I’m beyond grateful for Bill’s expertise and the support from his staff. For any veteran seeking legal help in Santa Barbara County, I strongly recommend reaching out to Bill Makler!

Mr. Makler helped me with a traffic related issue. He was available for a consultation when I placed the initial call. I appreciated being able to speak to
Bill was clear and to the point and helped navigate the dmv process with ease.
Great representation with a positive outcome! Communication was easy and very straight forward.
Thank you!
Thank you!
I am so thankful I decided to have Mr. Makler represent me in my criminal and then civil case. He and his legal team put experience and skill to work for me and after getting my charges lowered, he ultimately succeeded in having my case completely thrown out with all charges dropped. Not only did I get the desired end result, but Mr. Makler and his team were patient, and supportive throughout the process. Mr. Makler saw that the charges against me were ridiculous and that I was not guilty of any infraction. He compiled and presented the evidence including security camera footage and once the facts were clearly seen, the case was dropped. Thank you Mr. Makler for fighting for me and ensuring the true facts were visible to the justice system.
very knowledgeable, this guy knows his stuff! he was quick to reply, and also gave recommendations for family lawyers. Not only that but he seemed honest
William and his team are were very helpful. I took his immediate recommendation and the problems went away. 10/10 recommended fast and helpful

The best. Without a doubt. Don’t waste your time looking for anyone else. I promise. I can’t say enough, other than he and his team get the job done and provided you do what you are asked of, it will all work out.
I retained Mr. Makler to assist when my son was inappropriately charged with a violation. He is extremely knowledgeable and a very good advocate for his clients. We were kept up to date throughout the matter, and always received answers to any questions quickly. All charges were dismissed.
In the beginning of my journey of fighting this criminal charge, I was stuck with a public defender who, for the lack of a better word, was useless. After him, I got transferred to a different public defender who was very lackluster and dismissive. That is when I made the decision to search for a better alternative. Bill came highly praised and after our first conversation he gave me a few options that would result in my case being dismissed. Those options were never even mentioned by my prior attorneys. I will be forever grateful for what himself, Tony and the rest of their team did for me and my life. The initial deliberation between paying a private attorney (which is, by the way, more affordable than I initially anticipated) or sticking with a public one ended up being worth it in the end. I would do this all over again in a heartbeat, if I had to. Highly recommend their services. They are super attentive, responsive, diligent, professional, and in the upper echelon of their craft.
Attorney William Makler knows the Santa Barbara court system extremely well. Because of his knowledge and experience he is able to work with you to reach the absolute best outcome for your case. He has a wonderful support staff and excellent private web-based communication portal. If you aren't located in Santa Barbara, he will work with the court to resolve your case and attend all hearings for you. I highly recommend Bill and his team.

Bill was a godsend after I found myself in a once-in-a-lifetime predicament with serious ramifications. I had never faced such a challenge before, and I was at a loss for how to proceed. While the outcome was not ideal, I have no doubt that Bill did his utmost with the resources at his disposal. Moreover, I felt confident that I was in good hands and that he was an honorable and trustworthy advocate for my case.
I have so much respect for Mr. Makler. He got integrity, knowledge about the system, work ethic and professionalism that is rare to find these days. I felt like he and his team truly cared about my case and fought for me and I’m happy about the outcome. He did his job right and I can’t thank him enough!!!
