Much like most would state he was pleasant, he would offer suggestion of counters to file informing me of rights that I had to fight back, he updated me through his portal of what's going on, he responded for the most part fairly quickly and if you sceduled something on his calendar he made the appt. However if you are looking for leadership I do not recommend him. I've never been in trouble in my life in fact most of my life I've been known as a huge public servant and I've earned influence for my service. I've never been unfaithful in a marriage, never been violent in a marriage, never hit anyone and sincerely try to follow the tenants of my faith, Christianity. Worked my way from being low income to becoming a home owner, father & entrepreneur, did not take government assistance much ever, pay my taxes and love my children. So let's fast forward, my trial was postponed 3X times during COVID19. It's not his fault that happened. It cost me by the end of the trial more than 90% of US salaries to fight for my children just to be in there lives. I initially did not want a divorce but professional evaluations & accountability. My issues w/Williams is this, anything outside of his "system" you're in trouble. If you're okay with taking the basic/min, which is horrible btw for most children and fathers, but if you're okay with just "something" He's prefect. But if there's injustice and he has to really lead the process, then I AM NOT recommending him. Sure he'll share likely scenarios but he's not interested in actually calling plays. Sharing scenarios in NOT the same as fighting for justice. I have multiple examples of this w/him but I'll share a few. #1 he called my witnesses both times at the very last min. & was vague with them on what to expect #2 during the trial there would be accusations that could easily be challenge by saying, "Can you show us proof of this accusations" but he refused. #3 I had clear evidence of things that I not only did not do but could not have remotely done them and relied on him to lead the trial to rebutt it & he said nothing. #4 he allowed witnesses from the other side to testify but did not cross exam them, he just allowed to speak. #5 I had witnesses that were ready to testify that could easily prove accusations were false, he would warn me of a mistrial #6 I paid for professionals that could have spoken to false accusations he wouldn't call them and discouraged me from using them. He appeared to be "picking his battle" with the judge and seemed squeamish with the judge as he feared the judge or some other underlying "thing". He acknowledged often what I was going through appeared unfair and often unfounded but during the trial would state "what was said sounds credible". If you guys could have heard the things he stated were "credible" that had zero proof. I had literally 500 gigabytes of data to prove my evidence from audios, videos, text, images, dated info. What the opposite party had was scarce & could be challenged easily. Again Williams has a predictable system with predictable outcomes but leadership is different then "systems". If you're case is "standard" he's a solid choice, but 20 million adults and 50 million children are dealing with parental alienation, parent kidnapping etc... I'm going to continue fighting for my little ones. But if there's gross negligence, calculated agendas to block you from your child, harmful schemes, I would not recommend Williams to help fight for you or your children in that way. Everyday custody he's cool, but an intentional leader that's figting for justice outside of his comfort zone, that's a no for me. I'm in some ways grateful for a few of the outcomes mainly for me but almost none for my poor little children. I'm going to have to keep fighting for them. I give him a 4 for his "internal legal systems of operation", he also uses technology well to assist clients, but I give him a 1 for leadership and intentional direction and coaching, he's too comfortable to actually fight. He gets a 2 from me and if it wasn't for his systems I'd give him a 1

Absolutely wonderful!

I couldn’t have made a better choice in selecting someone to help me plan for my future. Elsa and Alexandra were extremely helpful in guiding me thru the process. Courteous, pleasant, and professional come to mind in describing my experience.

Attorney Elsa and her team provided excellent service with their estate planning services. It was a bit of a daunting task for me but they guided me every step of the way. I would highly recommend their services for anyone looking to do their estate planning!

I was very nervous about this process,. I wasn't sure how I should proceed with my estate plans, however, Attorney Smith made my estate planning process so much easier than I'd ever expected. She and her assistant worked with me and kept me informed every step. I will highly recommend her to my family and friends,

To all interested parties Elsa W. Smith, LLC is not worthy of a referral nor is there any value for the non refundable $400 consultation fee or one hour of time charged by this firm. It’s very sad that this firm is jeopardizing their integrity and reputation for $400. She’s the world’s worst scammer attorney . You don’t want to be disrespected and lied to by her staff. Most horrible experience is 50 years of using legal professionals. I will file a complaint with the bar association and Consumer advocates so this experience will be on record

Made a phone consultation appt. He n1ever made it, called me 30 minutes after scheduled appt to see if I wanted to schedule another one. No thanks, I need a lawyer I can count on.

I've known Attorney Smith for years and found that she has great passion for her work. She loves helping families get their affairs in order. I often refer clients who need complex estate plans over to Attorney Smith and her team.
