Excellent Criminal Defense Attorney

From the very first consultation, Mr. Falcone took the time to listen without judgment, explaining every step of the process in clear, straightforward terms. Mr. Falcone was always responsive, returning calls and emails promptly, and making sure I felt informed and supported throughout the case. ...What impressed me most was Mr. Falcone’s ability to remain calm and strategic, even when the situation felt overwhelming for me. Mr. Falcone fought hard for my case, using deep knowledge of the law and a thorough understanding of the system to ensure the best possible outcome. I truly felt that Mr. Falcone cared about my future, not just as a client, but as a person. Thanks to Mr. Falcone’s hard work and expertise, my case was resolved with a much better outcome than I ever expected. If you need a defense attorney who is professional, compassionate, and relentless in advocating for you, look no further than William Robert Falcone.

Hire the best!

Bill didn't just settle for the maximum amount he could get from the insurance companies. He also negotiated for our medical bills to reduce the dollars we had to pay back. Although it was a huge case that took 3 1/2 years because eight of us were injured and several different hospitals involved an...d also due to covid shutting down the courts, he kept us informed every step of the way on where the case was and what to potentially expect. You won't go wrong hiring an upright, hardworking man like Bill!

Thank you so much Lois. It really was a huge case and it was certainly a pleasure to work with you and your family to get such a great result for everyone. We put together a strong team of attorneys and experts to prove that the other driver was at fault. While it did take some time to work through the many issues in the case, we were able to obtain a mediated settlement that was approved by the court. Wishing you the best. Bill

Forever thankful of Bill Falcone! I don't know where I would be today without him!

It was late march and I was driving home from Breckenridge in my Subaru outback. It was snowing and I was heading uphill towards keystone when a driver with no snow tires came into my lane after a switchback turn and crushed me head on. When I woke up all I could hear was the sound of the other drive...rs horn. I previously broke my neck 6 years before the head on collision so I was immediately scared of the possibilities of being paralyzed again. I noticed that my right arm was completely numb from nerve damage and my balance was a little off. I also started to have extremely severe head aches and neck pain. When I contacted the insurance companies to see what sort of help I would have for my injuries I was basically laughed at. I was lost and had no idea what to do. My body was failing me because of the ongoing injuries and I missed some substantial time at work. When the function in my right arm continued to decline and the swinging head aches persisted, I knew I was in big trouble. I had never hired a lawyer before and had no idea what to do. So I made a few calls and the insurance company finally got back to me and told me to NOT hire any help but refused to guide me, help me or give me advice. So I reached out to my Summit County family and friends to seek wisdom from someone that has been in my situation. Everyone was very helpful and gave me some names of Lawyers they had worked with in the past. I spoke with a few different Lawyers but no one was as helpful and understanding as Mr. Falcone. He spent countless hours making calls and working behind the scenes to fast track the help and care I needed. He was able to keep me safe from everyone that was trying to take advantage of my situation. CT scans, MRI, Physical therapy, pain management and a couple years of chiropractic and rehabilitation are just a few things that Bill was able to set up for me. Bill was also never out of reach. When I was scared ad unsure of my future and just needed someone to tell me what was going on in the process Bill was there for me. He always answered my phone calls or was able to call me back as soon as he received my message. Bill was so pleasant to work with I felt like he was a very good friend or family member as time went on. Bill saw me through the worst time of my life and was fantastic from start to finish. After everything was said and done Bill Falcone had become a good friend of mine. Bill was able to secure a very substantial amount of money for my pain and suffering and continued rehabilitation. He also paid off almost 3 years of medical bills and therapy that I needed from my neck injury about $30,000 dollars. I will always remember what Mr. Falcone was able to do for me and my future and he will remain my Lawyer for life. Thank you Bill!!
