The man to get things done

Not only did Mr Weart work my case hard and deliver on everything he promised, but he conducted himself in a very professional and kind way you don't often find in these times. My case was cleared and I was able to move on with my life. After everything was resolved he even helped me retrieve my pr...operty from the police department with no additional charges. I highly recommend his services.

I highly recommend James weart. He saved my freedom, and my family.

James weart was hired a year or so ago. When we hired him my the judge was about to sentence me and we hired him last minute. He had little time to do anything but yet for minimum 4-25 years or to life reduced to just 15yrs papers. He was on top of my case did as he said he would and more. When I was... down and unsure of the outcome he reassured me things would be fine and they where. Even though I have been sentenced he still helps me with my problems through probation. My family and I greatly appreciate his hard work he has provided for us, I know he would do the same for anyone else.

Excellent criminal lawyer

I went to James Weart for a DUI charge. He came highly recommended by people I know. James told me what I needed to hear about my case as opposed to what I wanted to hear. He is very honest. As a result, the DUI charge got thrown out due to James challenging the State Attorney on the charge with hi...s legal knowledge converting it to a powerful force in the courtroom. The State Attorney backed off because James is a bulldog in the courtroom. I seriously believe that if I had a lawyer with a weak reputation, the State would have taken it to trial to try and convict me. James kept that from happening because they knew therr was a good chance that they were going to lose if it went to trial with James as my lawyer. He cares about his clients and has that drive to win. He is not the typical attorney that tells you he will fight for you and takes your money and then lays down on you and rolls over. James Weart is a stand up man. He has honor, dignity and respect. He is a true Spartan Lawyer. He will fight for you to win. He likes to win. That is a beautiful thing for a criminal lawyer to have as a primary drive force. His fees were fair and reasonable as well . Also, his staff is very good. Everytime I called I was able to talk with his assistant, Carlos, who is a great guy and very personable. All in all, James Weart is the best.. He is also on my Facebook. That's how much I recommend him. Cord....

Game changer

I will use a sports analogy to portray what James C Weart has done for me as a client. He is a game changer. I was wrongfully arrested by the Sanford Police Department, and James C Weart fought hard for me. He was able to get all the charges dropped. I was not alone in this fight, and I don't know... where I would be right now if I did not have James on my side. I suggest anyone in a similar situation seek the aid of James because he will have your back to the bitter end.

Highly Recommended

Was arrested for DUI (BAL above 2.0) involving minor fender bender. Was facing serious consequences (30 days jail, upward $4,000 fines, vehicle impoundment, ignition device and five years license suspension) due to having a DUI five years ago. Upon contact James Weart and his team, I received them as... very professional and courteous. I felt at ease and confident leaving my case in their hands. James worked diligently on my case and was able to get field sobriety, BAL and police report suppressed from court. James was able to have charges amended from DUI to one count of leave scene without giving info. End result of paying only a fraction of original fines and driver improvement classes. I was extremely pleased with the outcome and would recommend him to anyone!!!
