Mike Williams

Mike was very nice to work with and did a great job for us. After 28 years of working for one company, my wife faced a layoff and was unable to find full-time employment. After depleting our savings and much of our retirement plans, we chose to file bankruptcy. Mike was very pleasant, non-judgemen...tal, and made the process as easy as possible. He represented us in a very professional way and the Trusteee ruled in our favor.

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.
