    Hear From Our Clients

    • "Always honest and up-front about everything"
      Bill Geary handled my divorce/custody case with exceptional professionalism and expertise.
      Our case had a number of unique points dealing with international custody, and Bill was able to gather significant resources for our case and provide valuable guidance that put us in an advantageous position when the case went to court. His knowledge and experience of the court system and how it works was both impressive and reassuring to us and was instrumental in helping us to navigate successfully through the long and difficult legal process.
      He was always honest and up-front about everything (even about things that you may not want to hear) and responded promptly to all communications. His fee may be a little higher than others, but it is very fair and was money well-spent.

    • "I can't thank them enough"

      Bill (and his staff) always kept us informed, responded quickly to our emails and questions, and even took time away from his own vacation to help make sure we knew what was happening with our custody case. He made it easy to trust him, because he showed us that he could be trusted. Knowledgeable, honest, trustworthy, confident, realistic: these are just a few words I would use to describe him. And, don't forget "funny". Having a good laugh during a very difficult and stressful process, is much appreciated! We couldn't have asked for a better attorney.

      I now have a house full of very happy children, a husband who's comforted knowing his son is home with us where he belongs, and a very optimistic outlook on our future. And it's all thanks to Bill and his amazing crew. I can't thank them enough.

    • "You will not be disappointed!"
      Unfortunately, I have an ex-wife that never stops wanting to take me to court in hopes for more money. Mr. Geary has always stood firm and represented me in a fact based, no drama manner. He is honest and trustworthy, and aggressively supports his clients with such integrity. I sincerely appreciated how he supported me with great passion during our depositions and through the negotiations. Bill's high level of experience afforded him the ability to manage my case with precision and guide me accurately through the entire process. I also appreciated his calm approach, which makes you feel like everything is going to be ok, despite the circumstances. If you are able to secure Bill as your lawyer, I'm certain you will not be disappointed!
