About:
I’m a Native South Carolinian. I grew up on the rural outskirts in the midlands of South Carolina. Growing up I enjoyed fishing for bream, bass, and catfish. A good day in the country was spent riding bikes, eating boiled peanuts, swimming in the Edisto River, and tending to Brahma cows. I attended a small high school and my focus was always furthering my education. Why I Pursued Law After graduating from high school, I went on to the University of South Carolina, proud to be a Gamecock fan. Shortly after my freshman year I was held up at gunpoint and carjacked. It was a frightening ordeal, but in the end I "made lemonade out of lemons" and decided to pursue a career in Criminal Justice. I completed an internship in the SC State House and another internship at the Richland County Drug Court. I was so excited about the prospect of being a lawyer that I graduated in three and a half years from USC with a 3.7 GPA by taking summer school courses (that, combined with my AP credits from high school). I always had some kind of part time job. I babysat before I was old enough to work. I was incredibly driven and realized quickly the harder I worked, the more I accomplished. I worked in a small ladies clothing store, Hallmark card stores, was an academic tutor in college, helped students with disabilities, had holiday employment at the mall, and even landed a job as a courier at a small law firm (Tompkins and McMaster Law Firm in Columbia, South Carolina). That little law firm had some powerful lawyers that encouraged and inspired me. I ended up getting into law school and I knew I would be happy doing exactly what I enjoyed. And I was right. I was the first lawyer, and first lady lawyer in the history of my family. And I wasn't finished making history. Hard work pays off.

"I could write a book on the positive experience of hiring Susan Williams. The week before Christmas we had a party for my brother’s girlfriend’s child’s birthday. My significant other had has children at the party and his estranged wife of 6 years makes her way to our house at the end of the party, caused a scene, spits in his face and when told to leave made false allegations of abuse. This resulted in a general sessions CDV 1 charge against him. The last 8 months have been an absolute nightmare of wondering if he is going to spend ten years in prison for something he didn’t do. Susan reassured us and went to battle for him. She is representing us for the multiple trespassing violations that the alleged victim has committed since we had to put one in place to keep her from coming to our home at all hours of the day and night. Susan’s knowledge, experience and guidance has made this nightmare go away with a full dismissal of a general sessions charge and she is handling the expungement of this from his record, I highly recommend hiring Susan Williams!"
