Wendell will tell you the real story

I didn't know how good Wendell was until I hired other lawyers. Wendell truly seems to enjoy his job and shares an insiders take on family law. Wendell was the one person who pointed out that I could file for parenting time enforcement myself. This was very helpful and saved me a lot of money. L...ater I needed help when my ex wanted to relocate. Unfortunately Wendell was too busy and I had to look elsewehere. This is when I learned how expensive and ineffective some lawyers can be. I really appreciate all of his help; whenever I call he always remembers my case and offers his advice.

Understanding

Wendell Belknap was understanding when I filed for divorce from my husband in 2012, changed my mind and then went back to Wendell to continue the process in 2013. He always answered my questions, was specific about what I needed to do and always had my best interests in mind. Also, he laughed at my... jokes. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a divorce.
