Bill Lemann

Bill Lemann started out as a young lawyer helping my mother. He proved to be the most trusted and valuable of advisors to her and later to myself and my family. He truly cares about his clients and they become family to him. Working as a court reporter for 40 years I was able to view firsthand h...is skills in the courtroom and they are stellar. I can't speak highly enough of Bill and our experiences with him in handling the most complex legal problems in a professional and brilliant manner

An Attorney Who Cares

A couple years ago, my father passed away after a couple week stay in the hospital. During this horrible time, Mr. Lemann was more than an attorney, he went above and beyond the call of duty for my family during this terrible time. He treated us like we were part of his own family, and we are truly g...rateful. If you are looking for an attorney who will treat you like one of his own while providing top notch service, look no further than Mr. Lemann. He is not just an attorney, but someone I consider a friend.

Attorney

Wilfrid Lemann just handled a very complex case for me that involved not one but both of my parents that unfortunately both have very serious mental illnesses Bill handled this case with grace and dignity for both of my parents who were so ill that both were making it very complicated for myself as o...ldest son to obtain a healthcare directive and power of attorney by nature I am a very impatient person however I trusted Bill and he accomplished the task his knowledge of the law and his mastery of compassion and empathy and his desire to protect the dignity of both of my parents was a masterpiece sincerely Michael L Valentine

Extraordinary talent, civility and creativity

Bill displays extraordinary talent, civility and creativity as an experienced member of the bar. His ethics and loyalty are beyond compare. He is a trusted mentor, colleague, friend and go-to expert capable of handling most business, corporate and real property matters as well as litigation. Bill h...as my highest confidence and recommendation.

The very best!

When my brother passed away suddenly, without a will, we needed a probate attorney. Mr. Lemann was highly recommended by someone I trust completely and he was everything we could have hoped for. He was always available for questions, he has a fantastic staff, and he guided us through the probate pr...ocess with as little stress to me and my mother as possible. I can't say enough good about him, and his entire firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
