Travis Christopher Sayre's Lawyer Endorsements
"Travis Sayre is an excellent criminal defense lawyer. He's one of the most hardworking, smart, and knowledgeable criminal lawyers in WV and the mid-Atlantic region. He cares. He will fight for clients. And he knows how to win. He is also a "lawyer's lawyer." I had a bank robbery case with incriminating DNA evidence and Travis helped me get up to speed on the science and forensic aspects of the case because he is constantly attending advanced training seminars around the country and learning cutting-edge techniques. Based on his training and insight, I prepared very effective cross examinations of five witnesses involved in the collection and analysis of the DNA evidence, which was critical to our defense. Whenever I can't find an answer to a question in a criminal case I call Travis Sayre first. I would recommend Travis to anyone in WV or around the country who needs a lawyer handle a difficult case for a defendant charged or along with any lawyer as co-counsel."

Travis’s comment:
“My suspension in 2019 was a pivotal setback that forced me to confront my shortcomings and reassess my identity as an attorney. During this time, unexpected support from clients taught me the value of humility, empathy, and connection. Ultimately, this experience transformed me into a more resilient attorney, dedicated to serving my clients with renewed purpose and integrity.”
