Great Man and Great Appeals Attorney

Evan has been amazing. I ask him so many things over and over and he will explain the process as many time as I need to hear it to understand. He won my appeal and has since taken every call I have made to him even 6 months later. I really appreciated his knowledge and understanding when it came to m...y case. I would highly recommend him.

Very Informative & Excellent communication

I found Mr. Williams extremely informative. He explained things to me in a way I understood & was very upfront & honest. His communication skills were outstanding & anytime a question arose, he was quick with a response & explanation. He gave me peace of mind & I knew exactly what to expect through...out the whole process. I highly recommend Mr Williams to someone who is involved in an appeal. I without a doubt, know you will be in excellent hands.

Excellent Appellant Attorney

I hired Eric to handle a very complicated Alaska Irrevocable Trust probate appeal for a California probate issue that I had handled in California superior court pro per and prevailed. The other party had deep pockets and were represented by 3 attorney's that would and did lie, cheat or do things leg...al or not to win or benefit there client so they could steal. They filed an appeal after loosing the original case to keep assets and funds that would be used against them out of the trust and to stall for more time. Even is a true professional with integrity and put an end to there games. He states facts with a plan of action that has been researched and communicated to his client the pros and cons so they can decide what is best for them. Evan does not bs his client for more personal gain. I would not hesitate to recommend Evan for any appeal issues or to hire him again if needed.

Excellent attorney

I retained Evan Williams to appeal a civil case that was dismissed for reasons that were beyond my control. After meeting with Evan for the first time, and in discussing the details of my case, there was no doubt in my mind that he would be the right attorney for me. It has been over a year sin...ce I retained his services, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with his work and work ethic. He consistently displays a high level of professionalism, trustworthiness, and integrity that I didn’t know still exists. Unfortunately, not all attorneys share these same qualities. Although this case is of utmost importance to me, Evan has put my mind at ease so that I can continue on with my life while he works on our case. Most importantly, Evan updates me on the case as it moves forward. He patiently and thoroughly explains his ideas and how the law is applied. I highly recommend Evan Williams to anyone looking for an experienced appellate attorney who genuinely cares about his clients.
