    - 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.

    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.
