We’ve worked with Bill Brinckloe at TransActionLaw on two school sales, one in 2021 and another just recently. His experience and knowledge made both transactions smooth. Our latest sale was especially complex — the landlord was selling at the same time, and the first buyer cycled through three attorneys. Bill guided us with clear explanations, quick responses, and steady professionalism. He knew when to move on to a new buyer and cut through unnecessary boilerplate that would have slowed us down. When we switched buyers, he quickly produced a fair, clean agreement that allowed us to close fast. Bill’s ability to focus on what mattered while being personable and easy to work with made a huge difference. We highly recommend him to anyone buying, selling, or negotiating a business.

I would like to sincerely recommend Bill at TransActionlaw for all and any needs you might have in real estate law. My experience with him was one of the most clearly guided and positive process every step of the way. His knowledge in environmental and all areas regarding a lease issue we had with a multi million dollar corporation provided us with a very favorable outcome. A very decent and honest man. A great guy and even greater attorney. Raymond Gassaway

Throughout my long career in commercial real estate I have had the opportunity to work with a number of attorneys providing counsel to me and my associates on real estate and business transactions that we have pursued. The difference with Mr. Brinckloe and most other attorneys; Bill is a problem solver, a deal maker and always has my best interest in mind. My associates and I would not entertain any other attorney than Mr, Brinckloe.

I have worked with TransActionLaw on numerous transactions over the past 11 years, often involving complicated transactions and documents. TransActionLaw is thorough, efficient, and personable, and worked with both me and my clients to craft resolutions bringing together parties, often with conflicting perspectives. I continue to rely on TransActionLaw whenever I need a professional to resolve my most complex legal issues.

We hired William while we were selling a multi-million dollar property using no agents, just buyer/seller. He guided us through the entire process, wrote up the sales agreement and was like a pit bull with details and kept everyone to the letter of each requirement/timeframe. He was fantastic, and really a great guy too. It gave us complete peace of mind during a stressful time over unknown territory. So thankful for Bill!

My firm initially hired TransActionLaw ("TAL") to establish a strategy, prepare all documentation and negotiate two interrelated, complex real estate transactions involving multiple private and public parties (public utility companies & State of California) valued at $45 million to our company. TAL demonstrated leadership, exemplary professionalism and expertise in successfully completing these difficult transactions on behalf of our company. Subsequent to the above, my firm as well as separate companies related thereto, has retained TAL's services to represent our interests on a variety of legal and business-related matters, to include complex financing. TAL's legal expertise, attention to detail, superior business acumen, and, most importantly, trustworthiness, distinguish TAL and were essential to our achieving successful results in numerous matters over many years. Mr. Brinckloe is an attorney's attorney and I highly recommend his services.

Working with Bill and the TransActionLaw team was a very positive experience for us. We were engaged in a very stressful real estate deal and were forced to retain legal representation to protect our interests. Bill provided his legal perspective, explained our options, and calmed our fears. After Bill engaged with all involved parties we were able to secure our property without further issue. Overall, it was very easy dealing with Bill and we achieved our intended outcome. We highly recommend working with Bill and TransActionLaw.
