Greenwich Family Law Attorney
As an involved citizen and lawyer living and working in Greenwich, Connecticut, for more than twenty years, I am keenly aware of the specific issues that affect the people in our community. My law practice focuses on several areas of concern to many people in the area.
At the Law Offices of Douglas J. Wells, I work with local clients as well as out-of-town truckers providing experienced legal representation, and help to solve a variety of legal problems related to family law, probate administration and estate planning, criminal law and trucking violations. Contact me today to get the assistance you need for your specific legal matter.
I have worked as an attorney for more than thirty years. Much of that time has been spent as a litigator in hundreds of hearings and dozens of trials, effectively advocating for my clients. The first five years of my legal career was spent as a prosecutor in the district attorney's office of Suffolk County and Plymouth County, Massachusetts. In those five years I litigated more than a hundred criminal trials, securing convictions for those charged with murder, rape, robbery, arson and other serious felonies.
After leaving the district attorney's office and going into private practice here in Connecticut, I have garnered more than twenty years' experience in defending clients in criminal court and in litigating divorce, probate and civil litigation matters. This experience serves my clients well because they can rest assured that if the matter cannot be resolved without a trial, they are in the hands of a seasoned litigator who can advocate their position ably in court.
While I can provide effective representation in court, I also want to work with clients in solving their legal matters out of court. My aim is to find the best possible solution for my clients, one that causes the least amount of distress and discord. I am also involved in the Greenwich community: I am a member of the Representative Town Meeting serving as chairman of its Legislative and Rules Committee.
My legal practice is built upon three decades of experience. With each new case, I incorporate this experiential knowledge for the benefit of my clients. In addition, I believe that knowledge and understanding are key components in guiding individuals through the legal process. My clients feel a sense of empowerment when they understand processes, options, and outcomes, which enables them to make informed decisions about the matters that are often critical to their families and their financial future.
A majority of my work is comprised of four broad areas: family law, probate administration and estate planning, criminal law and trucking violations.
- If you are going through a divorce involving complex asset division or have questions about probate administration, I welcome the opportunity to provide useful advice and legal solutions.
- If you or your teenager have been charged with DWI or another crime, or have been cited for an overweight truck violation, rely on the Law Offices of Douglas J. Wells to help you through the challenges.
