Patricia Lyda Williams's Lawyer Endorsements
"Patricia Williams is a skilled, compassionate, caring and competent consumer advocate and bankruptcy attorney. I regularly refer my social security disability and workers' compensation clients to Patricia when they find themselves facing bankruptcy. Patricia has extensive experience in both consumer and corporate bankruptcy and is a recognized leader in her fields of practice in the legal community as well as through her pro bono and other volunteer activities in Gwinnett County and the Loganville area. I am confident that any client I refer to Patricia will be provided individualized attention and that she will ensure that they achieve the best possible outcome for their specific situation. It is for these reasons that I endorse Patricia and her work as a consumer bankruptcy attorney."
"Patty is absolutely the most conscientious, reliable, and thorough bankruptcy attorney you could ever hire. She is tops for both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 proceedings and related matters. She gives every client personal attention, and answers emails or phone calls amazingly fast for a busy attorney. In addition, she finds time for positive church and volunteer work. You could not ask for a better attorney if you are seeking help with financial problems. Her demeanor and personality is extremely kind and loving . . .
