Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.It’s not often you run across someone whose best interest is truly with the child. If you need someone to fight for your babies Candace is the one. She doesn’t care if you’re mom or dad if she believes the child’s in danger she coming. You’ll never feel alone at this office. You’ll receive updates and easy communication. She is fast and efficient.
She can take the information that you give her and get the big picture without you having to explain all the little details. She is very strong and stands up for what's right. She is very honest. She is smart and very professional! She is very empathetic, but also stands up for what's right and won't tolerate things not being done right. She is confident and you can tell she knows what she's doing. She does very well in court. Can very clearly convey what is needed and when you speak with her, you can tell her priority is family. I am so thankful to have her as my lawyer. I highly recommend her.
I appreciate all that Candace and her team did for me and my divorce. She showed kindness through very fair legal fees and paid attention to every detail from my questions to the actual settlement. It was the best treatment anyone could ask for given the situation I was facing. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce.
I highly recommend Candace and her team. Candace worked with me through a very sticky custody situation. Through what I knew was not going to be an easy change in custody situation, since my ex continued to throw high conflict into the mix, Candace expertly and compassionately worked to get the best possible outcome for my daughter. She always responded to emails and texts quickly, even when I didnt expect it (like on holidays or vacations) and kept me in the loop regarding everything that was going on in the case. The whole process took over a year, however, in the end, Candace, through her wealth of knowledge and compassionate expertise both in the court room and out, brought to light all the issues that needed to be seen and heard in order to truly make my daughter the focus in everything and get her and me the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce or custody situation.
Candace and her team were amazing! I always heard from her DAY OF anytime she heard from ex-husband's lawyer. She takes the time to explain everything so that I understood exactly what was going on. My divorce was officially finalized within 4 months of my first chat with Ms. Williams. She has a TON of experience and knows what she's doing. Fortunately, I had a very amicable split - my only regret is that I didn't get to see her in action in the courtroom. I've heard it's a sight to behold! Can't recommend her team enough!
BEST OF THE BEST! From day one, the well-being of my children and myself was a priority to the entire team. I was met with an abundance of kindness, compassion, and understanding for my unique situation. Candace is extremely passionate about family, and it shows in every aspect of her work. She is always a step ahead and ready to fight for her clients. She won’t hesitate to be brutally honest while also going above and beyond to make this process as painless as possible. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, Candace is definitely the one you want in your corner.
Candace and her team are truly the best family law team around. Modifying custody as a father is a very scary prospect. One where it seems we are behind the eight ball from the beginning. The uncertainty of finding a lawyer who will not only entertain the idea of petitioning for primary custody, but will do so with vigor and tenacity is stressful. Candace and her team actively listen and provide realistic expectations and guidance. They take a genuine interest in their cases and go above and beyond to ensure the outcome is the best for you and your family situation. Through every step of the process, Candace and her team are just a quick call, text, or email away. They always respond promptly and with well-reasoned answers. Candace is a fighter. She is always professional, always polite, and always prepared to go to bat for her clients. She is fair and unbiased with her counsel, and she isn't afraid to shoot straight with an uncooperative party.
I used Candace in my divorce. She has been practicing for a long time. She was responsive and typically contacted me back the same day. Candace was extremely organized for mediation, she even prepared a mediation summary. She does this personally and prepared me for mediation in advance. I felt secure, I felt like I was in good hands. Even the mediator praised Candace for being so organized and commenting on how she was the best lawyer the mediator had worked with. My case settled, she was reasonable, and I got a refund. I saw another review about Candace charging clients, she is not all about the money, she gave me a discount for being a teacher and then give me a discount because my dad paid my retainer and he is a veteran. Plus I got money back. I think this person was fake and posted anonymously because she knows her stuff.
Candace Williams is the best lawyer around. She is knowledgeable, personable and she gets the job done. Candace handle a modification for me last year. The other attorney was very unreachable and difficult to communicate with. Candace did not let my case sit without any action. she set the deadlines, she did discovery, she scheduled mediation, and luckily we settled without having to go to court. Be careful who you pick. Make sure your attorney is responsive, and available. There’s so many out there they’re just practicing and doing whatever they want without a regard for human beings. Thank you Candace for being so caring, attentive and reasonable. That police discount was great!
Candace is great! While living through the chaos of separation and divorce, Candace made me feel confident about my case which offered some peace during the difficult times. She knows the law and is very compassionate. She fights to win for you and doesn't back down.
