Mr. Weldon is an amazing attorney!

Mr Richard Weldon is an amazing, compassionate attorney, who goes above and beyond to help his clients. I had the pleasure to hire Mr Weldon 5 years ago and still and still there when I need him. He is an attorney who will fight for your rights. His dedication is outstanding and beyond my expectatio...ns.This is a man I trust 10000 % and would hire him again in a heartbeat . He works with his clients, goes to battle for you, will strive to get you the most respect and win! I felt blessed the day I hired him and I would recommend him to anyone I know. Rest assure that when you hire Mr Weldon you are hiring the best attorney in his field. A man who fights for your rights, who doesn'the play games and is direct and to the point. Trust me when I say he is the best attorney out there to me and I can say he would be for you too. Thank you Mr Weld on for being who you are and the caring you showed me during my divorce, I know in my heart the day you were hired by me , was the best decision of my life. Keep up the great job, many people need an attorney who is real and has the best interest at heart for his clients. Jessica

Thank you, Mr. Weldon!

Mr. Weldon took care of my divorce, and was a true lifesaver. Because of his attention to detail, he was able to save me from paying too much for a consolidated loan which was mostly my ex's. I am paying only my portion (less than 50% percent, which i was paying before), and even though my ex tried t...o fight that, he knew that he couldn't because it was set in the divorce documents. There were many matters that Mr. Weldon took care of but this is one that i still thank him for because it was and still is a big deal in my life.

Exceptional representation

Richard Weldon can be relied upon to provide excellent representation. His knowledge of the law is vast and his experience of the inner workings of the judicial system made the process of my divorce and subsequent child custody and support issues a relative breeze. I would not hesitate to recommend M...r. Weldon.

Highly Recommended

Mr. Weldon represented me in my divorce case and did a wonderful, thorough, and professional job. I was very impressed with his ability to manage all the issues and keep me informed for this very complex case, and honestly tell me what my legal options were. As a result, I was able to retain custody ...of my son, for which I'm forever grateful. Mr. Weldon truly has his client's best interests at heart and I'm sure will do his utmost for your case as he did for mine. Give him a chance, you will not be disappointed!

Excellent Representation

I was referred to Mr. Weldon by a former client of his who assured me that I would be getting the best by retaining him. This proved to be true and I was beyond pleased by his representation. His years of experience makes him ideal for representation for marriage dissolutions that are less than ami...cable! Because he has been in practice locally for so long, he is familiar with the other area attorneys who and utilizes that knowledge to his advantage when they are representing the "other party", which I think is invaluable. He is also very professional and kept me "in the loop" as to what was going on when he represented me. I continue to recommend Mr. Weldon to this day and he represented me several years ago. Top notch attorney.

"Richard is an excellent attorney -- He possesses a firm knowledge of the law, combined with years of experience giving him insight into our complex, often unfair legal system. He also possesses the wisdom to successfully guide his clients thru trying times. And maybe most importantly, he has a quality often lacking in so many grim attorneys - he has a great sense of humor with an optimistic attitude giving him a valuable advantage with every judge, every jury and every other attorney. He's a lawyer's lawyer who I heartily endorse."
