Many entrepreneurs and other business professionals fall prey to "handshake agreements" - meaning they go into business with a trusted friend or relative, or in some cases someone they barely know, and fail to set up a clear, written contract.This can lead to complications, sometimes serious complications, should a dispute arise.

Bill worked on a sale agreement for me when I sold my share of a business. He provided clear terms and conditions to prevent future disputes and liabilities. He explained everything very patiently and clearly. I was able to move forward with this transaction confident that I was protected.
I highly recommend Bill as an attorney.

William is a very knowledgeable attorney. I reached him to request for help in a legal issue - although situation did not allow me to retain him, he consistently was available for any questions, guided me through the process very patiently. I wish I met him before I hired another one. In this confusing, frustrating, stressful legal world, one should have help from attorneys like William. I would definitely recommend William.

I have consulted with Mr. Hanson on several business matters over the course of several years and have been very happy with the advice and results. He is easy to work with, communicates well and I always felt like I was getting sound advice. His fees were reasonable and he worked efficiently on my cases. I would enthusiastically recommend him for any business or real estate matter.

I recently found myself involved in a business contract dispute that I feared would cause me to lose a great deal of money. I contacted Mr. Hanson's team and they instantly put the matter to rest, with no court involvement and minimal expense to me. They prepared fast, they know what they're doing and they move quickly. I always felt that conquering my problem was their number one objective and they got me a great result. After working with them, it's nice to know I have a law firm I can go to whenever I need one for any future issues that come up in business or real estate matters.

Mr. Hanson helped me negotiate the lease terms for my current apartment. I had no experience with this type of negotiation, but he was able to explain everything in a clear and understandable manner. He was extremely thorough, and went through the entire document with me clause-by-clause. Mr. Hanson put my mind at ease during an otherwise stressful time, and I would highly reccomend him to others.

I consulted with Bill regarding the sale of my business and found him to be professional, honest, straightforward, and most importantly, very knowledgeable about the law. Although I had a number of specific legal questions pertaining to my business, he provided detailed answers and explained them in a manner in which helped to give me more confidence about the legal ramifications of my decisions. The result was that I was completely satisfied with the final transaction thanks to Bill’s good counsel.
