Auto Accident

I was rear-ended in an auto accident and injured as a result. The car I was driving was owned by someone else. Knowing that the person who hit me had no insurance, I had no Idea that I was able to be compensated by the uninsured/under insured portion of my own auto policy but that of the policy of th...e owner of the car I was driving as well until I had my free consultation with Mr Williams. In great detail he explained how all that worked and in the end he was able to get me a more than fair recovery from the insurance companies for my injury. I would recomend Jim to anyone who was in the same situation as I was.

Extremely satisfied

Attorney Williams represented me for injuries I sustained in an automobile accident while 7 1/2 months pregnant. He kept me well informed of all the events surrounding my case. He answered all of my questions and assured me the best possible service. In the end I came out with a great settlement a...nd even greater satisfaction.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
