Attorney??

I had a consultation with Wade and I was a bit shocked with what went on. Rather than go into it, I would just say absolutely do not go here or even consider this man. NO!

Doesn’t Listen, Rude

Had a phone consultation with Wade. He was extremely unpleasant and rude, interrupted me any time I tried to say anything, treated me like I was stupid, and was only concerned about pressing the fact that he would charge me around $5,000 and demanded to know how it would be paid for. I don’t recom...mend him and won’t be hiring him. Glad the consultation was free!

Do not hire

They did not help in the case at all. They only sent the paperwork to the judge and did not fight the case at all.

DO NOT HIRE

FYI Wade P Bettis had his license suspended in 2007 and also was reprimanded and almost suspended for his behavior in 1998 … Wish I could give zero stars. Do not hire this lawyer. This area is a speed trap between Idaho and Oregon and the lawyer literally did nothing to defend my case. They had me wr...ite my side, submitted it, court found guilty, and gave traffic school. I could’ve done all of this myself and asked for traffic school. He didn’t even get my fine lowered even one cent. Total waste of money I didn’t have, total scam. Definitely got tricked by their “kindness”. Do not hire. Do not hire waste your money because you will not only be found guilty, and have to pay the full fine, you’ll also have to pay $50+ for traffic school. I wasted close to $800 when I could’ve just paid $$300….
