Simone Alston Williams

I hired Ms. Williams to represent me in a divorce case involving my military spouse. From the beginning, I expressed that my primary concern was the well-being of my children and being able to remain in my home. Unfortunately, I feel that my case was handled with negligence. Ms. Williams failed to... provide timely and essential information to help me prepare for court — for example, I was not advised in advance to obtain an appraisal for my home. As someone who does not go through divorce proceedings regularly, I depended on my attorney for guidance. This lack of communication nearly cost me my home. To make matters worse, Mr. Williams filed a lien against my property claiming I owed legal fees, which I dispute. Even after she was fully paid, the lien remained on my home and took over a year to be removed. In my opinion, Mr. Williams showed a lack of integrity and professionalism throughout the process. She appeared more focused on financial gain than on advocating for my interests. I would not recommend her services to others seeking compassionate and responsible legal representation.

Once hired -Very bad with returning emails and phone calls. She told me she was filing my case but instead went on vacation for a week. She didn't inform me she was going away and I didn't find out until I tried to reach her to follow-up on the status of my filing. She was not organized. When she ret...urned it was too late, so we lost jurisdiction! I asked her what are we going to do now and her response was "I don't know what you are going to do. You need to try to find an attorney in that jurisdiction." I had to go to that jurisdiction to file my own paperwork at the courthouse!!! She did finish out my case however, my case still has lingering issues and I don't feel comfortable reaching out to her because my experience was so bad. I would not recommend her services unless you are ready take on the work yourself!

I paid 3k and the only thing she did is continued my child support case for the whole 2022 year. Than smile in your face and next thing you get a letter from her requesting from the courts not to represent you anymore after you express disappointment because its been lingering for a whole year almos...t. In return you receive from her a email talking bout her rates and how much she charged but the only thing she have been doing is pushing your court case back. I got the job done by representing myself. She don't care about Father Rights it's just another day in the office and easy money for her. I could have saved my money and just represented myself. She'll make it sound good at 1st. She lay out the plan and everything when you give her the money. Next thing when you court she be telling something totally different. She'll request a continous lol. It's funny now but I'll never give her any more of my money ever again .. I wouldn't do this but it's the principle now and I can't let this one ride. She doesn't have a steady office. She always moving somewhere. She all over the place. She need to tighten up. Prepare to take a L if you use her

I hired Simone Williams for my custody and child support case. She did NOT fight so that I could have complete shared/joint custody of my child and with child support, I had provided her the discrepancies of my sons mother paperwork where she falsified documentation and clearly explained to her what ...I expected during court. Simone did NOTHING during my court case and basically worked for the plaintiff. She did NOT show nor argue what proof we had and allowed them to come up with a bogus child support payment for me. Simone is worthless, a liar, and very incompetent when it comes to working for her clients. She was quick to take my money in both cases but didn’t quickly put forth the effort to defend me in which I paid her to do. Knowing her personally, I expected more from her but once she got a divorce, she became scorned and bitter. I would NOT recommend using Simone Williams for anything because you will NOT win.

See terrible, worthless, misled and disappointed comments. I started out feeling like Ms. Williams was very capable and felt things would be handled in a proffesional and timely manner. Unfortunately, it soon became apparent this was not the case! Ms. Williams was unorganized and not prepared for m...y case. I feel she mislead me on several occasions, did not return emails or phone messages. She overcharged and mishandled my case, costing me a considerable amount of money. Ms. Williams showed no concern for my case and demonstrated a complete lack of integrity. did not fight for my rights or even inform, me. expected me to know the law and the process. refused to have a prep meeting prior to mediation. Did not provide legal advice during mediation. Basically was a $400 per hr clerk. I do not trust simone all she wants is the money and I had the most terrible experience having her as a lawyer.
