When The "IMPOSSIBLE" Becomes "POSSIBLE"!

I Found Myself In That Proverbial, "It's Gonna Take A MIRACLE For This To Get Better", Situation... Well He (Cyril Westcott- Omwirhiren JD) Brought The Miracle. I Was Charged With An Assault Against A Family Member That Gave The State The "Whip" To Lash Me For 8 Years As A Plea Bargain. I Was Feebl...e With Worry And Stress And Nightmares Of All The Things I Would Lose In The Process If I Lost My Case At Trial. My Freedom. My Career. My Ability To Plan For The Future. Then The Other Incidentals Like My Dog. My Car. My Personal Belongings..... Things Took On A Perspective That No Longer Gave Me The Kind Of Hope And Optimism I Had Been Used To. The Kind Of Hope And Optimism That I Lived And Laughed And Felt Obligated To Share And Radiate With Just About EVERYONE I Came In Contact With Because It Was Cool And Real And Gave A Sense Of Me Contributing Some Positivity To Our World And Our Times. I Felt That All I Had Worked So Hard For..All I Had Sacrificed For And Envisioned AS The Rewards For Living Like A Person Who Not Only Was A Productive Member Of Society, I Was A Person Who ENCOURAGED Others To Keep Their Heads Up! No Matter How Bleak And Troublesome The Road Ahead Appeared It Could NOT ROB US Of Our Journey To Success. And Then Just Like That. I Was On The Ground. The Rug Had Been Viciously Pulled From Under My Feet. The Attorneys I Began To Speak to Asked For Money Up Front (Which of course is to be expected) But I Never Really Felt As If They Heard A Single Word I Said About My Case. Then I Got In Contact With Mr. Westcott. Immediately I Felt A Difference In His Approach. IN The Way He Asked Me Questions AND Answered Mine. Pretty Soon I Was Able To See My Situation With Just That Much More Confidence. Because Mr. Westcott Was And IS DETERMINED To DILIGENTLY FIGHT FOR His Clients! WHOEVER They Are! Well That's Just What He Did! And This Evening I Am In The Comfort Of The Home I Share With Family After Getting Everything Squared Away Yesterday. Cyril Westcott Knows The Law. He Knows His Way around The Courtroom Like A Master Chess Player Knows The Chess Board. He Is Known AND Respected IN The Courtroom And By His Colleagues And Associates As Well. He Negotiated My Freedom And Peace Of Mind Without Putting Me In The Poorhouse. Cyril Westcott Is The "Michael Jordan" Of Defense Lawyers. Get Him On Your Team If You Want to Win! Reece Brown

Highly Recommended

Mr. Westcott served as my divorce attorney. He is an excellent lawyer and an even better human being! Mr. Westcott kept in communication with me to help me prepare what I needed. He was always clear with his instructions and always patient with me. He traveled from Houston to Dallas to represent ...me. At court, he explained to me exactly what would happen so there were no surprises. He brought his wife along to provide me with emotional support and she made what could have been a painful experience into a pleasant occasion. I recommend Mr. Westcott to anyone in need of legal services, but especially to those who are looking for stellar customer service along with the legal assistance. Certainly, I will use him again if I need a lawyer!

  • 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.
