Avoid at all costs

I am from Illinois and went to College at Central. In 2017 I got a ticket in Pella. I hired Wes to make sure my license would not get suspended and insurance would not go up. I wanted to plea not guilty. He advised if we moved court date past my 21st birthday it would not be suspended in Illinois. We... moved the court date back and I plead guilty. A few months later I get notice my license is suspended for 60 days because I got tickets within 24 months of each other. His excuse was "I saved you from one suspension instead of 2." and suggested that I should have known about the 2nd potential suspension. (If I knew this, I would have no need to hire him) Four years late I am still having to pay higher insurance rates because of this. If you are from out of state, do not use Wesley.

Having an attorney that makes a horrible situation the best possible situation it can be

Wes handled my divorce very efficiently, and with great integrity. He kept me updated, telling me what I needed to know when I needed to know information. He helped me be completely prepared for hearings which gave me so much peace and ease under very horrible circumstances. He was kind, caring and o...ffered options, outcomes and guidance all along the way. The costs, expectations, and most likely outcomes were accurate - no surprises. Other lawyers I consulted with came across aggressive and offered outcomes far exceeding what was fair and likely possible. He was able to represent me in a way that achieved all our goals and thus meeting (and even exceeding) my needs and expectations. He and his staff were very attentive - always returning my calls, emails and concerns with quick and thorough attention. I had complete confidence that I was being represented in the best ways possible.
