Attorney Fulton is a true professional and his reputation as one of the best attorneys in Central PA is well deserved.
- Venkat Iyer
Amazing experience, No-BS attorney, who is very straight forward and I've not met someone honest like Bill in a while.
- Jiggly Krowza
This guy is a human vacancy. He assured me several times then got paid and suddenly changed his tune. Then he got mad I demanded my prelim on stacked BS charges and deliberately blew the prelim and told me it was "to teach me a lesson about the law". Later that night he was making jokes about it on his company FB page. This guy serves himself and the prosecutor NOT you. Fair warning.

I'm so grateful for Mr.Fulton and his teams help. I live in Arizona and discovered a warrant for me in PA during my background check for a job. And I was stuck and was not aware of how to proceed. I've not worked with any attorneys in the past. I called their office, finding his information on Nolo's Local Search. Very friendly, courteous and helpful, his team member Jonathan helped me setup an appointment and assured me that It will be resolved. Bill is a very down-to earth person. He left me a voice message next day assuring me that everything will be resolved. Bill got back to me timely on the following working day morning with more information on my case and promptly helped me to resolve the situation. Absolutely awesome experience. Should you have any legal issue in PA, I'd recommend consult with Bill and his team. They care about you. Very responsive, Very professional and Caring. I'd have been arrested and extradited on a random day, Have I not reached out to him and I'm very grateful for the help.
