Posted by Joe S. | May 22, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Honest and trustworthy

I consulted with Mr. Williamson after speaking to two other attorneys and didn’t hire him because he was more expensive and he told me that what I wanted as far as my divorce and custody was unreasonable and a judge would never approve. I hired another local attorney who assured me that I could get e...verything that I wanted. After spending close to 10k and having an unfavorable result in my initial divorce and kids custody hearings, I regretted not hiring him. Everything he told me may happen, did. So later when my exwife started being a problem with my kids, I went back to Mr. Williamson. He told me (again) what I needed to do not just to win my case, but to make the best situation for my sons. I’ve never regretted a nickel I spent hiring him. I have used him for the custody of my kids and for another issue with someone not paying a loan they owed me. He is upfront and honest, and won’t just tell you what you want to hear to make a buck. He is very knowledgeable about the law and really cares about his clients. He won’t waste your money.

Amazing lawyer.

Mike is an all around honest man that will tell you how it is and what he can do and what he can not do. He is an amazing attorney and without him my custody case would not have been won.

careless

I went to Mr Williamson for a consultation on regaining visitation for our children. he told us that there was nothing he could do. That regardless we are not going to get visitation rights. We had seen many attorneys prior to him and inquired about the same thing and all of them wanted to take us on.... They thought they could do something about it. Mr Williamson told us we might as well go with one of those other attorneys.after I arrived for my consultation, I knew right away that I was not going to hire him. He had piles of papers everywhere and was very disorganized. But I went through with the consultation anyways and after listening to him I am glad with my decision. I will advise everyone I talk to not to seek legal help from Mr Williamson.

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.
