Attorney Information
Overview
Holli Williams is a trial lawyer with significant experience representing clients in construction-defect disputes, commercial litigation, and first-party and third-party insurance coverage matters. She regularly advises general contractors, subcontractors, developers, property owners, and businesses navigating complex disputes involving workmanship issues, contract performance, coverage positions, and allocation of risk.
Holli began her career in litigation before transitioning into commercial real estate finance, where she closed multimillion-dollar transactions involving commercial developments, asset dispositions, and structured lending arrangements. This transactional experience deepened her understanding of underwriting, deal structure, and contractual risk distribution — insights she now leverages in litigation to evaluate claims, damages, and exposure with precision.
At Long & Robinson, LLC, Holli’s practice spans state and federal courts, arbitrations, and mediations. She is known for her disciplined case strategy, thorough preparation, and ability to translate technical construction and insurance issues into clear, actionable guidance for clients and decision-makers. Holli’s approach is grounded in practical solutions, efficient resolution, and a focus on delivering measurable value.
Her representative work includes:
- Defending and prosecuting multi-party construction-defect claims involving commercial, industrial, and multifamily projects
- Litigating insurance coverage disputes involving CGL policies, additional insured issues, trigger and allocation disputes, and exclusions affecting construction claims
- Handling commercial contract disputes and business tort claims
- Advising clients on contract drafting, risk mitigation, and claims positioning
Beyond her practice, Holli is a committed mother and a strategic thinker who brings focus, organization, and resilience to every endeavor.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
