Our Trial Experience Benefits You

You benefit most by having an experienced trial attorney who has a demonstrated history of success. An attorney who is not afraid to go to trial, and is well-known as a talented litigator. 

 These cases are complex and aggressively defended. The issues of liability, causation and damages are frequently complicated and require experienced representation to be most effectively presented to a jury or to maximize your settlement.

At our firm, we deliberately pursue a limited number of cases at a time so that we can provide our clients the full support and guidance they need throughout the stressful legal process. You will have the full attention and complete access to your attorney, who will personally handle your case at all times.

I was very pleased with the entire progression and results of my case and would definitely recommend Wes Smith

This note is in response to the excellent service and outcome of my case. Some months ago, I suffered a slip and fall resulting in a torn rotator cuff. This ultimately caused me to go thru two separate surgeries and many physical therapy sessions. I chose Wes Smith Law to represent me in my case against the establishment ultimately responsible for causing this fall and injury to happen. Having read many of the prior and recent accomplishments I chose this firm primarily because of the absents of all the hype I see on the TV advertising. Wes was personally involved with the case every step of the way. He kept me informed of the progress as well as showing an interest in my treatments, recovery, and well-being. I was also kept in the loop with all advancements and communications pertaining to my case. When my treatments and therapy were completed, Wes began negotiations with the insurance company and before long, I found myself accepting a reasonable settlement. I was very pleased with the entire progression and results of my case and would definitely recommend Wes Smith to anyone finding themselves in a similar situation.

I will not hesitate to recommend your legal service to anyone who may need it. Thank you.

I want to express my appreciation for your kindness and expertise in handling my malpractice case, you were always polite, honest, and professional in guiding me through one of the worst experiences in my life. You are a very supportive, kind, and exceptional lawyer. You have held my hands and listened to me cry throughout my ordeal and that’s why I will recommend Weston Smith Law (Wes) to anyone that is looking for a malpractice lawyer. I would also like to thank Heather, especially for her excellent assistance. I will not hesitate to recommend your legal service to anyone who may need it. Thank you, Wes, for helping me through this difficult time.

– S.G.

I can’t say enough about Wes and his office staff.

When my wife and I found ourselves in the need of an attorney, we were referred to Weston. I can’t say enough about Wes and his office staff. Not only highly professional and responsive but caring people as well. When one is going through the stress of a lawsuit and the maze that is the legal system, you not only need an extremely competent attorney but one that can help you through the emotional ups & downs. Weston Smith is the “Gold Standard” for attorneys. Our case reached a successful conclusion and we are now able to sleep well at night.

– Bob D.

Without the amount of compassion Heather brings to the table, I'm not sure how I would have handled everything.

My case lasted three years. During that time, Heather Gilkey was there every day I walked into the office. She always treated me as if we had known each other previously. She felt familiar. She was always extremely responsive. Most importantly, she kept me sane. Hiring a lawyer after losing the closest person to you in your life is the last thing you want to deal with. Without the amount of compassion Heather brings to the table, I’m not sure how I would have handled everything.

– Tye W.

I appreciate that they always treated me, and my family members, with compassion, dignity and respect.

I highly recommend the malpractice law firm of Weston Smith Law. It was a privilege to work with the attorneys and staff. I appreciate that they always treated me, and my family members, with compassion, dignity and respect. They kept me apprised and up-dated on all aspects of my case. I found them to have integrity, and to be trust-worthy at all times.

– Sylvia C

Best legal representation you could ask for.

Never did I think I would need a lawyer, especially a lawyer for malpractice, I was wrong. After a medical procedure, I knew that I would need further care to repair the damage done during the procedure and that my life would change. I was referred to Weston Smith Law firm and had a consult. From the beginning I felt at ease, everyone in the firm treated me with respect, kindness and compassion. After the initial consult I knew I had selected the group that would represent me and I never regretted this choice. The lawyers were attentive, easy to talk with, even with the many, many calls and emails that I initiated. The paralegals were knowledgeable and professional. Their kindness and support helped me through the most difficult time of my life. Each step of the way I was informed as to what to expect, what additional information was needed and what was going to happen next. Any conversations they had with the opposing attorneys were immediately relayed to me. When the case was settled I knew that I had picked the perfect firm, I felt that the settlement was fair, and that I was well represented. The firm was diligent, honest and worked to provide me with the best legal representation you could ask for. Thank you for representing me.

– Barbara A.

Felt more like family than just my legal team.

Wes and Heather at Weston Smith Law were truly a Godsend during one of the saddest and most devastating times in my life. While I was battling overwhelming emotions from a tragic case of negligence that resulted in the wrongful death of my beloved husband, they were fighting tirelessly on my behalf. From the very beginning, I never once had to question how my case was being handled. Wes and Heather demonstrated not only professionalism and confidence but also an unmatched level of compassion. Their empathy was sincere, and my family and I felt it deeply. They were always available to answer my questions, walking me through each step of the legal process with patience and clarity. I especially appreciated how Wes protected me as his client—ensuring I didn’t have to constantly relive the trauma. That meant everything. I am truly grateful to God for leading me to Weston Smith Law. They not only delivered the results I hoped for but did so with dignity and care. I cannot thank them enough. By the end of it all Wes and Heather felt more like family than just my legal team.

– Tammie B.

It has been a great experience working with Wes and the entire firm. Everyone was kind, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. They guided my family and me through a difficult and emotional situation with genuine compassion. We truly felt we were in good hands with a firm we could trust and one that consistently worked in the best interest of our family.

– Tori B.

An outstanding law firm.

An outstanding law firm. Wes and Heather were always so cordial, respectful, helpful
and very willing to answer our questions, talk and explain the process with updates
along the way. The case was settled before the trial date which made us all very happy.

– Martha E.

Caring for our family during one of the most difficult times in our lives.

If you ever find yourself in the position of needing an excellent attorney, I can very
highly recommend Weston Smith Law! We had a wonderful experience with Wes and
Heather. Wes kept us well informed throughout the process, worked diligently to get us
a positive result, and showed a genuine concern and caring for our family during one of
the most difficult times in our lives. Heather went above and beyond in communicating
with us and worked miracles in our favor when it came to a medical lein involving our
case. They answered every question, addressed every concern, and thoroughly
explained every step along the way. We are so thankful for all their hard work and
excellent outcome. Thank you, Wes and Heather, from the bottom of our hearts!
