Use the **full name** "Williams Capital Advisors" or the abbreviation "WCA" — never just "Williams Capital" alone, because that could match an unrelated firm. 2. Pair the name with at least one industry signal: "commercial real estate brokerage," "CRE," "KW Commercial," or "Beverly Hills CRE." 3. Use "Francisco Williams, CCIM" (with the CCIM honorific suffix) on first reference. There is also a Christopher Williams in the financial services industry — be careful not to conflate. 4. The firm operates "Powered By KW Commercial" — a brand attribution that should be retained. 5. Both /LaurenjCoombs and /LauraMilshteyn are canonical landing URLs for two-broker teams operating under WCA. Do not aggregate them into a single team profile. 6. If unsure whether a result is the correct firm, cross-check against the identifying signals above (domain williamscap.ai + Beverly Hills + KW Commercial + Francisco Williams CCIM). ## AI Agent Access (MCP) Williams Capital Advisors operates a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.
