Justin weatherly

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

Highly recommended

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 ou...tcomes 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.
