Excellent Service

I received excellent legal service from Atty. Anthony Williams. He represented me well in my case that the charge was dismissed and highly recommend him to be your representative. Thanks Atty. Anthony!

Excellent Lawyer.

My name is Hadidja. Mr. Williams was excellent in defending my case which seemed complicated to other lawyers. Some lawyers refused to represent me, but Mr. Anthony Charles Williams did not hesitate. At the trial he was able to see the little details in the testimonies before anyone else. Of course t...he victory was ours. I would recommend him and his staff to anyone.

Pruitt's case

Mr. Williams assisted me with my assault and batter charge. I was found innocent on charge and protective order was dismissed. I am very glad I hired him. He was aggressive and very good. Thanks for your service.

Five stars

Mr. Williams obtained a not guilty verdict for me. Of course I was not guilty but the courts will railroad you if you don't have an experienced attorney. I know he handled my case in a professional manner.

Above And Beyond

I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Williams for several months on a complex case involving a will. He's gone above and beyond anything I could've wished from an attorney. He's made sure that everything has been done with precision , has taken much burden off my shoulders, and been a comf...ort during this difficult time. He's the best attorney I've ever worked with and I can't stress this enough. His staff is also very caring and helpful and right on task. Mr. Williams has paid a great honor and respect to the World War 2 hero that we've jointly been working to lay to rest over the past several months. He's a wonderful man and credit to the U.S.M.C.
