Everything we desire in an attorney!
Consultations with Attorney Douglas Williams were extremely beneficial. When we are most vulnerable, what we desire is an attorney who has experience and expertise, listens well, shows respect and demonstrates compassion for those in need.

WOW that worked
So I could not afford an attorney but had a TON of time off during COVID because I was laid off at the Union so I was not allowed to even find other work. He gave me legal advice and I did the legal legwork as he advised me. Now I have custody of my son! Nice!

An absolutely amazing immigration lawyer
I hired Douglas Williams to be my immigration attorney and it was one of the smartest things I ever did. I have been in the US for 42 years and had a permanent resident alien card that they no longer issue as I was 6 when I came to the US from England with my parents. He took care of everything, filled out the forms and all I had to do was give my information and show up for appointments. He is extremely knowledgeable in his profession and I can proudly say I am now an American citizen. Thank you Doug for making it so easy.

Great Man, Great Attorney
Mr. Williams is kind and passionate. He knows the law and helps even a novice feel more confident in their situations. While I ended up not needing to hire an attorney, I cannot be more appreciative of the time and care he took during our consultation.

Best Immigration Lawyer!!
There is not another immigration lawyer that is as good or knowledgeable as Dough Williams! His experience and knowledge about immigration law and the process made is so much easier for me to understand what was happening during my case. He is also very responsive and thorough . His reputation is stellar in this field . He came highly recommended and I am so appreciative of the expertise with which he handled my case.

Best Divorce Advice Ever
Douglas guided me through the roughest time in my life. With his help I got custody of my son from an abusive woman. Hard for a man to get custody with only a consultant but we pulled it off. Instead of me shelling out $1052.75 per month I receive $215.06 per month. Yeah maybe it’s not fair but it’s nearly a $1,300.00 per month difference and I no longer have to support someone who used me as income while refusing to work and being abusive to my son.

Very Personable and Knowledgeable
Mr. Williams had a vast wealth of knowledge and was very courteous. He did an outstanding job with my case, and I will refer him to anyone.

The right choice, Douglas S. Williams (Attorney at Law)
Doug Williams represented my daughter for both a felony (drug) and misdemeanor (petty theft) charge. We had our first meeting at his Deland office which was closest to our home. He let us tell our story and he listened closely taking notes and asking questions. He demonstrated a very professional attitude and made us feel comfortable and confident that we selected the right Lawyer. He met with both myself and my daughter privately relaying strategy and results. He was available anytime we had questions. He has surrounded himself with a fine staff that made several courtesy calls and were polite and friendly. Doug Williams went right to work getting the felony thrown out and worked with the state attorneys office to get my daughter the best result on the misdemeanor. In the courtroom, Doug showed poise and control and was completely organized. The judge in the case had very good interaction with him which made me feel that Doug has excellent experience both with the client and in the courtroom. I won't hesitate calling him in the future if needed.
