My divorce was supposed to be clean and easy, over in a year and a half. Thank heaven for my attorney Bill Whittaker at Weaver Bennett and Bland because it turned out to be anything but! Bill stayed focused, he laid out all my options, and answered all of my "what if" scenarios. Any thing my ex- husband and his subsiquent three attornies threw at us, Bill got me involved, asked me my opinion, listened to my concerns, and answered my questions. Every decision was up to me, but I felt qualified to make it because I was made aware of the good, bad, and ugly that could happen. Bill is an attorney that stays the course, and doesn't try to force you to make decisions. He is honest (sometimes brutally) and tells you what he thinks will result from each decision you make. I would use him again in any capacity if I needed an attorney in his field.
Bill was great. His strongest strength is his knowledge and explaining the process. The whole firm was very quick to respond to questions and handled this better than I expected. I would definitely use them again for any future law needs and would recommend them to anyone I knew.
I retained Bill Whitaker, of Weaver, Bennet and Bland, to handle my divorce, and have been completely satisfied. This was a very difficult and drawn out divorce, due to the other parties involved, but Bill dealt with all the problems and delays in a timely and efficient manner. Bill kept me informed at all times and pays great attention to detail. I have also used Weaver, Bennet and Bland for my estate planning and was also completely satisfied with their work in this area as well.
I would recommend Mr. Whittaker 100 percent. He was a wonderful lawyer that explained everything to me and was very patient and kind, . He help me with a Post Nuptial.
Bill Whittaker was very thorough and responsive. He is easy to work with and communicates clearly to make sure that all the bases our covered. I never had to wait long to receive a return email or phone cal. The law firm seems very organized. Every task from receiving documents to paying invoices had an electronic option and was easy to do.
I was referred to Mr. Whittaker's Law Firm by a friend of mine and as this was my first separation, he took the time to address my commoner questions and concerns. He was extremely efficient and as soon as I hired him he was on the ball thus saving me a lot of time and money in the long run. That's really all I could ask for and I am highly satisfied with hie performance!
Bill is very no nonsense, doesn't beat around the bush. He gave me great preping for trial. He left no stone unturned. He made sure I had my evidence for all possible outcomes. I like how he humbles himself in court and shows the judge respect. If there's something Bill wants to do in my case that I don't feel comfortable with he listens to me and respects my wishes. In the begining I was nervous that my divorve was going to be too expensive. Seeing Bill in action in court and seeing the results I'm getting I have now realized the money was well spent. He supported me through a very depressing time by refusing to let me give up on myself. Bill is not only a good lawyer he was also a mentor and a part of my support system. Worth every penny.
Bill Whittaker represented me in a very painful separation agreement. He did everything he could all along the way, to ensure the outcome was as good as I could expect. He is so experienced, and understands the law and the court system, that I knew I was in excellent hands. I would recommend him to anyone needing legal counsel. I always had the sense that he was not wasting time or my money in the process. I felt he was honest and forthright about potential expectations. I would also like to say that he has a very kind, helpful, knowledgeable paralegal working with him, Cherie Carter. I feel they make a great team.
Thank you to Bill and his paralegal Cherie for helping me through a difficult and stressful time in my life. Bill was patient with me and took time to explain the pros and cons for the decisions I had to make. He was with me every step of the way and always had my back. I hope I never have to use him again but if I should, I would call Bill again without a second thought.
I had been with a reputable family law attorney and firm for a year, and it was being suggested that I "settle" with terms that made me very uncomfortable. After spending many thousands of dollars, I was at loss and felt like I was being overwhelmed, and that my attorney didn't have my or my son's best interests in mind. Weaver, Bennett, & Bland's firm was brought to my attention during this time of contemplation; so I called, feeling I had nothing to lose. Mr. Whittaker spent almost an hour with me on the phone: listening, and going over the possible outcomes. Within a week, I had left my previous firm and started working with him. My case was an arduous process due to various circumstances; however, there wasn't a single time when I felt Mr. Whittaker was losing hope that we would come to a much healthier agreement for myself and my son. Mr. Whittaker's reassurance and fortitude completely changed the dynamic of my case, and I can't say enough good things about his work, his assistant Cherie, and the final outcome.
