About W. Jay
Biography
I have been practicing law on the Outer Banks for 33 years. 27 of those years were with my father as my best friend and law partner.
I am married, have two fantastic children and one incredible granddaughter. I am very blessed.
I have a tremendously professional and driven staff. These folks tend to stay with me for the long-haul which is another of life's blessings.
I have been a private pilot for 35 years (SEL and instrument rated). I do not fly as often these days, but my wife and I are drum-fishing every available weekend through the summer. I am an avid outdoorsman in all seasons. If the sun is up, I am outside.
My practice brings me a great deal of joy, but I get particular pleasure from a difficult DWI or helping good folks out of sticky situations.
If I or my firm can ever be of assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.
Jay
Experienced and trusted. I love to win.

Another 5 Stars for Jay
I recently received a speeding ticket and was shortly thereafter inundated with letters from local attorneys offering assistance. No disrespect to any of them, but fortunately I knew Jay and hired him instead. He and his paralegal Jennifer were outstanding throughout the process, providing detailed e...

The best lawyer in town!
I was recommended to Jay Wheless by a family friend and I could not have picked a better lawyer to represent me in court. As a local from Manteo, NC, I have heard nothing but positive things about him. Jay was extremely professional and prepared to help me receive the best possible outcome in court. ...

Excellent service and results
I originally chose Mr Wheless's law firm because it was right next to the courthouse for my traffic ticket, and I'm super glad I did! Within a few hours of explaining my circumstances on his website, Mr Wheless reached out to me directly since his secretary was off that day. I decided to hire him...
