About William
Biography
I have wanted to be a trial lawyer since I was 6 years old. At that age, I read a short story called "The Devil and Daniel Webster." Long story short: after reading it, I knew that being a lawyer could be something heroic, that I could help people who desperately needed help.
After graduating from law school, I worked as a briefing attorney for United States District Judge Robert W. Porter.
After completing my term with Judge Porter, I started working at the Austin law firm of Clark, Thomas & Winters. I handled white collar (RICO) cases, insurance cases, and commercial matters.
My thirst for trials would only be quenched, though, once I started working for the Travis County District Attorney's Office. I worked in these units: juvenile prosecution, trial court (assigned at various times to the 167th, 299th, and 390th District Courts), grand jury, child abuse prosecution, and the special prosecution (white collar crime) unit. I was made the first "court chief" of the 390th District Court.
Now I continue representing clients in my criminal defense practice. I love it. It allows me to continue helping people, defending the accused both in trial and in negotiations, whichever is more appropriate for my client.

DWI Case - Dismissed
In March of 2014 I was arrested with a charge of a DWI. While still at the station scared out of my mind as I've never so much as received a traffic ticket before, I hired first lawyer with the largest ad in the yellow pages out of the phone book. After my release 24 hours later and a really lon...
William Bradford Mange's Lawyer Endorsements
"Bill is an excellent criminal defense lawyer."
"Mr. Mange is not only a great attorney but he is a great human being. He is a true advocate for his clients and he genuinely cares. When I need to make a referral in his area, he is the only call I make!"
"When I was a prosecutor, I knew I was in for a fight when Bill was the lawyer on the other side. He is extremely sharp and well prepared. His clients are lucky to have him fighting for their rights."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse William. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"Bill Mange is an exceptional attorney. He is one of the best—if not The Best--DWI lawyers in Austin. Bill is highly intelligent, extremely knowledgeable, and always thoroughly prepared. When Bill and I worked together in the District Attorney’s office together, Bill was legendary for his trial preparation and attention to detail. Bill is a fierce advocate for his clients. I enthusiastically endorse this lawyer."
"Bill Mange is one of the best defense lawyers in Travis County. Sometimes lawyers need to bounce ideas off of each other to craft the best tactics and strategy in defending a criminal case, and I have often tapped Bill as a useful resource in that regard. Also, he’s on a very short list of attorneys I would hire if I were charged with a crime in or around Austin, Texas. I think those might actually be the two best things I could say about any lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Bill for quite a few years and am familiar with the high quality of his work. He is smart, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. He works hard for his clients, is completely ethical, and gets excellent results."
