Excellent Attorney!

Attorney Williamson is an extremely intelligent, dedicated and detail oriented lawyer. Complimenting her vast knowledge of the legal system is her above par interpersonal skills which made difficult situations, such as my divorce, bearable. She was extremely organized and made me feel as if I was i...n control of the outcome of my case. She worked completely around my schedule, even meeting with me on the weekends. She kept me continuously updated on the status of my case. Never once did she make me chase her down. Divorces are extremely sensitive and difficult, especially when children are involved, but she handled my feelings delicately and wanted only the best outcome for me and my children. I highly recommend her to anyone going through any kind of legal situation. It is without a doubt that Ms. Williamson is deserving of her high standing in the legal community.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
