While on leave in 1958, Williams earned an LLM from the University of California, Berkeley. He accepted a position as associate professor of Law at the University of Saskatchewan in 1961, was promoted to professor in 1964, and in 1969 was named assistant dean of the College of Law. Williams was the author of a number of publications, notably in the fields of Public and Private International Law and Legal History.
