Truly has a heart to help people

I brought a case for my 18 year old son to Mr. Mason for a consultation. My son has Asperger's and had gotten arrested for spitting on a Police Officer, which is a felony charge. Mr. Mason called me 2 times and spoke with me about steps I could take to get the charges against my son dropped. Each pho...ne call lasted 45 minutes to an hour. He listened to everything I told him and offered extremely valuable advice for me to take in this manner. He then had me come to his office and spent 2 hours gathering more information and explaining the best course of action for a stating point. I asked him in both phone calls and while in his office how muvh would.he require to take this case. He generously said he wanted me to follow the steps he suggested and if I could not get the charges dropped, we would then discuss payment amounts. Mr. Mason is a criminal lawyer, and as such, gets the very high profile cases. I knew it would cost a considerable amount to take the case. I followed his instruments exactly as he had explained to me. My son has many issues and already stuggles functioning in society. Jail was not where he needed to be. I am so blessed to say that with his guidance we did get all the charges dismissed. Mr. Mason received no monetary benefit for all his help. His heart was dedicated to helping my son because he chose to, without personal gain. I would recommend Mr. Mason to anyone needing a lawyer that cares about you as person and will stand up for you for the best possible outcome.

Excellent Criminal Defense Lawyer (DWI)

I retained Bill Mason to defend me for a DWI charge. Trust me when I tell you that this was not a simple "over the legal limit" offense. I mad a poor choice, and Bill helped me through the scariest time of my live. He was extremely patient, nonjudgmental, honest and knowledgeable about the kind of ...defense I needed. He did not over promise, and he delivered beyond my expectations. He kept me calm and informed throughout the process. I got an amazing plea deal with some community service, a low fine and no jail time. Even after my case was concluded in February, I have still been able to follow up and get additional advice and assistance from Bill. He truly cares about his clients. I highly recommend him if you need a defense attorney.

One of the best!

I called Bill about my Offences before needing his expertise, and he Has been there for me and my family ever since, even after it was all said and done. I can still pick up the phone and he gives me advise and direction. I Truly believe he managed to give me a second chance in this unforgiving world... we live in. My Wife and I met with him and together we got the results we were hoping for. I suggest you be very honest up front with him, and he will lay out the cards you have to deal with. He is very honest and he has been around. His experience was very evident every time we had a question. His know how in the court rooms never seized to amaze me. My court appearances were very fast and tolerable, the only time I was really scared was when he wasn't there (running late from another case). Thanks Bill mason!

The best plus most trustworthy Lawyer I've ever dealt with. If you want to have a good chance hire Mr.Mason.

Mr. Mason is a straight shooting lawyer who will tell you the truth then try and figure the best route in order to get an outcome that he can get through to the D.A. And one your happy with. Mr..Mason is also a very good trail lawyer if you decide to go that route. He's like a doctor in the sense... he tells you what could happen and how he can fix the problem. Mr.Mason would always call me back no matter where in the U.S. To answer a question. Last but certainly not least I wish I had him on my first case. He did nothing less than perform a miracle to get my life back. He's a Christian and a great person. Instead of getting my case pushed back he got it moved up. He's by far the best out there. He literally set me free as a person.

Having worked around Bill Mason in the same community for many years, I can say without hesitation that he is the best trial lawyer that I have ever had the privilege of knowing. He is highly esteemed and admired by his fellow attorneys, who frequently seek him out for advice and counsel on complex legal issues and questions concerning trial strategy. I have seen Bill Mason try many complex criminal cases to juries, and his knowledge and skill in the courtroom always astounds me. In my opinion, you won't find an attorney who is more competent, more knowledgeable, more ethical, and more experienced as Attorney Bill Mason."
