Highly Recommended

Mr. Wells created a plan to handle my difficult case, provided excellent advice, guided me through each step, and it worked. Before my hearing, he got up at 4 a.m., analyzed the latest updates to my case, read several pages of my last-minute notes, and memorized them all. Skillful, savvy, ethical,... thoroughly prepared, committed to his clients, and gets favorable results. Friendly and well-liked by his peers and persons within the legal system, and enjoys his job. This is the guy I want on my side anytime I step into a courthouse. Huge asset. Very highly recommended.

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.
