R. Nelson Williams

Nelson Williams defends employers nationwide in high-stakes employment litigation, with a particular focus on discrimination lawsuits covering the spectrum of employment law, as well as wage and hour class and collective actions under the FLSA and state law. Clients rely on Nelson for litigation strategies that are practical, business-aligned, and designed to reduce exposure in complex disputes.

Nelson has secured decertification of collective actions, denial of class certification, voluntary dismissals, and other favorable outcomes, including matters resolved with no payment by the client. No matter the size or scope of the case, whether single or multi-plaintiff, Nelson recognizes that each lawsuit is different, and that litigation must be specifically tailored to each case and each client. There is no “cookie-cutter” approach to his practice.
