Without a doubt a useless money sucking scumbag. In no way followed up on obvious wins and his bill was three times what he promised. Pathetic.

If there was a zero rating Bill Parker deserves a “0” for his unethical practices which include prolonging matters with no resolutions to gain extraordinary payments from both sides. This man has no morals or ethics in resolving matters amicably and in the best interest of all concerned. So much so that he’s okay will causing undue hardship towards children that is emotionally hurtful and unethical. To be blunt, he doesn’t give a**** about anyone but himself.

I would eco many of the comments on this page - Mr Parker is more focused on billing than doing a good job. While he seemed knowledgeable he also billed me significantly for "research". He was very receptive to calls and emails but then produced an alarming bill and when we questioned the hours he was very defensive. Having since used new council, it is clear that he over charged us for the work done. We would not recommend Mr Parker and we will not use him again.

Have been a customer of these folks for many years. We've used both family and estate serolvices and have relied on the piece of mind you get knowing they are watching your back. We highly recommend them. Thank you!

William handled my divorce and did a great job. Kept me up to date and got me a great support deal.

Absolutely HORRIBLE lawyer. I could name his faults, but I'd only be mirroring what just about everyone says about him. I had a pretty uncontested divorce, (both of us agreed the house was to be sold, both of us agreed on Joint Custody for our child, etc.), but I ended up with a legal bill of over 100K for his 'services'. NEVER heard of a lawyer that seems to hate confrontation. Absolutely horrible, seriously considering going to the Law Society of Canada to appeal my incredibly over-inflated payment.

I would echo the comments on the December review. Very poor value. This is someone who focusses on billing and protracting a matter rather than solving it. He does not listen to direction, even in writing and throws together childish letters to come across as tough. He makes silly assumptions in his letter expecting the other party to agree which only cause to distance any settlement that may be achieved. He has no strategy plan and spends a lot of time thinking and doodling instead of using that time to effect a difference for his client. Stay clear.

Parker does not advocate for his clients, provides no sound advice, no overall strategy, frequently misses opportunities, and ignores direct instructions. He fails to call key witnesses, fails to effectively collect and craft affidavits, fails to meet important deadlines, fails to communicate in a timely manner, fails to forward critical documents, and engages in protracted he said / she said name-calling rather than providing a succinct and direct game plan for his clients. He is entirely reactive, not proactive, and the result is an enormous legal bill with no outcome whatsoever. Worst, he in no way advocates for his clients, which is the job of a family lawyer. Absolutely one of the worst lawyers I have ever encountered.
