Former client

Troy assisted me with a matter when I had no where to turn. His knowledge of law, his compassion for his clients and his timely responses where exceptional. I would recommend him to anyone needing an attorney.

Prompt and Professional Representation

I have used Mr. Wisehart on numerous occasions, as have members of my family. He has always done a very satisfactory job for us, and always kept us up to date on our actions. He is an excellent attorney.

Worth Every Penny!

I hired Mr. Wisehart as a defense attorney for felony criminal charges and he was a lifesaver! He is an experienced criminal attorney who is highly regarded and respected in the communities where he practices. Mr. Wisehart was understanding of my circumstances and handled my case with distinguished... professionalism. The disposition of my case resulted in two low grade felony charges being reduced to misdemeanors and no jail time was ever served. Troy is very down to earth, easy to work with, and not to mention easy on the eyes! I highly recommend Troy for all of your criminal defense attorney needs.

"I contacted Troy for some clients who had a legal issue in his jurisdiction. He was prompt to return my call, polite, well spoken, and professional. Even though I just called as a courtesy he took the time to explain the local procedures and I felt very comfortable sending my clients to him. Should you ever need a capable criminal defense advocate in his jurisdiction definitely get ahold of Troy first, he's the real deal!"

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.
