Willie was first licensed to practice law in California in 2011. He has since added admissions in Missouri, New York, New Jersey, and Iowa, Kansas and North Dakota.

Why these states? Family, mostly.

He was born and raised all over Missouri, went to high school and college in California, and returned to the Golden State to practice law in 2011 after attending the prestigious Washington and Lee University, School of Law in Lexington, Virginia. 

However, in 2017, he chased a girl to the east coast and ended up a proud papa. Since re-establishing his practice on the East Coast, he has focused exclusively on finances and retirement – prenuptial agreements, estate planning, and the division of retirement accounts through qualified domestic relations orders (QDROs).
