Caring people

Grant and Grace with Altman's legal group are two of the most caring people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Thank you for what you did for me.

Bill Altman, attorney who is professional and ethical

After my accident, I was experiencing a constant headache and neck/shoulder pain. Because of the headache, I could not concentrate or think straight. Paperwork was coming in from insurance companies asking me to sign and return the paperwork. The forms and papers appeared very important but I didn...'t really know what I would be signing. So, in an effort to think about myself and concentrate on "getting well", I decided to contact Bill Altman. After our initial consultation, I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. It took @ six months to recover but at least I did not have to be concerned with insurance companies and papers. Mr. Altman and his staff took care of everything for me. His assistant, Grace O'Neal was so gracious and gathered all of the information he needed to take care of my accident. I highly recommend William Altman. He is professional and ethical.

Motorcycle Accident

Mr. Altman is the best lawyer my family has ever hired. He is straightforward and works for you. Mr. Altman settled my case in about two and a half months which is no time for the incident I was in. Anytime he heard news from the other corporations he would call me within the same day and he always r...eturns your phone calls as soon as possible. I am very satisfied how everything worked out and in the short amount of time it took.

Car accident - other driver at fault

He took the time and guided me thru all the different doctors and specialist that I needed to see. He went above and beyond what we had expected. He took on all the stress and also guided me thru how to handle the bills by giving them to him and he took care of them. In the end we ended up with 3x... the amount we thought we were going to have!!He deserves 20 gold stars.

Attorney performance

I was injured in an automobile accident and the responsible party would not take responsibility for his negligence. I contacted Mr. Altman and he negotiated a successful settlement with the other party's insurance company. He negotiated an acceptable settlement with my insurance company under the und...erinsured section of my insurance policy. He communicated very well and worked diligently in a timely and professional manner. If I were to need an attorney in the future, I would most certainly call Mr. Altman.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
