Courtroom appearances are often the cause of anxiety and grief. If you are lucky enough to be on the docket before Judge Wes Williams, you can count on fair treatment with competence and compassion.

It’s reassuring to be treated with courtesy. Judge Williams makes every effort to understand your circumstances, to see that your case is being judged fairly with a thorough knowledge of the law.

Consider the candidates. It’s important to keep Wes Williams, a valued and experienced judge, in District 10.
