William Scherer Bailey's Lawyer Endorsements

Karen Koehler

Personal injury lawyer | Apr 23

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Bill Bailey is a fabulous and talented trial attorney. We have worked on many cases together and teach together at the UW law school. Bill cares about his clients and their cases, probably more than anyone else that I know. He feels their pain to his core. This means he fights as hard as he possibly can to make things right for them."

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.
