Superb Attorney!

I called Mr. Grant for a consultation over a levy that was put on my bank account from a credit card company. He researched the case that was filed in court, gave me all the details and educated me on what the best recourse was, all in 15 mins and without charging me a penny. Who does that? I highly... recommend Mr. Grant .

Construction & Development Attorney

Bill has been our corporate attorney for many years and has handled every issue we have brought to him from simple contract terms and negotiation to the most complex defenses of our work. Bill has always been willing to share both sides of a legal issue in order to best understand the entire situati...on. He has handled all of our work with integrity and honesty, and been extremely quick to respond. I would recommend Bill to anyone in the construction industry looking for a client first attorney.

Only the best...

Bill has been our corporate attorney for over a decade. In that time, his record representing us is stellar. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable in his field but he is also very personable and easy to talk to making the litigation process much less stressful. The first time you talk to him, you... know he has integrity and is honest which is very important in our book. Bill came highly recommended to us all of those years ago and we now highly recommend him to anyone needing an attorney in our industry.

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.
