were somewhat involved and carried serious consequences. The last situa...tion involved a court appearance. Even though Mr. Morian had negotiated a VERY acceptable agreement we were required to appear in court. Needless to say I was nervous about what to expect. We were to meet Mr. Morian at 9 - he walked in the courtroom door at 8:45. His punctuality underscores his commitment to success ESPECIALLY after noticing how many attorneys did not appear for their clients. The situation was resolved completely and to my complete satisfaction. The agreement in the previous situation required a good amount of follow up paperwork. Mr. Morian's staff made sure we took care what was expected. Emails and phone calls were sent from his office as needed. Seemingly a rarity in today's world, Mr. Morian will actually return your phone call within 24 hours of your call to him.

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.
