Mr. Williams designed and developed this tool, LiveImmigration, as a tool to work more closely with his clients. He is a licensed attorney who has practiced law for over 40 years. He has practiced employment-based immigration law for over 30 years. Mr. Williams prides himself in being an innovative thinker in both his legal practice as well as in other areas:
- While still a 3rd year undergraduate student at the University of Virginia Mr. Williams designed and carried out two law and psychology studies – BOTH of which were published in peer-reviewed journals
- “Effect of Mode of Adjudication, Presence of Defense Counsel, and Favorability of Verdict on Observers’ Evaluation of a Criminal Trial” Austin, Williams, Worchel, Wentzel and Siegel. Journal of Applied Social Psychology,11:4 pp. 281-300 August, 1981
- “A Survey of Judges’ Responses to Simulated Legal Cases: Research Note on Sentencing Disparity” Austin & Williams. The Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology, 68:2 pp. 306-310 June, 1977
While studying the inefficiency of motion of reciprocating pistons, heI developed a transmission which converted both directions of input motion (forward and reverse; clockwise and counter-clockwise) into a reversible, single-direction output motion. That concept was embodied into a socket wrench that continued the rotational drive of the socket in the desired direction when the handle was moved both forwards and backwards – thereby increasing the drive output by 100%. Tools were sold to the U.S. Air Force and commercially on QVC Sales Network.
