CRIMINAL DEFENSE Mr. Williams has always shown a desire to provide a voice for the poor, injured and often forgotten members of our society. This desire led him to work for two of the largest defense firms in Los Angeles County as a government appointed defense attorney. While working in this capacity, Mr. Williams stood out as a remarkable trial attorney, receiving recognition for his willingness to try any type of case and often winning the ?unwinnable? case.

Mr. Williams recognizes the insurance claims process can be very stressful and confusing, but he is equipped with the knowledge and training necessary to successfully navigate through the grueling process. He utilizes the training and experience he received as a claims adjuster to help his clients maximize their settlements. MOCK TRIAL Mr. Williams never planned on becoming a trial attorney. However, he had the opportunity to clerk for the Honorable Judge Andrew Kauffman during law school. The clerkship exposed him to a considerable number of criminal and civil jury trials and he quickly fell in love with litigation. With a new found passion, he tried out and was selected to become a member of his law school's mock trial honors program, where he stood out as an advanced advocate. Although Mr. Williams left the mock trial world for real life high stakes jury trials, he maintained a desire to share his successful trial techniques with young advocates. In 2012, Mr. Williams began coaching UCLA's nationally recognized varsity mock trial team. In just his first year, the team finished third in the nation (second in their division) and in year two, they were crowned national champions. Mr. Williams now serves as a consultant to the program., Top 100 National Black Trial Lawyers, https://nbltop100.org/members/van-nuys-ca-antoine-williams-139632555/, 2020
