My experience with Bill Bianco was minimally acceptable.

I never got the feeling he was fully committed to our case, in which my daughter was bit by a loose dog. On several occasions, I would ask direct questions via email and receive no answer. This is just completely unprofessional behavior.

During our settlement negotiations, the insurance adjuster asked if we had looked into a scar revision surgery. Bill forwarded the question over to us, at which time we scheduled a consultation with a plastic surgeon. The plastic surgeon claimed the surgery would cost 10K. The settlement was increased by 10K immediately. Why on earth didn't Bill have us do this before being asked by the insurance adjuster? Thankfully we were working with a pretty noble insurance adjuster. If it wasn't for the insurance adjuster, I am certain Bill wouldn't have had us look into scar revision surgery.

Unfortunately, the letter the doctor wrote was very unprofessional. It was a non-formatted single paragraph letter without a letterhead or a doctor's signature. In hindsight, I should have questioned it. Bill did send the letter back to the doctor for a signature, but he should have probably questioned the quality of the letter as well given its overall lack of information. This is what I would expect from any advisor charging THOUSANDS of dollars for his or her expertise.

The surgery quote was less than half of what it cost in reality. The surgery had no complications. There is no doubt in my mind the doctor just threw something together and never actually called the hospital and anesthesiologist to get actual quotes.

With the prices lawyers demand, I expect them to be thorough and expertly guide people through the process. While we did get through the process, I believe Bill Bianco probably cost my daughter at least 10K in her personal injury lawsuit.

I would never use Bill Bianco in the future, and would not recommend him.

I am giving him 2 stars because we did actually get some kind of resolution. I am sure I could have had a worse experience.
