William is one of the kindest attorneys I've worked with. Very knowledgeable and knows what he is talking about. He will walk you through the process as needed. Not only did William take on an employment dispute for my family and I, most importantly, he took on a personal animal abuse case for us that was very hard to go through. It was also very gently handled as it was regarding my young daughter's service animal and a puppy that was killed. In both situation the outcome was much better than I was anticipating. Most importantly there was closure both, emotionally and mentally. If you are looking for someone that will take on your dispute understandingly, William is who you will want to go through

Mr. Rideg was so knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate to what had happened, and was still happening with our horses in an Equine abuse related incident. He guided us through every step of pursuing charges against the other party, kept us informed, and responded to all questions we had in a very fast manor. We are extremely happy with the work that he put in, to insure we were happy with the settlement outcome. We HIGHLY recommend Mr. Rideg at Rideg Law for any Equine related issues.

Bill was a voice of reason and advocacy when I was dealing with my emotional animal law situation.

I would use him again in the future if the need arises.

I recently hired Mr. William Rideg for the second time. He, once again, was always honest and kept me informed about the progress in the case. He achieved a very positive outcome in the case and I am quite happy with the results and the time frame in which he was able to resolve a difficult case.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ – Second times a charm, Bill is my first choice!

If you are looking for legal representation and are on the fence, I highly reccomend Rideg Law Office, especially Bill!


I chose to schedule a consultation with him after reading the Google reviews. After meeting him it was clear that I made the right decision.


At first I was not sure of the outcome or retaliation that may arise from me seeking legal representation. Then after the first consultation, I became less afraid and more confident that what happened to me was not meaningless. I know I was wronged, I felt it too, but the legal process was something I wasn’t sure I could aford. Bill offered me his services while providing me a financial option that would work with my life, and it made all the difference!


This was something Bill didn’t have to do, but rather chose to do, I won’t forget his help.

Bill added wisdom, gave me a legal voice, and support throughout the entire process (half of it being out of state). He was very responsive by email and phone and truly understands the emotional and mental side that surrounds the legal process.



If I just went in representing myself as an former employee, it would not have been nearly as successful, nor would I have had the invaluable insights he provided me. Bill stood beside me, reviewed the evidence and presented the legal injustices that occured. This helped my previous employer know that I am not with out power to defend myself. I am so thankful for what he and his office has done to represent me and now I can move forward with my life!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ – Always quick to help

There is no one that comes to mind quicker than William Rideg for legal services. Always quick to help with a kind, yet professional demeanor; Mr. Rideg went the extra mile for me when I was being mistreated and found a solution that I couldn’t be happier with. He recognized my need for timely responses and was always able to provide intuitive solutions for difficult problems that just wouldn’t go away. I am so grateful I found him and he will remain the person I immediately think of for legal services. Thank you Mr. Rideg!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ – I tip my hat to you, Mr. Rideg!

I hired William for a child custody case regarding my 3 year old son, Riley. From the beginning, when I was calling around to others lawyers to get estimates for retaining fees, Bill was the only one who answered the phone and spoke to me directly, or if I left a message, he would call me back the same day. At the time I was watching 2-3 children during the day so it was hard for me to make it to his office, so he came to my home which was extremely helpful! Mr. Rideg is an extremely efficient and knowledgable attorney and made me feel so much better about the situation. Another thing I appreciated very much is that he was very prompt to answer phone calls or reply to emails. He genuinely cares about his clients and will do anything to make sure you get the best legal representation possible. I cannot thank him enough for everything he has done for me. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone I know!

First hired Mr. Rideg (Bill) several years back for a landlord tenant dispute which he helped us with, we were very pleased, he has since helped us with several other legal issues that have come up and Bill is always extremely professional but with a very comforting, reassuring attitude that just really puts us at ease which is very important to us because if you have to call a lawyer it seems to be usually over stressful issues.
