John Matthew Weiland

After being cited by Chesterfield County Police for both littering and reckless driving I had a great deal of frustration and anxiety worrying about what to do next. I searched the internet and found that littering a soda can is a class 1 misdemeanor in Va. and the defendant is subject to jail time i...f found guilty. Further, my concern was increased finding out that the charge of reckless driving was another misdemeanor with severe penalties. I spent a great deal of time searching for a lawyer that I felt comfortable with. I called the firm of Riley and Wells in Richmond, Va.. This turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made because Jana took the information, concerning my case, over the phone in great detail. Later, I spoke with Attorney John Weiland. I found him to be very knowledgeable about the law and he know the smallest detail of my case. John was honest, properly informing me of all the ways my case could play out in court. John advised me what to do, in order to help my receiving a good possible outcome (for my benefit) in court. I followed the legal advice John gave me. This allowed Attorney John Weiland to present my situation to the court , as only he could, and get a fantastic outcome for me. As I said, I was cited for two misdemeanors (littering and reckless driving). Attorney John Weiland got the court to do a non-process on the littering and lowered the reckless driving to an improper driving charge. I was happy to be convicted of improper driving which was only a $50 fine imposed by the court. Furthermore, the improper driving did not go to DMV and no points accessed negatively on my driving record. When you find yourself in trouble like my situation, please, do not waste time. Call Attorney John Weiland at Riley & Wells. I noticed other lawyers were not having the same degree of success as John for their clients when I was in court. I consider John and his team to be the best in this area of expertise. I highly recommend anyone needing this type of legal representation to call John. I hired the best and was very pleased with the outcome. Do not risk your future attempting to represent yourself or go with just any lawyer. Get the best, John Weiland, you will not regret it. Oh, John's fee's are also very reasonable.

I was charged with reckless driving by speed 88/65 mph. Thanks to the excellence and professionalism of John Weiland, my charges were dismissed with driving school. I was pulled over while passing through Virginia on my way to Durham, NC. At the time, I had no idea that VA traffic laws were so dr...aconian! In Virginia, reckless driving by speed 88/65 is a class 1 misdemeanor, not a traffic violation, which means I could have even faced jail time if convicted. Obviously, I wanted an exceptional lawyer who I could trust to defend me in traffic court. John Weiland went above and beyond my expectations, reducing my charge from reckless driving (a criminal offense) to simple speeding (a traffic violation), and eventually getting my case dismissed with driving school. John Weiland clearly has the experience and tact to get the best possible result. If charged with a traffic offense in Virginia, you'd better have John Weiland on your side!

Mr. Weiland represented my teenage son in a reckless driving case in Virginia. We live in Maryland and were concerned about this process so we hired Mr. Weiland to take the case. He was super and walked us through what to expect. Because this charge is considered a misdemeanor we were truly conce...rned about the outcome for our son. Today was our case and Mr. Weiland worked through the process and my son's case was dismissed. It was clear that Mr. Weiland was knowledgeable of the area and the process and was key to this successful outcome. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone facing a similar circumstance.
