I became an attorney after being wrongfully arrested and then hiring a bad attorney. I was cleared of all charges, but saw how the system is broken. Our justice system is against the accused from the very start. My family and I went through hell, but I fought back and cleared my name. I saw how a lot of attorneys just take money and don't fight for their client's future. That's wrong.. We do things different at Waynick Law. We treat you how we want to be treated. We fight for you from the start and keep fighting all the way through the end. Since we've been through the hell of getting arrested before, we understand being scared, confused, and not even knowing what questions to ask.. Call us and let us help.

I chose the practice of law because I believe in the fundamental rights that everyone has to a fair trial, to parent their children, to protect their property, and to be safe from incursions onto those rights. I primarily practice in the county I grew up, Tipton, in as well as surrounding counties such as Shelby, Haywood, Lauderdale, and enjoy hunting, fishing, watching sports, and spending time with my dog, Ora Mae.
