Episode 69 - Next Lawyer Up with Ron Sykstus featuring Stephen Williams

Foxtrot Family Law is synonymous with attorney Stephen Williams.  That is because he is the founder and principal of the firm.  His offices are located in Guntersville and Huntsville, Alabama.   As I learned after the podcast, the naming of his law firm was a very bright idea.  Now, knowing Stephen’s background, it makes a lot of sense to me.  Unfortunately, I forgot to ask Stephen the reason that he named his law firm Foxtrot on the podcast!  Suffice it to say, there is a business reason behind it insofar as creating an entity, brand and team that he leads that zealously represents their clients, rather than just one named lawyer.  It now makes sense that Stephen would think of that business aspect of a law practice since, in addition to his law degree from the University of Alabama School of Law, Stephen also took a detour to also get his MBA from Alabama’s Culverhouse College of Business-Manderson Graduate School as well.  What is remarkable to me is that Stephen got these degrees after taking his musical career as far as he cared to with the culmination of a guitar performance degree from Birmingham Southern College.  Stephen is a bright, thoughtful and well-respected lawyer  who was just named as a 2019 Mid-South Super Lawyer rising star.  It has been quite awhile since we talked and I enjoyed catching up with him on this episode.
