Law Office of William C. Halsey 2424 Vista Way, Oceanside, CA 92054

"Mr. Halsey did nothing at my trails, did not speak up for me when it came to trial with Patti Ratekin and all he wants is his payments to which he supposedly did his job. Now he just either said nothing or was just taking a snooze. He did not even care to do his job properly, he wanted me to do his job for him such as getting documents, and yet he couldn't even get the police report from the D.A. He is indeed a pathetic lawyer, and I will not pay any of his services. People make sure to look for a better lawyer, because a lawyer like him, he is just trying to dig in people's pockets and not even go face to face against a "strong," but also pathetic of a commissioner Patti Ratekin. Those two, don't care about destroying people's lives and now I'm in a situation where it has put me into debt. So if you really need a good lawyer, look somewhere and spread this message all over social media, and if anyone needs to, take up to the news media about Halsey and Ratekin."

"William Halsey has helped up tremendously and has went beyond our expectation. Our case was very rare and was very difficult for other attorneys and it also even rare for our judge. Halsey put in his best effort to do his research and helped us with the case with the best outcome. Halsey was warm hearted and was very caring from the beginning of the case until the case was closed. With future cases I will definitely come back to Halsey because he will provide us with the best results. I would highly recommend William Halsey if you want a great attorney who will do anything to get the best outcome for you."

"I wanted to take the time to give feedback and express my utmost appreciation for the work and results Mr. Halsey produced representing me during my divorce proceedings. First of all I began with another lawyer here in town that cost me in retainer fees twice the amount than what Mr. Halsey required to take over my case. My divorce took over a year and a half to finalize and Mr. Halsey took over at the midway point or a bit prior during this time. My lawyer though extremely expensive had done me such injustice by his lack of properly listening to my requests and concerns as well as never taking the time to properly familiarize himself with my case. After he and I parted ways the work and effort needed in my case was so overwhelming ( in my eyes ) and the damage caused by previous lawyer accepting everything my ex was asking for and he telling me that “ I am lucky “ this is all she wants and that I need to accept her terms. I felt completely taken for a ride and defenseless. Mr. Halsey took the time on our first meeting ( which was over an hour and he did not charge me a dime for ) to completely familiarize himself with my case. He was incredible. He could not believe how poorly my previous lawyer had represented me and saw that I was desperate and running out of money to afford proper legal representation. Mr. Halsey required half the amount of retainer fees and immediately went to work getting us back in front of the judge as well as speaking with my ex regarding her requests before finalizing our divorce. We were prepared every time we were due in court Mr. Halsey presented everything we had discussed during our meetings professionally to the judge as well as getting my ex to agree to terms that were fair and final. I could not be more grateful to this man. He does not sugar coat anything with you. He tells you what to expect and what he will do for you and does it. That is everything one can ask for can ask for when it comes to someone representing you during one of the toughest and stressful and unfamiliar proceedings a person can experience. Mr. Halsey from the bottom of my heart. Thank You ."

"Mr. Halsey and staff are very professional, orally articulate, have good written communication skills and also great listeners. Mr. Halsey argues convincingly in the courtroom before juries and judges, and has great public speaking skills. Mr. Halsey and staff write clearly, persuasively and concisely, as they produce a variety of legal documents. Another great and necessary trait that Mr. Halsey and staff have is their quick response time. I am comfortable calling at any time during the day, and being able to ask questions, receive answers and provide necessary information regarding my case. I highly recommend Mr. Halsey, he is without doubt, the best lawyer in town!"

"Hiring an attorney can be extremely difficult and stressful. It is such an important decision. I am so pleased I chose Mr. Halsey. He is organized, articulate and thorough. He did a free consultation and quickly evaluated my situation. He set a reasonable fee. He recommended a game plan and gave me specific information and instruction. He gave me a list of items he needed with specific dates of when he needed them back. Best of all, he got the job done with the best possible results. Thank you Mr. Halsey and your entire staff!"
