Top-shelf representation.

My 2nd interaction with Mr. Beecher in 17 years. Case representation took place in April. Expect thorough, prompt service, clear explanation of the process, and procedure. Courteous, professional service from a veteran attorney. Don't settle for less. Outstanding.

Stress-less Bankruptcy

William Beecher was my attorney during a very stressful time in my life. He guided me & advised me during my initial bankruptcy proceedings & later helped me navigate a complicated medical lawsuit settlement & a repayment plan for my creditors. Mr. Beecher was very diligent about communicating wi...th me, my creditors & the attorneys that were representing other entities. I appreciated that the fee he charged me did not change when he was required to make extra phone calls &/or send emails to prod other attorneys that had dropped the ball. I experienced William Beecher as kind, compassionate, highly experienced & thorough. I would definitely hire him again & I recommend his services to anyone that wants to take the stress out of their bankruptcy!

Call him today!

William Beecher has over 30 years experience. He's the best in his field. I can't find the words to express how impressed I am with his expertise and expediency. He directs and leads his clients, and moves faster than an F-16 fighter! He'll move forward so quickly with your case you'll have a har...d time keeping up with him. In my first interview, he asked the pertinent questions, gave me homework to present him with the information relevant to determine whether I had a case, and if I hadn't been so busy at work, he would have filed my case within a week's time. He was always waiting on me, not the other way around. He responds same day with emails, follows up, and doesn't waste time. Just call him. And follow through. Do it today! Make the call! Do it!

Outstanding Attorney

I have enlisted the help of this law firm three times, dating back to the 90's. They are really helpful and make you feel at ease right away. The entire office is very professional and you are never in the dark about what to expect. I would recommend Mr. Beecher! They are professional and ethical.... You can't ask for a better team.

Exceptional Professionalism

Mr. Beecher was recommended by two friends and a family member due to his expert experience and knowledge in dealing with bankruptcy matters. He is kind, professional and straight forward in dealing with his clients. Mr. Beecher made sure we were well informed, kept up to date and above all, he is ex...tremely quick with any correspondence. I highly recommend Mr. Beecher and trust that he will treat all with the same professionalism as he did us.

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.
