Outstanding legal representation

Whitney was highly professional, responsive, and knowledgeable making a stressful legal situation much easier to handle. I would recommend her to anyone needing top-tier representation

Client

Whitney is an excellent attorney. She was in constant communication with me about my case. She is thorough and knowledgeable.

Posted by anonymous | September 09, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

The best.

Whitney has represented me in a variety of cases including traffic tickets, guardianship, and domestic relations. Each time she has provided clear and concise advice regarding my legal issues. She is able to explain the law in a way that is understandable to a non- attorney. She gave me the confidenc...e to decide how I want to move forward so I could make the right choice for my situation. If you find yourself in a situation that requires representation and are nervous about the proceedings, Whitney will guide you through the process with as little stress as possible.

SO SO GREAT!!

Whitney helped us with custody issues for my son. She was honest and compassionate. She listened to my concerns and kept in touch with me every step of the way. Before Whitney I had gone through two other attorneys and they all disappointed in some way and didn't seem to care. Whitney made me feel li...ke I was her only client and let me vent to her on more than one occasion! She also recommended a great counselor for my son to see as well. She knows what she is doing and will take care of you.

Posted by Cindy | December 13, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

The BEST, and I truly mean it!

I had a very ugly divorce. I had initially hired a different lawyer recommended by a friend, which ended up with some miscommunication and an unpleasant outcome. I was desperate to find somebody to represent me and Whitney took my case under her wing. Even after the divorce, I struggle with my ex and... she was there for me for advice. She gives you 100% of your time when you are with her, she makes sure you understand the process, and she doesn't sugar coat. I love that she is a shark and is really passionate about what she does. Her dedication to her client show and I wish I would have found her before all of this happened! If you are looking for somebody to hire, I would HIGHLY recommend Whitney! Not only is she AMAZING at what she does, she is super personable and very easy to talk and consult with, without being intimidated.
