HANNAH WESCHE

Melynda is the worst attorney this world has to offer and nobody should recommend her. She is by no means a good person and that is proven in the Hannah Wesche case. She is only good at defending horrific people. If you ask me this lady should be behind bars with the many disgusting individuals she h...as stood up for.

Horrible

If you want to win DO NOT HIRE THIS WOMAN. She's more interested in blatantly harassing witnesses and yelling over the clients needs and wants. She will lose your case by angering the judge and jury after telling them theyre too stupid to know the truth. If i could get my money back i would use it to... file a suit against her for being inept and incompetent. Im begging, dont make the same mistake I did, hire someone else. You can't even give honest reviews with your name without her coming after you and threatening to release information you gave her in confidence so ill be leaving this anonymously to save myself the grief.

Just watch her in court and you’ll see why

Melyndas screaming antics in court are what happens when you have no skills as an attorney but you’re desperately grasping at straws to try to prove you were worth hiring. Her trying to mess up witness timelines is so obvious and laughable, her condescending and very obviously gaslighting tone is so ...disgusting but also laughable. This attorney was no smarter than the woman being prosecuted whom she was “defending”. Hey melynda if you read this, screaming at a victim/witness in court won’t win you a case. Hire this clown if you want the worst possible conviction.
