Dog case dismiss

Recommended lawyer, he managed to dismiss the case about the Dog issue. He is also our lawyer for my Immigration process from my K1 Visa down to getting my green card.

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, fil...led 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.

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 ste...llar in this field . He came highly recommended and I am so appreciative of the expertise with which he handled my case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
