Posted by Irene | February 22, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense
Wade is an excellent lawyer! Caring and capable. Looks out for client's best interests. Communicates regularly.
I heartily recommend Wade. My son couldn't have asked for better representation. For those in legal trouble and suffering from a disability, I think you will find Wade to be both compassionate and capable. My son has a mental illness and Wade was able to arrange for my son to get the psychiatric help...

Simply Awesome!!
Wade has always been there every step of the way. From a DWI, to me forgetting about a traffic ticket. Honest, not money hungry, he has helped me for the past 8 years! There is nothing too big or small for Wade. It was very cool to see Wade featured on CBS's 48 hours "Redemption Song".
