Hance Wesley McKenzie III

Being charged with a crime, regardless of its severity, can have long-lasting, devastating effects on many aspects of your life. You should seek the protection that an experienced attorney can provide as quickly as possible. The prosecution begins building a case against you from the moment you are charged or arrested, and waiting to hire an attorney is not in your best interest.

Wes McKenzie is committed to protecting your rights. We provide zealous and thorough legal representation from the beginning of your case until its conclusion. We will carefully examine the circumstances of your arrest in an effort to determine if your rights were protected. We will carefully explain any potential consequences as we help you make decisions that will ultimately serve your best interests. Wes will not wait until the eve of your court date to discuss the details of your case and leave you guessing as to what the possible outcome will be.
