Critical review of Ranesha Williams

It was her stellar reviews that gave me what proved to be false confidence in Ranesha, and I had to replace her, successfully. Here, in two links to my homepage, is my two page review. https://russellgordon.photoshelter.com/portfolio/G0000hAzDiWK7iNI/I0000FeMLwfUL86E and https://russellgordon.ph...otoshelter.com/portfolio/G0000hAzDiWK7iNI/I00006.PXDMd8gbg.

Retain without any apprehension!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thoroughly Impressed and pleased with Attorney Williams!! She was diligent, decisive, quick witted, knowledgeable, and will not be bullied or stepped on. My case was a nasty nasty Order of Protection which was completely fabricated and falsified by the opposing party. To say it was ugly is an unde...rstatement. To make a long story short. My case went to trial by judge and this is where Attorney Williams shined. The OOP was thrown out, and I was able to return back to the home I owned, and my ex girlfriend of less than 3 years finally moved out, thanks to the efforts of Attorney Williams. She will give you the straight truth and advice. You may not like it, but I would encourage you to listen to her advice. I give Attorney Williams my highest recommendation.

Right Hand Attorney

I meet with attorney Rahnesha Williams a while back when I was in need of a attorney for a criminal case that was pending. At that time I spoke to several different attorneys about my case and chose to go with a different attorney at the time to save a couple dollars. Months down the line after... hiring a attorney that seem to be doing nothing for my case, I contacted Ms.Williams again and spoke with her, to my surprise she remembered who was after all those months! (Attorneys see and meet people everyday so it’s easy to be forgotten) We then spoke about my case, she went over EVERY PEICE of evidence, pulled records from several different counties and walked me over every step. She gave me honest truth and didn’t sugarcoat things for me. She covered each one of my concerns that my previous attorney didn’t do. If you are looking for a SERIOUS attorney who loves to win and fight for her clients, I would highly recommend Rahnesha Williams. The way she pays attention to details in a case is close to scary! She’s not the type to sweet talk you just receive a payment like I’ve seen other attorneys do, she is very honest , hard working attorney! Do not let her age fool you. She is very knowledgeable also the way she represents her clients in and out the courtroom is amazing! All my chargers were dismissed and I CANT thank Rahnesha ENOUGH for all the effort and time she put into my case! AGAIN, if you are looking for a attorney in a criminal misdemeanor, DUI or traffic case and you want the best outcome.. look no further! I will always highly recommend her and the law firm for anyone with legal issues.

Amazing Attorney! highly recommended!

I called Durango & Cain LLC in Rockford, IL over a parking ticket I received in Cherry Valley. The judge assigned a bench trial over it. I talked to Ms. Williams about my situation, she was very helpful, professional, and confident about handling the situation. She showed up at the trial, got me in t...o see the judge right away, and the ticket ended up getting dismissed within less than a minute of standing before the judge. She had also made calls prior to the trial, to the prosecutors office, asking that the fines be minimized. Even though the crime was petty, she stayed on it and things worked out in my favor. I highly recommend Ms. Williams and I will be consulting her in the future with any legal help I might need.
