Whelan Law Office

- A Retainer Fee for Nothing - I hired Whelan Law Office for a custody case, and I can honestly say it was one of the biggest mistakes I’ve ever made. The initial consultation was a masterclass in false confidence. They promised a well-organized, aggressive strategy and made me feel like I was in the best hands possible. I paid a significant retainer fee, believing that their professionalism would pay off. The reality, however, was a complete betrayal of that initial trust. When we got to court, it was like watching a completely different firm at work. My lawyer seemed unprepared and lacked the fight they had promised. They essentially laid down and allowed the opposing counsel to run over our case with little to no resistance. All the promises of a strong defense and a meticulous strategy dissolved into a passive, lackluster performance. My money was spent, my time was wasted, and the outcome was devastating. If you're looking for a law office that will actually fight for you, I'd suggest you keep looking. This firm is all talk and no action. I truly regret trusting them with something as important as my family's future.

Mr. Whelan and his team were 100% exactly what I prayed for. They were precise, courteous and professional throughout my divorce. Very detail oriented and meticulous!!! Also very personable.

I have never been in a law office and felt as comfortable that these guys made me feel they are the best

The best of the best.

They were very positive at the consultation that they could help us with our nephews guardianship case, but after we put down the retainer fee things went down hill. I was the one putting timelines together, asking for Joanna the paralegal to subpoena police reports and cps reports. If we didnt stay on top of them nothing got done but they sure made sure to charge you for it. Court date kept getting pushed back because Lawrence was out of town. Hired them in January 2022 and nothing had been done by November 2022. Just money hungry, not organized and no help at all.

Lawrence is the real deal. He has represented on a number of cases and won every time. He and his staff are amazing, very easy to work with and they are on top of every detail.. In court he is aggressive when necessary,extremely confident, handles himself like a professional and gets the job done. I highly recommend Whelan law.

Highly dedicated and responsive. Mr. Whelan and his team will have your back.

If I could give this firm less stars, I would. Theese people are predators of your wallet. Steer clear.

This firm is pricey, yes. But, if you work out a plan with them and you stay on top of things, they will work with you.

Been with the Whelan law firm on two separate cases , will be our go to lawyer from now on

Mr. Whelan and Joanna, his Paralegal were exceptional in handling my case regarding custody modification. They were compassionate / knowledgeable and most importantly realistic. We were recommended by a couple others to this attorney and we would recommend/use him and his staff again.

Staff was very friendly and courteous. Whelan asked for a continuance on more than 1 occasion because he had other court hearings to attend. He did not know that their were mandatory jail sentences for DUI charges or that house arrest could be served instead of jail. Not worth the money.

This law firm will NOT back you. Don’t waste your time or money with this firm as they especially Mr Whelan will NOT keep their word on what they will do for you. By them Misrepresenting and not objecting to false claims they cost me my children. Stay away from this firm!!!

Whelan is a bulldog. He represents extremely aggressively. The only downside is that he's very expensive. Worth it. But expensive.
