Family Law Results

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to Wells LawFirm and all the staff for their exceptional support during a very difficult time in my life. Mr. Wells, in particular, stood out with his vast knowledge and expertise. He guided me through the entire court process during my divo...rce and custody proceedings, ensuring that I understood every step along the way. Each meeting with him reassured me of his genuine care and dedication to my case. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate the efforts of each and every staff member involved. Their professionalism, empathy, and commitment were evident throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Wells LawFirm to anyone who unfortunately finds themselves in a similar situation. Their support made a significant difference, and for that, I am truly grateful.

This firm is outstanding

I hired David Wells to represent me in my divorce after fourteen years of marriage. He was recommended to me by my co-worker that had complicated custody case. I am beyond pleased with my experience. My case involved finances and custody of my children, and I was unequipped to represent myself. It w...as also an extremely sensitive and emotional time in my life and David handled this case from beginning to end with what I would consider perfection in every aspect. He is extremely empathetic. He gave me great advice, stayed on top of things, explained everything very clearly to me, and even dealt with me well when I got emotional. He prioritized my well-being and that of my children during such a critical time. He knew my finances were limited and he always found a way to curtail my expenses and use my resources wisely. When I had questions, I always dealt directly with him and not assistants or other people from his office. He was firm and kept the opposing council from dragging their feet. With thoughtful and detailed advice and feedback from David and his team, my divorce settlement was beyond what I'd anticipated. If you want a hard-working, knowledgeable, empathetic, and supportive lawyer then look no further. I will always have a deep appreciation for David and the rest of the Wells firm team for everything they did to help resolve my case

Outstanding attorney and team

I cannot recommend David Wells and his team enough. From the time I walked in the door, the staff made me feel at ease. David has a very direct approach which I appreciate. At no time did I question the process. He made one of the most difficult times in my life a little more bearable. His guidance t...hrough my divorce process was coupled with words of encouragement and positive affirmations. David is a gentle soul with a bulldog approach in your defense. His staff are just as capable and are amazing at handling any situation. I thank you all for your services. I highly recommend the Wells Law Firm should you find yourself in need of the best attorney and team in the Myrtle Beach area.

Honest, Caring, and Very Sage Advice!

So glad we hired David Wells to handle a divorce in the family. Exactly what we needed to keep the children's best interest cared for. His mentoring throughout a difficult process made all the difference to all parties involved resulting in the best outcome for the family.

Very thorough

Switched from an unreliable attorney to David halfway through divorce with child custody. You only get one shot at that. I’m glad I switched to Mr Wells.
