About William
Biography
I have over thirty years of experience litigating complex domestic and international white-collar cases. I have won more than a dozen jury trials in complex cases in Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and Texas. Those cases involved: bid rigging, bribery, corruption, conspiracy to defraud, extortion, mail fraud, obstruction, price fixing and wire fraud charges. I have litigated complex sentencing issues involving over $60 million in economic harm and prevailed in plea negotiations where my clients walked away without being charged. While past performance does not, in any way, guarantee future results, I do have extensive experience in complex federal criminal matters and can assist clients who are subjects or targets of federal investigations into white-collar crime.
