Tara came into our lives at just the right moment and from my first encounter with her I knew she was the one I wanted handling my son’s case. My son had a serious charge that had been handled by another attorney. While on probation for the initial charge, my son had a false charge made against h...im followed by an assault charge a few months later, to which he was totally justified, in my opinion. These new charges now had the potential of harming my son’s professional license, and to make matters worse, I was starting to lose faith in his retained attorney. This attorney started to question my son’s integrity, which in turn, made me question his. As faith would have it, his original attorney couldn’t appear in court for my son’s assault charge arraignment. Instead of offering to find me someone, I had to plead with him to get someone to appear on his behalf. Well, the stress of that morning was well worth it, this is the day Tara Whelan entered our lives. Tara immediately displayed genuine concern and calmed my fears. She fully explained the best and worse case scenarios in a professional and compassionate manner. Watching Tara enter the courtroom and gain immediate respect from all court staff was fascinating and extremely comforting. After court, Tara did not brush us off. She gave us all the time we needed to ask questions and just shoot the breeze right there on the streets of NYC. My son left the courtroom that day a different person. For the first time in over a year, he felt that he could take a step back and breathe. It only took moments after saying our goodbye’s to Tara that my son made the decision to switch attorneys. He realized he needed someone like Tara on his side, not only for her professional expertise, but her natural ability in keeping her clients balanced throughout a difficult situation. For the first time, no matter the outcome of the case, we were accepting of it. Tara makes you feel as though you are a family member she is representing, instead of just being a client. Tara’s keen eye for detail revealed information, in my son’s favor, that had been conveyed to us incorrectly by his previous attorney and made a difference in his case going forward. In the end, we couldn’t have been happier with the reduced charge, and most importantly, my son’s professional license was not affected. Tara Whelan, you are one amazing woman, and an extremely gifted attorney. I am forever grateful to you. Thank you!
