William Kauper Cheadle

I hired Bill in November 2018 to help get my probation reinstated after a dilute UA landed me in jail for a month. First, he was able to get a bond set after being held on a “no bond hold”. I was facing a motion to revoke. Making bail allowed me the time needed to become compliant with the terms of m...y probation, which eventually resulted in Reinstatement . Bill not only saved me from going to prison but he’s been there for me through a few other legal issues that I needed advice and guidance with as well. He is very good at taking my phone calls and calls back within a reasonable time when he says he will. He cares about his clients well-being and has proven that time and again by his dedication and continued efforts with my case. It’s been about a year and a half since Bill became my attorney and he still puts the same amount of effort and enthusiasm into my case as he did the day I retained him.

William "Bill" Cheadel is is a outstanding attorney and Houston Texas not only does he fight for his clients 110% he also truly cares about his clients about their well-being and their concerns. In 2014 I was locked up I picked up his business card off the floor while cleaning I gave it a long shot c...alled the number and he answered accepted the collect call came and seen me and represented me with no money up front got my 5-year TDCJ sentence reduced a state jail charge and got me 79 days county time. Bill has also represented several of my family members and friends and has gotten the less time and or dismissed cases some of them being repetitive criminals. In 2017 I was also locked up and Bill got both of my felony cases dismissed without me stepping in the courtroom he is the best lawyer in Houston Texas hands down thank you Bill all you've done for me you are the best!!

I paid this guy 4000 .and still owe him 3500.he will never get it.once I paid him some money.he reset my court date for 3 months,while I sat in jail. Absolutely the worst lawyer I've ever come across.very slick with his words.he promised me I was going home from county jail.but instead I went to tdc....he harassed my mother on a daily basis for more money.thats all he cares about is money.not your case.i do not understand how he is legally allowed to be a lawyer. He needs to go to prison. So he knows how it feels to be lied to .He is a sorry human being .karma will handle him eventually.do not use him. Worst attorney in harris county.do not use !

I was arrested in Harris County Texas in January 2017. I have never been in trouble before so I really did not know about the system, attorneys or anything. While I was in jail I was referred by another inmate to an attorney by the name of William Cheadle. What I did not know is that William Chead...le has people in jail who refer cases to him and he puts money on the commissary for them when he gets a case so it is in that person's best interest to say he is a good attorney. In my experience he was anything but a good attorney. I sat in jail for 4 months after I hired him and gave him the money to bond me out before I was bonded out. I made the mistake of giving this guy a power of attorney to work in my best interest. He was to pull out $10,000 for his retainer and my bond money. Instead he spent all of my money without my consent and gave me no defense. When I say all of my money I mean $170,000 dollars. He paid off his house in Conroe, Texas with my money and then avoided me when I found out. I filed a State Bar complaint back in February because he would not return my calls or update me on the status of my case. This man is a crook and he is not to be trusted. He did not ever speak with me about my case. Since he bailed me out, he was to pay my bills and always paid them late and incurred late fees. I fired him in February of 2018 and I still do not have my retainer back from him nor do I have any accounting from him of the money he spent. He owes me at least $150,000 back and that is minus expenses and me giving him some consideration for the very few (less than 10) hours he worked on my case. He has not even tried to justify spending that much money with any documentation or evidence of work he performed. I have nothing to show for my money whatsoever. I hired him in July 2017, he bailed me out on October 31, 2017 and he paid off his house the first week of November 2017. I guess he does not want to tell me how he spent the money; I know anyway because the police have his bank statements. His house was going to be foreclosed on and he needed to come up with the money so I was the guy he duped. The State Bar is now investigating him because of this conduct. He also lied to the court and told them I am indigent and cannot pay for experts when really he stole my money and spent it on himself and that is why he had to ask the court for money for experts ... just three weeks before my first trial setting. Now I have to depend on a court-appointed attorney who has yet to contact me, and I have a hearing tomorrow. I have heard absolutely nothing from anyone about getting my money returned. I find this attorney to be a crook, dishonest and only out for himself. Stay far, very far away from him so you do not find yourself in the same situation. He has only lied to me and continues to lie and avoid me. He has not tried to pay me back the money he stole from me. I filed a criminal complaint against him in late February 2018 and HPD is investigating. They are supposed to be appointing a special prosecutor because the police believe he has committed a crime too. I have pressed charges and I hope that soon he will have to pay for what he has done. I received zero legal advice or preparation for my case from him for $170,000 This crook made a very stressful situation much worse. Do yourself a favor and do not hire this guy. He is a slick person, a good bullshit artist and he will never speak to you about anything legal. He uses lines like "we will make it happen" and "keep the faith" but never gives any legal advice. All he wants is money; but once he has it, he does nothing. Never give him power of attorney. He is very dishonest and will rip you off. He has no money so I probably will never get mine back.
