Posted by Charlton | February 08, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

He is the best lawyer I hired. I have fired my last 2 for not being prepared.

Very detailed and a true professional. He had my back the whole way. He keeps you at ease during the stress of a custody case. I recommend him for ANY father, ESPECIALLY an African American father.

You get less than what you pay for.

Filed for divorce I wanted my maiden name back. He said I would look petty. WHAT. I Still don't have my maiden name back. None of the supports child or spousal are being addressed I would get calls from the court before my own lawyer. I fired him. I wish I could get money back. Just horrible. Com...plete waste.

So-So

Dwight is great if you're on a tight budget. But do not expect him to try his hardest. To my knowledge, the amount of money you give him will ABSOLUTELY effect how hard he tries. I learned this first hand after hiring him. I ended up hiring a different lawyer after Dwight failed to show up to my revo...cation hearing. The other lawyer costed more money than dwight, but he produced RESULTS. I was off probation in two different counties, within 2 months. On the other hand, if i was to stay with dwight, i would have been on probation for at least another year. It seems like dwight had other important cases he prioritized and my case was on the back burner for him. Like i said, the money was great, but whenever you see a nice deal like that theres almost always a catch.

Very professional !

Well let's say our experience was a run for its money we had a crazy case but Dwight went out of his way to make sure we was taken care of and still does .. I would highly recommend him for anything you would need ... Great attorney !!

Reduced DUI

Dwight went above and beyond to help me get my DUI reduced. Compared to most lawyers in the area he was reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend Dwight to family and friends.
