Testimonial - Lisa M. Culligan
This
is a letter that should concern anyone entrenched in a family law legal
battle in DuPage County, Illinois. Just under two years ago I
walked into William Stogsdill's office searching for an attorney who was
strong, who possessed expertise in family law, and who was a powerful
trial attorney in order to represent me in my custody battle. I had
previously contacted and hired other attorneys and received a lot of
opinions and advice along with extraordinarily high legal bills, without
results in the courtroom. Until I hired
William
Stogsdill, my battle for the custody for my two children was at a
standstill. Within the first few moments of meeting with
William Stogsdill, I quickly realized, though he intimidated me, that he
was the person I was searching for. Let me tell you he was and is a
lifesaver. In a mere three months, he completely cleaned up a five year
mess in a case that I had been told by many other persons, including
other lawyers and several judges, that the case was in need of more than
a miracle to correct what had gone on in the past. I cannot tell you
what having him on my side of the case has meant. I have learned so much
from his organizational skills and tenacity. He immediately worked
with me to develop a strategy to bring the legal proceedings to a
conclusion and was able to weed through the voluminous facts and
determine what was important and not important in presenting my case to
the court. Obviously, I had been living a nightmare for years, and
like others in my position, thought that every detail was important.
I learned a lot from working with William Stogsdill. Even my
children feel forever indebted to him because they feel they have
finally found someone who will go to battle for them. If for one second
you feel even slightly daunted by attorneys fees, consider that if you
search for a less expensive attorney, as I had, you may end up spending
many more thousands of dollars without any results. Every attorney,
legal assistant, paralegal and even his receptionist treated me with the
utmost respect and were always available to me to address my concerns.
To watch William Stogsdill in court...well there really is no better. He
commands the respect of the courts and his peers just by walking in the
courtroom which he has earned through his 32 years of experience.
I have been approached on numerous occasions by other persons at court
to find out who he is and to obtain his card after observing his
presentation. I would never hesitate in any way to recommend him
to other persons. William Stogsdill is honest, and will tell you
clearly what he can and cannot do and exactly how he intends to
accomplish a task.
He advised me when he believed that my expectations were unattainable in
order to avoid unnecessary legal fees and he will relentlessly pursued
my well founded requests and acted in the best interests of my children.
I really have not seen anything this man cannot do in a court of law. I
have watched many other attorneys use despicable tactics, make deceitful
representations and I have never seen William Stogsdill lower himself to
do that type of conduct. He can quote case law and statutes from memory.
The man is amazing, and I truly credit him for the life I and my
children now have!!! If you are in need of a true advocate, and
you are stuck in the family law court system in DuPage then William
Stogsdill should be your choice. I feel strongly about his ability and I
can't say enough. Do not make a mistake...hire the person that
truly wants to do an exemplary job, not just spend your money.
Sincerely,
Lisa M. Culligan
