About William
Biography
Bill is co-owner of Blasser Law with his wife Lisa and is the lead trial attorney for the firm. His practice focuses on Family Law, Child Custody, Child Support, Divorce and Separation, Alimony, Domestic Violence and Pre-nup agreements. Bill uses his passion and experience to protect his clients’ families, assets and legacy. He is a trial attorney who loves advocating in court on behalf of his clients but works to thoroughly prepare every case, so his clients are in a position to successfully resolve their disputes without the need for a trial. Bill understands that legal disputes involving family law and estates are very stressful, and is dedicated to comforting his clients with thoughtful counsel and strategies that alleviate this anxiety.
Bill earned his undergraduate degree in Economics from the University of Montana in 1997. While in law school, he received several awards from the Witkin Legal Institute for Academic Excellence. Bill earned his Juris Doctorate in 2004, graduating from law school with scholastic honors, and went on to pass California Bar Exam on his first attempt. Bill has been actively practicing law since November 2004. He practices in the California State Courts, the Federal District Courts and the California Court of Appeal.
On a Personal Note …
“I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area, but have been a Southern California resident for over 16 years. While I was in law school, I met an amazing, beautiful and talented woman named Lisa. I am proud to say she is the co-owner of Blasser Law and my wife. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing, exercising, and playing Chess. I use most of my leisure time, however, doing what I love most: spending time with my wife and children. I am a trial attorney, and I love to advocate on behalf of my clients inside a courtroom.
I understand, however, that court hearings and trials are expensive and emotionally strenuous for my clients. This is why I thoroughly prepare every case I accept. The evidence is in place. Arguments are well thought out. Testimony is laid out and rehearsed. This level of preparation empowers my clients to effectively negotiate and settle their disputes before trial. In the rare instances where my clients cannot resolve things informally, they are well – prepared to succeed when they present their case in court.
‘We listen. We communicate. We Prepare. We follow through.’ This is not just a tagline we use for advertising like other law firms. This is what we do at Blasser Law. I look forward to meeting you personally very soon.

Great guy!
Very helpful and knowledgeable. Very nice! He was the first lawyer I talked to that actually was civilized enough to not talk bad about my ex wife. Godbless this man.

Attentive and calls it as it is
William took the time for an extended consultation about a case involving mental illness and multiple hearings before trial. He gave his candidate advice and understands how to approach divorce and custody involving mental illness, which is rare.

I had already finalized a divorce with my ex, but made a terrible personal choice that jeopardized the custody established in that divorce.
