About Attorney Awards

Biography

Mr. Williams was first drawn to the law out of a genuine fascination with the legal system and its vital role in society. The prospect of courtroom advocacy and the intellectual challenge of legal argument appealed to him from the start. After many years in practice, however, what Mr. Williams has come to value most is something far more personal — the opportunity to help real people navigate difficult situations and find meaningful solutions to their problems. It is that commitment to his clients, and the difference he is able to make in their lives, that continues to drive his passion for the practice of law.

Professional Experience

Mr. Williams graduated from Creighton University School of Law in 1996 and has been practicing law full time ever since. Throughout his career, he has focused primarily on family law and criminal defense, spending considerable time in courtrooms throughout the State of Utah, including numerous trials before juries and the bench. In March of 2026, Mr. Williams joined Cordell & Cordell to focus solely on family law.
