"As the second lawyer I had to go through, William handled my situation with professionalism and effectiveness. He sympathized with how frustrating this situation was for me and immediately took initiative by hand-delivering a letter of demand to the property manager. From there, he negotiated a best-case outcome for me--I was able to walk away without penalty. Without his help, I would have been stuck paying rent for a unit I was unable to live in. Given my last experience, I am so glad that a knowledgeable, competent lawyer practices in this area. If I or my family/friends ever need legal assistance, I will not hesitate to contact William first."

"I really can’t say enough good things about Will and his practice. He really takes the time to listen and explain things in a way that makes sense. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and wants the best outcome for them. If you need an attorney who’s not only professional but also down-to-earth and easy to talk to, I would highly recommend Will."
