William Arthur Agnew Jr.

In a case that I provided this attorney the documents needed to show my innocence immediately the attorney at each court appearance would show up and tell me what the DA was offering and reset my court date. This is now dragging into its 10th month and at my last court date the attorney had yet to ...share the information that would have cleared me entirely stating that he didn’t want to “tip our cards to soon” to which I replied that had he addressed it immediately when he received it there would be no need for card at all. So now with the work that I do I can’t get a job with this showing “pending” on my background check and now after no work for 10 months I have exhausted all of my resources and I am currently facing eviction from my apartment and have lost my car as well. I have had three appointments scheduled to see him in his office and the first I took an Uber there only to find a note on the door that stated “closed for inclement weather” so I had to Uber back home. The second he called at the last minute stating that he had been called to court and had to reschedule. The next I thought let me call before wasting money of an Uber which was a good thing because when I called he answered and said that he forgot and wasn’t even in town. In fairness I had to cancel the fourth attempt at meeting with him because my ride backed out at the last minute and I could not afford another Uber. This happened in December and it is now October and the only thing that has happened in this time is that I have lost everything and about to be homeless waiting for an attorney to represent me court appointed or not. He has had the needed documents to have the charge dismissed for 10 months now and has done nothing with it except get my date reset to the point now that I have a jury trial coming up which by the way has made it impossible to hire another attorney without paying $10 ,000 to $15,000 dollars which needless to say i can no longer afford. So I can honestly say that I am horrifically disappointed and at this point hoping that i can avoid becoming homeless between now and my next court date. Please note that this should have been very simple considering that I have not had so much as a speeding ticket since 1991 so it’s not as though I am a repeat offender that would require any real finesse regarding negotiating for better terms and I gave all of the documents needed to prove my innocence 10 months ago. In total I have lost a Cadillac Escalade. A job contract that would have paid me $63,400 for a 13 week assignment , everything of value that had to be pawned to keep the lights including an $8500 wedding ring and all of my electronics, lost wages as I can’t get a job with this showing as pending in total well over $100,000 and the last this offered was deferred adjudication but I refused to plead guilty to something that I did not do and as he put it “playing chicken” all this time was hardly in my best interest nor necessary. He states at our last court date that he was 98% sure he could get it dropped before the court date to thus far I have heard nothing but crickets!!

My attorney, Mr. Agnew was hired for a criminal case on my behalf and done one heck of a job, with the case and the prosecution. He worked and done the right thing for me and my family. Was done at a reasonable rate and and had my case dismissed. I would undoubtingly recommend Mr Bill Agnew for anyo...ne looking for an excellent attorney. He knows his stuff and doesnt beat around the bush. Tthank you Bill for your services.

Bill Agnew was one of the first referrals we received for attorneys in the area. We were at a loss as to what to do and where to turn in such a rough time. Our family lives on a fixed income, and needless to say, legal battles do not exactly fit in with that situation. We contacted Bill and he wa...s quick to return our call, prices were discussed and we were encouraged to shop around and to see if we could find something that fit our situation better. After a very discouraging meeting with a very arrogant, self-absorbed, and expensive defense attorney in the Nacogdoches area, we left the office feeling scared and almost hopeless. We were told that the case could be taken on with a 3500.00 retainer and would go up from there, not including court costs. One day and one call later we were meeting with Bill, paying only a fraction of the retainer, and feeling very encouraged that the case was not the end of the road, but merely a bump in it. Bill has fulfilled every aspect of what he told us the very first meeting, he worked out a deal with the prosecutor not because he had to, but because he knew how. He has the knowledge and experience from working both sides of these cases to give you an accurate idea of what can be done, what is the best choice for you to make. Ultimately he guides you in the direction he thinks you should go, what your best and easiest outcome will be, but the decision is yours to make. A decision of Bill Agnew as your attorney is a good one to make, in my opinion; he's an honest and caring human being who is dedicated to his clients and his community. I would highly reccommend him to anyone that needed the services of a defense attorney.
