About
I reside in Kernersville, Forsyth County, North Carolina, with my wife of 17 years, Susan Rogers Apple, who is a Senior Vice-President of Pinnacle Financial Partners (formerly High Point Bank, then Bank of North Caroliina). I have four children: Mara Apple O'Neil of Reidsville, NC; the late Lindsay Katharine Apple; Katherine Elizabeth Howell of Champaign, IL; and William Lawson Howell of Greensboro, NC. Mara is the mother of our three grandchildren, Avery, Ella and Thomas. I am a retired United States Air Force JAG Lt. Col., having served 3 years of active duty and an additional 23 years as an Air Force Reservist. As a long-time member of Lions International, I have now served 4 terms as a Lions Club President, with 3 of those being in my original hometown of Reidsville, NC, and 1 in our hometown of Kernersville, NC. I have professionally served as liason between the Family Law Section Council and the Dispute Resolution Council of the NC Bar Association. As a certified mediator by the NC Dispute Resolution Commission, I perform mediations in District Court family financial settlement (domestic) cases, Superior Court cases, civil matters before the Clerk of Superior Court, and civil matters before the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. My interests include our beloved Cavichon, Molly, learning to play the guitar, music of all genres (including bluegrass), and time on the Grand Strand of South Carolina (with Molly, of course!).

Over the last 2 years Mr. Apple has helped me with various legal issues. His personal attentiveness to my legal counsel needs has been exceptional. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal guidance. Thank You Mr. Apple!
Mr. Apple has always been there to help when I have needed him. Is he attorney who truly cares.
Mr. Apple has always been excellent to deal with. He takes the time to listen to his client's needs. I would recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice.
Bill and his staff were wonderful. Very professional and very accommodating. They took care of my needs in an unusual short period of time
Mr. Apple helped us with a prenuptial agreement. He and his office staff were quick to work us in and worked within our time constraints. Price was fair and the documents had everything we requested on the first go around. Positive experience and would recommend to others!
Bill Apple has always been more than an attorney who was out for the buck. He has always been sympathetic, caring, cordial, and caring. It has always been obvious that money and fees were always secondary to relationships. I guess that's why I suspect that most of his clients consider him to be "their attorney" instead of just "an attorney." I'm proud to call him both "my attorney" and "my friend."
Bill is always attentive, honest, professional and dedicated to his clients and putting their interest first. It has been my please to work with Bill and many different capacities, and find him to be the most detailed and hard working professionals I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with.
Was able to utilize Mr. Apple's expertise in both Family and Personal Injury in the past 12 months. Experiencing the death of a parent along with the responsibility of insuring their last wishes were honored was made so much more manageable because Mr. Apple handled every aspect of the process allowing me time to grieve my loss. During this same grieving time frame, my son was injured in a serious rear-end collision . With just one phone call, Mr. Apple took the lead and was with my family until the case was settled. Mr. Apple was the attorney for my parents - he has been my attorney for more than 25 years and now he is my son's attorney. When you have the best - you stay with it.
He helped rewrite our will to accomplish the things we wanted to happen. This was somewhat difficult because ours is a second marriage with separate grown children and grandchildren. He was careful to check on all the details and helpful in making corrections until we got what we wanted.
Mr. Apple has helped us with several legal issues and every time he has been very caring and honest. He is knowledgeable in his field and if there is an area outside of his expertise, he can connect you with another lawyer who can assist. Mr. Apple helped us to write our wills, POA, and has also helped with some other family legal issues. His legal advice is sound and honest, and in every instance, we knew that what he was telling us was in our best interest. Hands down, he is a professional and a very dedicated lawyer who will go the extra mile for his clients. His sense of justice and fairness stands out from the crowd and he is our go-to attorney. For these reasons, we highly recommend him for all of your legal needs.
