"I have worked with Bill on several cases. He is always well prepared and cordial with clients, other attorneys and the court. I have recommended him to other potential clients outside the scope of my practice. He is the attorney I would hire if I had a legal problem. I highly endorse this lawyer."

Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I endorse this lawyer's work. I have seen Mr. Sullivan work tirelessly in the face of significant obstacles to protect and advance his client's interests. Mr. Sullivan represented a defendant in a family law matter and I represented the special master in the same case. I was repeatedly impressed with the manner in which Mr. Sullivan advanced his client's interests and also his preparation in all matters.
