A True Counselor

What can I say about Bill Kelly? The most important thing for me to say about Bill now is that he is a trusted and valued friend. The most important things for me to say about Bill for the years he represented me was that he was a fierce advocate, a diligent and highly competent professional, and a c...ompassionate and caring human being. Bill doesn’t leave who he is at the courthouse door; he takes his integrity, honor, and decency straight before the bench. Bill was placed in a seemingly impossible position with my case, and he fought honorably and diligently on my behalf. I was, by all measure, a terrible client. I have a Type A personality, I don’t take “no” for an answer, and I can let my emotions get the better of me. Bill was wise enough to give me space when I needed it, to confront me when I needed it, and to just listen when I needed it. Those instincts are invaluable in the practice of family law, and Bill possesses them in spades. Whether in need of simple decree drafting for an agreed divorce, or an advocate to navigate a custody jury trial, Bill would always be my first choice. When you hire Bill, you don’t just gain his decades of knowledge and skill; you likewise gain access to the professional network he has amassed through his hard work and integrity exhibited through his many years of practice and his ability to forge and maintain friendships. The practice of law is rarely black and white, and Bill has wisely invested time in relationships that aid his practice. That advantage cannot be overstated. If you find yourself in the unenviable position of subjection to divorce or custody proceedings, do yourself a favor and hire my good friend Bill Kelly. You will not regret your decision.

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.
