Excellent mediator

I hired Wesley for court-ordered mediation in an extremely high-conflict case. Wesley was very approachable and reassuring; he listened patiently and provided objective, neutral legal information. He was able to identify the personality issues at play and didn't waste time trying force resolution whe...re it was clearly unachievable just to run up the bill. I would hire him again.

Great Mediator

I did two family law mediations with Wesley. He listened well and helped us reach a resolution that was good for everyone. It was a stressful situation but Wesley helped make the experience much better. I recommend him to anyone in the Denver area that needs mediation.

Thank you Wesley!

I had initially set up a consultation with Wesley for bankruptcy. He was very helpful and made me feel comfortable during the consultation. He wasn't pushy and left it up to me whether or not I choose him or continue to search for other lawyers. I decided to go with Wesley and am so so grateful I did.... I had several issues with my bankruptcy. He was upfront, transparent and told me the best case as well as the worst case regarding my case. The process was so easy and Wesley/his team helped me through the entire process. I remember showing up to my court hearing and another person was ahead of me and his lawyer was late (embarrassing). Wesley was always on time and punctual. I believe he is the reason I got the best result on my case. Literally so so so thankful for your help if you read this Wesley and feel so relieved.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
