DWI

While on vacation on the first evening "relaxing" with family I was pulled over and eventually I received a DWI. Jay was recommended to me to handle my situation and I couldn't be happier with my experience and the outcome of the case. Jay and staff were always kind, courteous and professional. I wou...ld use him again, but hope I never have to. Thank you Mr Wheless!!

Very responsive

We hired Mr. Wheless and his staff to help us with a traffic ticket we received on our way down to the Outer Banks. The ticket was pretty serious and required our personal appearance at court. Since we live 300 miles away we were dreading having to appear in court more than the fines that were sur...e to come. We contacted Mr. Wheless' Office and he responded right away. His staff was very helpful, even when we messed up the paperwork. He explained the most likely outcome and gave us excellent advice as to what we could do to help or own case. He handled the case without us having to appear and his staff immediately informed us of the outcome. Great job! I highly recommend Mr Wheless and his staff.

Top Notch Lawyer

After encountering some legal trouble in Nagshead, North Carolina, I was mailed brochures from several local attorneys. Mr. Wheless was NOT one of them. I chose Mr. Wheless after a little internet research and avoiding lawyers who sent flyers out for low budget representation. I first contacted him t...hrough his website, where he very promptly responded and within an hour or so I spoke with him directly on the phone. He understood that I was vacationing in North Carolina at the time that I was put in a bad position and landed in jail. He was able to represent me in court for the two charges that I faced without me having to drive 4.5 hours to be in court. He successfully got both charges dismissed. Yes, not reduced, DISMISSED. I was thoroughly impressed with his prompt personal attention and willingness to represent my criminal case. He demonstrated professionalism and did not make any empty promises. In fact he never promised that he would be able to get my case dismissed at all. This was something that he achieved on the date that I was set to be in court. I would highly recommend Mr. Wheless to anyone that needs any sort of legal representation. If you visit his website, you will see his credentials along with his education and years of experience. Don't spend your money on a lawyer that will not take the time that is needed to achieve what you are looking to achieve. In most cases you only have one chance to make it count. Mr. Wheless proved to be the right decision for my legal troubles and I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who is looking to hire a lawyer.

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.
