About Me

MEET THE FOUNDER&CEO

Felicia M. Williams, Esq.

I practiced family law for 16 years. Built my first firm from scratch. Took on tough cases. Taught continuing legal education to lawyers across Florida. Collected the accolades: Top 100 Lawyer, Super Lawyers Rising Star, Client's Choice, and dozens of five-star reviews.

I’m also pursuing a lifelong dream of becoming a pilot. But dreams don’t replace purpose. And mine has always been about people, especially the ones the legal system tends to forget.

Most people who need legal help can’t afford to waste years and tens of thousands of dollars fighting in court. They don’t need more paperwork, more stress, or more confusion. They need a real path forward. They need someone who gets it and can help them move on.

The Family Law and Mediation Firm, P.A. is for them. For you. The stuck. The overwhelmed. The people who want peace without spending excessive money, time, or emotional energy to get it. Whether you need paperwork done, help working through issues with your ex, or a seasoned attorney who can hold their own in court, this firm gives you real options.

Let me be clear. I’m not afraid of court. I’m not just a mediator. I’m a trial lawyer. I know how to cross-examine. I know how to shut down nonsense and expose the truth. I know how to fight and win.As Sun Tzu said, "The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting." I believe that. But I also stand by George Washington's words: "To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." You deserve both strength and strategy, and I bring both.

Here’s the truth no one tells you:

Going to court doesn’t always make sense.

It’s expensive. It’s slow. And it often drags families through years of conflict, only to land in front of a judge with thousands of cases and only minutes to hear yours.

Unfortunately, some people do need to go to court. Narcissists, abusers, and people who refuse to cooperate unless forced. In those cases, you must fight, and you must never flinch. But most families just need someone to help them work through the hard stuff and move on.

Before I became a lawyer, I was a teacher. I saw how many of my students showed up to school already carrying the weight of what happened at home. That’s what pulled me into family law. Because when families break, kids feel it first and feel it longest.

This isn’t just another law firm. This is a place for people who want to move forward with as little collateral damage as possible. For people who want to do right by their kids. For people who will go to war, but only if they must.

You may not be able to keep your family together. But you can keep it healthy. And you can thrive, not just survive.
