an advocate for women everywhere

I hired Courtney to represent me when I was unfairly dismissed as a senior executive with a large firm. My case was complicated and there was a lot in the line. I loved that Courtney not only did her homework when it came to my case specifics (of which I cannot disclose) but she was a formidable repr...esentative for my case. She understands the harsh realities many women face in the workplace. Courtney is an advocate for women and has devoted her career to represent women who have been harassed, faced gender bias, and sexually harassed. Furthermore, she's seen first hand how women have been retaliated against in the workplace and she will fight for you.

Top notch

Courtney, from start to finish, was responsive, assertive, knowledgeable, and a formidable opponent to opposing council. She made clear, succinct, well-researched arguments, consistently met deadlines, and always made me feel like I was her only client. Whenever I was about to go off the rails, he...r strength and conviction quickly brought me back to reality. I am forever in her debt!

Dissappointing and strange experience

I meet with Courtney Williams for an initial consultations. She seemed authentic when she communicated my option and said that she would take my case and that she advocated for a contengency with the partners, because I had a strong case. She explained the next steps, gave me paper work, told me to ...email her with any questions. I followed through as she instructed and I never heard from her again. I called and emailed several time with no response. The receptionist Judith covers for her and say she's in meetings and she will get a message to her. I called one last time to try to assertain what happened.. and got no response. This type of action is what gives the legal industry a bad name... So my message to Courtney is treat people the way you want to be treated. I don't recommend that you waist your time with this firm. They came recommended to me from another attorney who had a conflict of interest... I went back and told my experience and the attorney was shocked. He advice me to call Peter, I thought about it and decided to go with another firm... why would I give that firm an opportunity to make money off me.. Shame on you Courtney.. you should represent women better in the work place.
