William ("Bill") A. Repaske became a partner with the firm on January 1, 1993.   He moved to "Of Counsel" (semi-retired) status on January 1, 2022. He still maintains a general practice, including domestic and family law, personal injury, successions, real estate and general litigation. 

Bill completed the 42 hour mediator training program at the Strauss Institute for Dispute Resolution at Pepperdine University.  Although he has not acted as a mediator, the training has proven instrumental in successfully settling cases through the mediation process.

In addition to his law degree, Bill has an undergraduate degree with majors in plant ecology (Botany-Bacteriology) and animal behavior (Zoology), and a master's degree in swamp ecology (Botany). Prior to entering the field of law, Bill was a field biologist at the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory on the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Plant (now Savannah River Site) in Aiken, South Carolina, where he was studying the effects of thermal water discharges into Cypress-Tupelo swamps. 

Bill is an avid motorcyclist and photographer in his spare time.
