Superior Attorney! Exception service - Gets the job DONE RIGHT!

Mr Woehlece is SHARP, he undstands your situation and he actually CARES about you. I was in the middle of a 'court system crisis' (breakdown) - Byron came HIGHLY recommended from a friend. Bryon understands the Kansas City legal system and knows many piers working within the legal system. He is ex...tremely knowledgeable, and will work to resolve your problem with YOUR outcome in mind. I have used other attorney's in KC, and found they failed. If you need a great guy, a strong attorney, and the best attorney, who has your back.... Byron should be your first call.

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.
