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.

Helped with Traffic Ticket - Fantastic Experience
Was given a ticket for some strange circumstances on the way back from the Outer Banks. Contacted Wheless & Wheless and hired them. From the get go, it felt like they had my back. They communicated clearly, asked great questions, and made me feel covered. Particularly, because I'm out of state, it's ...

Speeding Charge reduced to non moving
Very very friendly and helpful attorney. Answered every question and concern I had within hours! Very very communicated. Was able to make a deal and get my out of state speeding ticket reduced to improper equipment. Would recommend him for any traffic violation in the outer banks N.C.!

DUI
I contacted Mr Wheless and his legal team 4 years after my DUI it took a little time to get things rolling because I was out of state and it was an older case. Once Mr Wheless gathered all his information on the case it couldn’t have gone any better he contacted me after every meeting he had concern...

Only the best
Jay Wheless was willing to take on my difficult DUI case. He was thorough, well spoken in court, willing to fight and very knowledgeable. I ended up much better off after hiring him. HIGHLY recommended.

So Glad I Hired Him!
I hired Jay after emailing with him about my case. He was quick to respond to my inquires and was transparent from the start what he could do for me and what I would need to do to get my charges reduced. He was able to get my speeding violation down to a non moving violation which will not be seen ...
