William Asher Morehead

I was arrested for a DUI and was looking for a good lawyer in Marin County. I have consulted 9 people, some of them were recommended by friends, some of them had great reviews. In overall - all of them were good, but I couldn’t make my decision still. Believe it or not - I don’t believe reviews too m...uch, and don’t typically leave any. But this is an extraordinary occasion. So All of the lawyers were similar: identical approach, identical price, identical requirements in terms of payments : either everything upfront or at least a half ( even before the court day) so I thought that was a normal thing. A different lawyer ( not specialising in the DUI) recommended me to chat with Will according to his research, so he was my number 10. I called Will and immediately felt connection. Extremely knowledgable, great attitude, professional, great experience. I loved his plan of action the best out of all 10 and decided to hire him right away - without hesitation. Imagine how surprised I was, when Will told me, that he not gonna charge me a single dollar before he makes sure that the Court will actually proceed with charges. He said there is a chance that they might not take it further and if this is the case - he won’t charge me anything. I was shocked, because that’s was quite the opposite from what I heard from 9 other lawyers who just wanted my money first, before even diving deeper into my case. I was impressed with his honesty. We signed agreement and Will started the process. He did his research within the court and was able to find out that the court will not proceed the charges and called me back with great news. That was a miracle in my case, I couldn’t believe it. So despite he knew that DUI case is dismissed, he was triple checking everything for me and answering my late text messaging to help me with all my concerns. And there were a lot of messages, trust me here:) So without taking a single cent from me, he assisted me with everything, recommended me a lawyer for my further needs and was just in overall amazing guy. He is unique in his way, I will recommend him to all my friends in the future but also, wanted to share my incredible experience in here. I wish there were more lawyers like Will!

I’m the kind of person who could get in a fist fight at church unfortunately. Or assault with a deadly weapon on a sailboat. I met Will after interviewing a few clowns while dealing with a felony dui. I appreciated that I could communicate with him candidly. He handled that case appropriately a...nd my terms were not so bad. Will again helped me when I violated my probation by stirring up trouble. He found me psych help thru the VA that I didn’t know existed that was pertinent to avoiding jail time. The man is always reachable within a reasonable time frame and I’ve appreciated being able to ask him questions by text message. I hope you don’t need as much lawyer as I did, but if you do, I recommend talking to Will.

I was absolutely appalled and so depressed when I was pulled over and thrown in jail for the night after having 1.5 glasses of wine at dinner with a friend. A DUI is a devastating and shameful event. My family lawyer recommended William Moorehead because of his Harvard provenance. I was immediatel...y impressed with his kind, affable bedside manner over the phone. He assured me that DUI's were happening to virtually everyone these days. I visited his office (which is very pretty, relaxing and unpretentious), and we agreed on a strategy. Though he had not represented many DUIs, and though my breathalyzer test was slightly over the limit, he was able due to his extensive legal experience in San Francisco to get my sentence reduced from a DUI to a "Wet Reckless," which carries somewhat lighter penalties. He prepared an excellent, very thorough case for my hearing, and found many ways in which my arresting officer ignored protocol while administering the tests. While the judge did not dismiss my case, she was impressed with Mr. Moorehead's argument and said she thought it might win if we went to trial. If I had more disposable cash, I would have hired him to go to trial - I believe he would have won. Will Moorehead is a very knowledgeable, personally likable attorney, and I will not hesitate to use him if I am convicted of any other crimes. (He also has an excellent sense of humor...which can be a real blessing at stressful times.) His presence is very reassuring, his skills are formidable. I give him an entirely hearty, unreserved recommendation.

I was lucky to be introduced to Mr. Morehead to review my DUI arrest. After meeting Will I knew right away I wanted him to represent me. His knowledge of the law not only for traffic issues or DUI’s but also the court system and how the DA and Judge would view my case. After reviewing my case and the... arrest report I met with Will again to view the CHP video. Will, not only found the angle to present my case but was able to argue to have it completely dismissed. I truly appreciate him and his effort to work outside the box representing me. The Judge and the DA showed respect to knowledge of the law. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a attorney knowledgeable of the law but also someone that understands the court system.
