Outstanding!

My only regret was not using Keith first. I had gone with another firm that had been recommended to me by a few different friends. After watching my original attorney sit silently as I was removed from my house, lost my kids, and had to pay the mortgage and ALL the bills, I knew I needed a new atto...rney. Enter Keith Wessel. Not only was he able to reverse the damage my original attorney had done, he was able to cut through the games and drama my ex wife's attorney had been using. He worked well with the Social Worker, the Court Commissioner, and Judge. He has the knowledge and experience to navigate any situation and is very personable and easy to work with through the difficult circumstance that is divorce. I trust him completely. Excellent communication and response to any questions I had. He is worth his rate and it was money well spent. I would not hesitate to recommend Keith to anyone. My experience with Keith Wessel can be described only as outstanding!

Top Notch Legal Representation

Attorney Wessel represented me in a divorce. Throughout the entire case, Attorney Wessel aggressively pursued a settlement for me that was fair. His office staff are professional, he is very knowledgeable, and has a great work ethic. Questions you may have are responded to in a timely manner, he is... considerate of costs, and he is direct and honest. I highly recommend his services if you are in need of legal representation.

Highly Professional

Keith Wessel is a very honest, personable, and knowledgeable attorney. He handled my family court matter with the utmost attention to detail and kept the best interests of my child a forefront throughout the process. I was a "newbie" in regards to family court proceedings and Keith was there to help ...me understand everything along the way, and was quick to answer any questions I might of had. I would highly recommend him and would definitely hire him again if the need arose.
