Michael goes above and beyond to evaluate the lawsuit so that we can determine how to proceed. He has settled lawsuits before discovery in some cases when it was warranted.

Hired Attorney Michael J. Williamson

I feel the job he does is excellent and have no complaints with the quality of service and outcome he obtains. My only criticism or complaint is sometimes he is not as quick to respond as I would like but given the workload I am willing to over look this given the job he does do.
