W. James Payne Law Firm

W. James Payne – Law Firm Review For anyone in need of a defense attorney, I cannot recommend Mr. Payne highly enough. I am truly grateful that I chose him to represent me. Mr. Payne is methodical, thorough, and examines every possible angle — including what strategies the prosecution might use. In my case, I was an innocent victim being charged with assault by the very person who had actually assaulted me. Mr. Payne immediately recognized that I not only needed to have my name cleared, but also needed to preserve my right to pursue a civil lawsuit afterward. Mr. Payne is certainly “old school” — a man of his word. When he tells you something, you can believe it. He follows through on what he says he will do. While I would have loved for my case to be resolved sooner, it took only four mon

Having Mr. Payne as our son's attorney was very reassuring during a difficult time. From the local connections who recommended him to the bondsman and fellow attorney who said that if they had a kid in trouble, they'd want James Payne on their team, we always felt comforted knowing our son's case was in such capable and compassionate hands. Mr. Payne and his team are highly skilled and very kind. We will be forever grateful for the outcome of our son’s case, and I strongly recommend Mr. Payne and his team.

We reached out to James Payne and his exceptional team to represent our son during one of the most challenging times in our lives. It was the best decision we’ve ever made. Throughout the entire process, we never felt unimportant, overlooked, or dismissed. From the moment the firm agreed to represent him, they demonstrated an unwavering commitment to his case. Every phone call was promptly answered, motions were filed swiftly, and they managed to resolve the matter before any significant damage could be done. The thought of losing another child was unimaginable, and this time, it was to the very system that I had pledged to represent, which was devastating. Thanks to Attorney James Payne’s unwavering dedication, my son is now able to move forward and build a fulfilling and productive lif

One year ago in August 2024 I got into some trouble and was facing some very serious charges. I met Mr. Payne through an attorney in Hickory so I gave his firm a call to handle my case. Best decision I could have made. His staff promptly called me and made appt with Mr. Payne . He drove from Wilmington to Hickory for my interview. I can't express how professional and caring his staff was to me they were there for me at any time. My calls were always answered and they always kept me informed of what was going on with my case. Mr Payne is a very compassionate and caring person and made me feel like there was hope in my situation. I could not have a better attorney. Having a attorney with his determination and integrity was unbelievable! I highly recommend Mr. James Payne. Thank you Mr Payne

I want to start off by thanking Angela Vanderveer absolutely great at her job! Attorney Kaycee Dellos was appointed to my case! After the first initial consultation she immediately started working on my case! It was a 25 plus year case she was able to promptly seek action to settle. Unfortunately being young and dumb you do ignorant things and to resolve this issue from my past truly means a lot. Attorney Dellos is absolutely amazing the customer service is excellent and if anything ever was to arise again she will definitely be my lawyer :-)
