Understanding and professional

Wesley was very professional, understanding and fair. He explained to me (the client) all the steps involving getting divorced. He provided updates throughout the entire process eliminating stress of guessing and wondering.

Furthermore, he works very well with his clients, who are his number one priority, & he fights for the best result all of the time.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
