Best lawyer in Knoxville

Best lawyer in Knoxville. This man helped me change my life around. Thank you Mike for everything and God bless you.

He will see you get justice swiftly. Very swiftly

I faced the most severe charges in my lifetime over a sticker. Felony, Oh god. I thought I would get a small sentence. Mike walks in as court is about to begin and asks if he may approach. 60 seconds later I am paying a few dollars in court costs and on my way home 20 minutes after court had began. M...ike Whalen knew I had no record and this was a sham charge and he didn't even wait for me to ve called to say so. If you ever find yourself accused of a crime you did not commit or are just seeking the best possible outcome to your trial. He will do the best anyone can ask.

Caring, Trustworthy and Responsible lawyer

Mike Whalen is by far one of the most impeccable human beings I have ever met. He represented myself and my dad on an Order of Protection filed by my former brother-in-law. Mr. Whalen was fighting an uphill battle from the beginning. This order was heard in Bill Swann's court, the 4th Circuit in K...nox County, TN and Judge Swann has a reputation for being overly reactive, oblivious to the facts, and ruling with knee jerk reactions instead of logic. Mr. Whalen went to bat for both me and my father over and again. I would trust this man in any court room, any day.
