Professional with desired results!

Billy was diligently attentive to my requests, communicative, and able to reduce the severity of my case with ease. Thank you for allowing me to carry on with my life due to your sleight of hand within the courtroom.

Harvey Spector of a lawyer

Hired Mr. Billy to help my brother in need he had a list of things he was being held up for with no bond, Billy was hired, and in less than a weeks time my brother was released 2 of his 3 no bond cases were dismissed and the 3rd he got him deferred probation now my brother is out a free man and back ...to his life with family. HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. The actions he took were quick and swift i was shocked.

5 stars!

I could've got 25 to life in prison but he dropped it down from a felony to a class A misdemeanor

Posted by anonymous | March 12, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Case dismissed!

Mr. Morian fought for my son who was charged unfairly and got the case dismissed! He knew how to communicate effectively with the DA and he took the time to get details from me in order to better understand the big picture. This put him in a good position to argue the case for dismissal. I highly rec...ommend his services!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I am writing to offer my wholehearted endorsement of Attorney William "Billy" Morian. As a former Assistant District Attorney and Felony Prosecutor for Harris County, I had the distinct pleasure of working alongside Billy from the beginning of his career in misdemeanor court through to his work in felony cases. Billy consistently demonstrated an exceptional level of dedication, skill, and professionalism. We handled a wide variety of cases together, and I was continually impressed by his abilities. He was truly an invaluable ally in the courtroom. Billy has a kind yet determined spirit, which sets him apart in the legal profession. His approachable and personable nature makes him easy to work with and fosters positive relationships with colleagues, clients, and even opposing counsel. Despite his kind demeanor, Billy is resolute and tenacious in his pursuit of justice, never backing down from a challenge and always advocating fiercely for his clients."
