About Bill Handel

Bill Handel's weekend show, "Handel on the Law," is bold, entertaining and addictive. Bill definitely knows his way around our wacky American legal system, and with a quick wit and razor sharp tongue, offers up advice to countless callers on a weekly basis. Syndicated nationally, Handel has amassed a loyal fan base that continues to grow. Bill Handel has been able to couple his passion for talk radio with his experience as a lawyer and the result is a unique blend of information and humor.

"Handel on the Law began broadcasting in 1985. I enjoy it more today than the day I started. Abusing callers, giving marginal legal advice and telling callers where to go is still probably the most enjoyable thing I do other than having intimate moments with my wife...No...It is the most enjoyable thing I do."

--Bill Handel

Heard on KFI AM 640 - the most listened to news/talk station in America- the show features Bill's unique perspective on topical issues and pop culture.
