Richard Russell Williams

In 2008, I saw Mr. Williams for a consultation on a first time offense. I liked what he said and paid him in full two weeks prior to court. On the day of the court, he showed up and asked me if I still wanted to hire him and when I was going to pay his fees. I told him I already paid his fees. Th...en, I got screwed when we went to court. He told me at our first meeting that I would get 6 months probation and off with good behavior and this wouldn't be on my record since it was a first offense. Then, when we left the court, I received 2 years probation with 1 year jail diversion. I had this on my record for 5 1/2 years until I finally made the list to get it pardoned. I had to check in everyday at the probation office and leave my job and family. I'm in the medical field and this idiot screwed me over with what he said he was going to do and what he Actually really did! I wish I would've went elsewhere. I take Full responsibility for my actions, however, my rights were not protected.
