Millennium - A Marquis Who’s Who Magazine LAW AND LAW ENFORCEMENT has trained and mentored several young clerks and lawyers who have gone on to become successful in their own right. Through her guidance, up-and-coming attorneys are taught that each legal case should be approached with good intention, and they should not be haltered or influenced by outcomes of prior cases, whether good or bad. To wit, Ms. Williams wholeheartedly believes that law is among the most honorable professions and should not be taken lightly. Throughout her career, which has spanned across more than four decades, she has learned that the law acts as a collective force that drives each life, as well as society as a whole. Outside of her legal career, Ms. Williams continues to serve as a guest speaker at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, the Mount Olive Church of God and the Bethlehem Church of God. As a testament to her resounding success in her career, she was selected as an Outstanding Recent Graduate of the Emory University School of Law on two occasions, as well as selected for inclusion in Best Attorneys in America by Rue Ratings in 2017. Named among Great Women of the 21st Century as well, she was further recognized as one of Lawyers of Distinction from 2017 to 2018. Looking toward the future of her life and career, Ms. Williams would like to expand the reach of the Law Firm of Williams & Associates and delve further into business management and the criminal justice system. She attributes her success to the influence of her parents, who taught her the significance of the preservation of humankind regardless of an individual’s ethnicity or gender. In her spare time, she enjoys studying Egyptology, archaeology and anthropology; collecting artwork and plants; and performing poetry. 271
