Unfortunately, this was a much longer process than it needed to be, but Bill took it all in stride. His knowledge of the law and the procedural aspects of practice in El Dorado County was unmatched in my experience, and his rates reflect the broad depth of knowledge and experience he brings to the table. Bill was patient and professional, and I am incredibly grateful he was on my side throughout this process. I could not recommend him more highly.

I called another attorney to get a second opinion about my case and they straight up told me that Bill is the most knowledgeable about case law in this area, and has been for a long time, and that I was in good hands. Bill has been honest about everything from the beginning, has true integrity both with me and with the court, and is genuinely a good man. If you're looking for a shady attorney who fights dirty, let me know and I'll give you recommendations. But if you're on the other side of that shady attorney who is fighting dirty, Bill will help you find peace and strength while he deals with the chaos.

Where do I even begin…read more... If your Ex hired a lawyer in El Dorado county with a name that rhythms with "Smessa Layer" DO NOT HIRED THEM. I honestly think they work together going back and forth just to rake up their clients bills. Not to mention, if they go to court for you, they charge each client for the court hearing an hourly fee only to give you 10 min of their time. I hired Luke to finish up my divorce once my ex's lawyer decided to ask for my retirement information. At this point, I was 85% done with my divorce. I had filed papers on my own, requested a settlement date, applied for spousal support, etc (payed all of that out of pocket). I had even come to an agreement with my ex. Things had transpired between us and the agreement was no longer a 'go' so I called Luke with the expectations of his solely getting me a divorce, I.e, write up an agreement stating that my ex keeps his things and I keep mine (which would have worked for both parties). Originally I was quoted $7500 as a retained and was told verbatim by Luke "we usually do $10000 for a retainer, but since you are almost done, $7500 should be more than enough". Halfway through I had to pay $3500 more and they ended up charging me close to $1000 over that on my final bill. For a simple settle agreement that I was forced to go to court for. I set them up with one need- a settlement agreement and it took months and thousands of dollars to get it.

While Callie still works with me she has her own business now and can offer the flexibility that the negative reviewer was unable to get back when Callie was working for me.
