Biography

Brad J. Williams specializes in felony and misdemeanor Criminal Defense. He is the first and only NCDD Board Certified DUI Defense Specialist in the State of Arkansas (and one of only 51 in the United States). Also, in 2016, Brad became the first and only lawyer in the State of Arkansas to be designated by the American Chemical Society - Chemistry and the Law Division as a "Forensic Lawyer Scientist."

Brad is from Little Rock and is a graduate of Catholic High School, Hendrix College, and the William H. Bowen School of Law. He is also a graduate of the Trial Practice Institute of the National Criminal Defense College (NCDC) at Mercer University School of Law.

Almost the entirety of Brad’s practice is devoted to Criminal and DWI Defense. Brad is a trained field sobriety test practitioner and instructor. He was the first lawyer in Arkansas to complete the Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) course and the DRE Overview Course for lawyers. Additionally, he has received years of extensive training in pharmacology, toxicology, and forensic science.

For every year since 2010, Brad has been named a Mid-South SuperLawyers Rising Star. Arkansas Life and Little Rock Soirée magazines have named Brad among the “Best Lawyers” in Little Rock.

Brad enjoys passing on his knowledge to others by teaching other attorneys at various educational events throughout the year. He is a faculty member of the National College for DUI Defense (NCDD) and a founding member of the DUI Defense Lawyers Association (DUIDLA). He is also a member of the Arkansas Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (AACDL) and National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL).
