World Class Legal Representation

Mr. Weart lives up to his reputation as a top-notch defense attorney. He is respected and well-liked by his peers and colleagues, and for good reason. Mr. Weart put more time, effort, and careful thought into my defense than any of the attorneys who had worked on my case previously. His efforts pai...d off and I was blessed with the best possible outcome for my case. I appreciate Mr. Weart and am very grateful for his services.

OUTSTANDING LAWYER

Mr. Weart is an outstanding lawyer. So thankful, I was referred to Mr. Weart by my bail bondsman. From day one, he took on my DUI case. Explained the pros and cons of the situation and told me it was going to be hard, but I could do it. Even with the load of cases he had, I never once felt neglected.... If I didn't receive a call from him, I'd received a call from his wonderful wife. Needless to say, you get what you pay for, my DUI was reduced to reckless driving without alcohol. I saved $5,000 in fees, Mr. Weart you are the best.

They don't make them like James anymore.

There are not enough superlative words in the English language to express what James Weart means to me and my family. James was able to get an outrageous sentence of 6 years DOC and 24 years probation reduced to five years probation with early termination in the future for my family member. He work...ed our case and for once we found an outstanding attorney who was kind to his client, who understood the issues and really devoted himself to going over the case with a fine tooth comb. He is a brilliant man and an even better human being. Thank you Mr. Weart, we are forever in your debt.

Excellent Attorney

I met Mr. Weart in 2012, where I hired him to represent my brother in a possession/trafficking charge. He was able to work with my brother and got him a very minimal sentence of 6 months and probation. After that, my brother violated probation and Mr. Weart went to work for him again and was able to ...get him sent to a residential rehabilitation program instead of prison time. Fast forward a few years, and there was another violation and Mr. Weart was able to help my brother get into an outpatient program instead of time in prison. Mr. Weart is extremely charismatic and truly cares about his clients and their well being. There was yet another incident, Another violation, and Mr. Weart got it dismissed. I am very satisfied with his services and would recommend him in a heartbeat. He always kept us informed of what was going on and showed real interest in helping my family go through all the steps and ultimately, help my brother to a better life.

DOWN TO EARTH/ GREAT HELP!

I received a DUI in October of 2015, I fell through the cracks in the courts for 6+ months. When I was finally put on docket court gave me a week and a half before my first appearance. I called Mr. Weart told him and he got right to work! Not only did he show up to multiple court appearances with me,... but he also worked with me financially! He is a very friendly, professional lawyer know knows his stuff! He got my DUI down to a RECKLESS and I even messed up and violated my probation, and they wanted to give me jail time... Well not only did I stay out of jail but 2 months later (after completing what was court ordered) he got me completely off of probation!! So I highly recommend Mr. Weart, he did a great job and the way he worked with me financially made me able to obtain a lawyer, otherwise I would've went in with a Public Defender.. no good there. So thank you so much Mr. Weart!! If your in the market get a free consultation you wont be disappointed!
