William Parry is a licensed speech-language pathologist who previously overcame his own stuttering to become a successful trial lawyer. He received his law degree from the University of Pennsylvania Law School, where he was an Editor of the Law Review. He earned his Master's Degree in Speech, Language and Hearing Science from Temple University. He is certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and is licensed in Pennsylvania and more than a dozen other states. For the past dozen years, he has provided Valsalva Stuttering Therapy by video conferencing where permitted by law.

After struggling most of his life with severe stuttering, Parry became frustrated with existing theories and therapies, which had not helped him to either understand or control his stuttering. Consequently, he began his own research and experimentation, which resulted in his "Valsalva Hypothesis" (published in the Journal of Fluency Disorders in December 1985) and a new therapeutic approach. This dramatically improved his fluency, which opened up his legal career.

Parry founded the Philadelphia Area Chapter of the National Stuttering Association in 1985 and led its support group meetings for 17 years. He served for six years on the Board of Directors of the National Stuttering Association and as Chair of its Advocacy Committee. He has given workshops and presentations on the Valsalva Hypothesis at national conferences of the NSA in the United States, the British Stammering Association, and the International Stuttering Association.
