Josh represented me in an employment discrimination case and helped me achieve an outcome. I am very satisfied! He listens. He is compassionate. Most of all he is brilliant.
"Mr. Williams is a passionate and deeply knowledgeable litigator who I have found to be generous with his time and counsel. In the past few months, I've come across a number of clients with complex employment issues, and have turned to Mr. Williams for help understanding them. In each case he quickly set the matter straight for me. He has helped me and my clients tremendously, and we are better off for his counsel. Thanks Josh!"
"Josh is a brilliant litigator who makes a habit of playing chess while the other side plays checkers. Straight shooter. Highly recommend to anyone who has suffered a civil rights violation."
"Josh has a a passion and commitment to advocating for his clients that is largely unrivaled in the legal community. Not only is Josh a highly competent and talented attorney, but he is also down to earth and enjoyable to work with. I refer any individuals with civil rights issues to him without any hesitation."
"I have known Josh as a good friend and colleague for several years, and as a fellow attorney I know I can refer employment and civil rights clients to him with the utmost confidence."
