About William Chalfant Cunningham
William Chalfant Cunningham III is an attorney licensed to practice in both Florida and Michigan. He completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Florida, earning a B.A. in Political Science in 2005. He went on to earn his J.D. from Shepard Broad Law Center at Nova Southeastern University, concluding his legal studies in 2008.
Cunningham began his legal career shortly after law school. He worked in a variety of roles that exposed him to courtroom practice and client counseling. Over time he moved into positions that required more responsibility on case strategy and client contact. His trajectory from junior roles to his current position reflects steady advancement through hands-on legal work.
He later joined K/S Lawyers at Law as an associate lawyer. In that role he handles matters that arise in the two states where he is licensed. Colleagues describe him as methodical in his preparation and direct in his courtroom presentation. He has experience drafting pleadings, participating in depositions, and preparing briefs for trial and administrative proceedings.
Cunningham’s dual-state license shapes how he approaches cases. Handling matters in Florida and Michigan requires attention to different procedural rules and local practice customs. He spends time ensuring filings comply with each jurisdiction’s requirements. That practical attention to detail defines much of his everyday work.
Outside of filings and hearings, Cunningham spends time advising clients on procedural choices and likely next steps. He aims to give clients clear options and realistic timelines. He also collaborates with other lawyers when matters call for specialized expertise or when a case spans both states.
Peers note that Cunningham balances a courtroom presence with case management tasks that keep matters moving. He manages discovery schedules, coordinates witnesses, and monitors deadlines. The role requires juggling litigation and client communications, and that combination is a frequent part of his daily routine.
He maintains professional connections in both Florida and Michigan and stays current on changes to court rules and state practice standards. He is active in the firm’s day-to-day caseload and contributes to team strategy sessions when complex issues arise. He is an associate at K/S Lawyers at Law, where he represents clients in matters arising in Florida and Michigan.
