  • "I carry his card on me, because I believe in him and trust him."
    After being arrested for DWI, it is easy to feel lost, scared, confused, and unsure of where to turn for help. Luckily, I was recommended the legal services of Will Mitchell. From the initial consultation until my final court appearance, Will was there for me throughout the entire process. In a very frightening time, Will was able to put me at ease and guide me through a difficult situation. Due to his expertise and dedication, he was able to lessen my charge to a much more favorable outcome. I had multiple consultations before I was directed towards Will, and they all resulted in frustration, fear, and intimidation. I, like many Austin residents, work in the Service Industry, and was not financially able to afford much more than a public defender. His services are invaluable, but reached at a reasonable, flexible rate. I carry his card on me, because I believe in him and trust him.

  • "I will be forever grateful for his hard work."
    Will is not only an incredible attorney, he is an incredible person. He helped me through one of the toughest times of my life and took care of everything so I could calm down and focus on finishing what I needed to finish. He even had my DUI reduced to an obstruction of a highway! I will be forever grateful for his hard work, consistent communication, and incredible knowledge of the legal process. Thank you Will!

  • "I would hire him immediately. Great lawyer, five stars."
    Will Mitchell was friendly, courteous, respectful, and while I always felt welcome to ask questions about my case or even chat about the weather, he never wasted either of our time. He clearly explained the convoluted issues I was facing and how we were going to resolve them, and gave me all the information I needed about the process before I hired him so I could make an informed decision about how I was spending my money. He kept my priorities in mind and worked with me on my financial constraints while being clear on what my money would buy me. But best of all I always got friendly updates on what was happening so I was up to date on my legal status. I hope to never need him again but if I ever find myself in a clusterfuck of unpaid tickets I would hire him immediately. Great lawyer, five stars.

  • "Will Mitchell isn't just a great attorney, he's a great guy."

    Will Mitchell isn't just a great attorney, he's a great guy. He got the case flat-out dismissed. He gave my life back to me. When I had an urgent matter come up, he called me back after-hours on a Sunday. He's just that type of guy. You can trust Will with your life, he's just that type of guy. On top of everything, he didn't break the bank. 10/10 Would recommend to anyone that's in a jam and needs a legal Superman to come to the rescue!
