Review Justin Weatherly

Justin weatherly

Posted by

I would like to say that for me Justin was awesome in the way he was able to explain what could happen, what will happen and what he could do to help my situation . I got an ovi and unfortunately it was my second one, I was extremely nervous and upset about the whole ordeal . I called around and no one seemed to want to talk or explain to me about what I was facing . I came across Justin weatherly's number I called and we talked for a while . He took the time to explain what he could do for me, explained everything clearly and for me having the peace of mind knowing the I had someone who acutely cares on my side fighting for me was awesome . I highly recommend Justin

Exceptional Lawyer

Can't say enough good things about HMW Law. I dealt with Justin Weatherly specifically for a recent driving incident. Justin and his staff were incredibly professional, prompt, and reassuring through the entire process. Justin was very knowledgeable and thorough with his research. I hope to never need their services again but HMW / Justin Weatherly would be my first and only call if need be.

Exceptional Attorney: highly recommended

Mr. Justin Weatherly is an exceptional defense attorney. He was able to significantly reduce my charges regarding a DUI case and I could not be happier with the outcome. Mr. Weatherly is the most skilled, compassionate, and highly respected attorneys that I have ever met. This was evident through his interactions with the judge, his peers, and myself. The judge that presided over my case concluded with these words, “you are very fortunate to have been represented by Mr. Weatherly.” I can sincerely say that I cannot agree more! Thank you for all of your excellent work on my case.

Attorney Weatherly has represented me several times, each with optimal results. He displayed the utmost professionalism in every interaction, and it is clear he is highly respected within the various court systems in which I witnessed him work. He went above and beyond to achieve the best possible outcomes for me. Additionally, the staff and other attorneys in the office were also very helpful. I strongly recommend Attorney Weatherly and the law firm of Henderson & Weatherly to anyone looking to hire representation in the area of criminal defense.

I'm a good person that made a bad mistake and I really felt that Mr. Weatherly could see that from my initial consultation. He worked diligently throughout my entire case to protect my rights and fight for what was best for me rather than a lame plea deal that other unnamed attorneys would be willing to settle for. I would highly recommend Mr. Weatherly to anybody seeking legal advice.

Professional, honest, and intelligent.

Posted by

Throughout my entire case, Mr. Weatherly was nothing short of professional and honest. I assumed that my case, with any lawyer, would result in an undesirable outcome. After my first conversation with him I was impressed with his honesty and his explanation of the realities of my situation. He provided no false hope or pressure to hire him. Mr. Weatherly examined and scrutinized every piece of evidence and every word of the reports regarding my case. I was extremely impressed with his thoroughness, legal knowledge and anayltical ability. Based on his analysis of the case materials, Mr. Weatherly was able to secure a plea to a lessor charge for the most serious charge and all of my other charges associated with the case dismissed. The end result was above and beyond any best case scenario I imagined. I would recommend Mr. Weatherly to anyone who is facing any type of criminal charge and I would definitely hire him again.
