He helped me A LOT after drunk driver hit me.

He was referred by a friend who used his services before. Never hired a lawyer before and glad that I did. Was hit by a drunk driver and he assisted me with dealing with the insurance company and settlement. Would use his services again.

Car Accident Injuries- Best Outcome

If you end up in a car accident, with any injuries, you want Bill Falcone as your attorney. My case was complex since I was in a car accident with multiple injuries. I contacted Bill because in prior year he had helped my husband with a traffic ticket case with desirable outcome. Bill was able to set...tle not only for my medical bills, loss of wages, future treatments, but also pain and suffering I endured due to adverse effects of the accident to my life style and daily activiets. He went above and beyond my expectations in bringing justice to my case. Not only is he an excellent attorney, smart and skillful, but also he is personable, caring, and pleasant to work with. He always answers his phone, responds to emails and message promptly, and gives you the support you need. He's trustworthy and honest. When it comes to your case, he runs everything by you and keeps you in the loop of his progress, defense strategies and approach, and next steps in moving forward. He masters the English language and communication skills. I am beyond satisfied and grateful for having Bill as my attorney. I still cannot whipe the smile of joy and satisfaction off my face. He is truly the best!

We worked well together and I am very pleased with the end result. I enjoy being an attorney and helping people. Thanks for your kind words. That means a lot to me.

Posted by Marsha | June 21, 2019 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Highly recommended for Summit legal issuess

Bill knows the court system in Summit County and led us through a challenging legal battle with a DUI violation that was both unwarranted and not handled fairly by Highway Patrol. Bill was able to reduce the ticket to a 5 point moving violation and restoration of my license and driving privileges. ...He was a fantastic ally and fought for us and achieved the greatest possible outcome.

Thank You so much for the kind words. I enjoyed fighting for your rights and was excited for the great outcome!

DUI resolution

Hey there to everyone, I used Bill as my attorney to fight my DUI case along with two other traffic violations. My BAC was per se (excessive) which got me into a bind. Not knowing where to start Bill walked me through what to expect on the trial filled journey. All the questions I had along the wa...y were answered promptly and correctly. Everything Bill prepared me for came true leaving me with no surprises and knowing what to expect the whole time. I was anxious at times, and he would remind me that mistakes are lesson waiting to be learned from. Thank you Bill for an awesome undeniable defense.

  • 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.
