Excellent Legal Representation
Mr. Bush has handled several cases for me and/or family members ranging from child custody to car accident to criminal, always with excellent results. In addition to his impressive legal skills, he is always genuinely concerned with his client's situation and takes the time to honestly assess and explain the issues involved. Wayne's ability and willingness to stand up for his client's interests inspire confidence. I would encourage anyone in need of legal assistance to consult Mr. Bush. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients.

Excellent wrongful death attorney
Mr. Bush handled a wrongful death claim for my family. He was very compassionate, and kept us informed each step of the way. He fought for our family, and in the end, obtained an excellent result. I would recommend Wayne to anyone.
