Eldercare

Advised me on what I needed to do for Eldercare renewal. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Previously used her services and definetly would use her again.

Excellent Attorney

I would hire her before any other attorney. Have worked with her on several issues in the past and she has always looked out for our interests. Has called if she anticipated any concerns and we were very fortunate to have her on wills and estate planning.

A Lawyer that Cares

Attorney Wainey is the BEST Attorney in the Fort Myers / Cape Coral area. I have recommended many of my friends to her. She takes care of her clients. Mrs. Wainey, was the ONLY attorney that I trusted when my Grandmother needed legal advice. I would not go anywhere else !

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.
