This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

A competent lawyer and a great guy

I found Jim Nystrom online, having just recently relocated into the Alpharetta area, and hit the jackpot. Jim has been an invaluable advisor and counselor where my tax difficulties are concerned, and I have never reached out to him that I did not receive a lightning fast response. I cannot recommen...d him highly enough.

A wonderful referral

My CPA referred Jim to me to use as a lawyer for help in opening a business. He said he would be fair with his fees and that I could trust him. He was absolutely correct. Jim has answered all questions I ask of him in a timely manner and with much expertise. I am still in the process of opening m...y business and I feel very confident that I can rely on Jim for answers to all of my questions.

The First Person I think of When Legal Matters Arise

I have utilized the legal services and advice of Jim Nystrom since 1986 - (27 years). He is very thorough, easy to contact, and readily available to discuss the matter at hand. He has always been straight forward and honest with me and, over the course of those 27 years, he has become not only "my ...attorney", but also my friend. I find his fee structure to be fair and reasonable. His services and advice relating to general buisiness matters, business contracts, non-compete agreements, leases, real estate matters, wills and trusts, private family matters, and HOA matters, have been of great value and I trust his advice implicitly. He has always served me well. I highly recommend Jim Nystrom.

Outstanding!

Jim has become a trusted advisor and friend of our family. He and his team have helped us navigate through some complex situations and transactions. It is also a tremendous asset to have real estate specialists on his team (his wife is an excellent real estate agent, and his one of his associates is ...a pit bull in the field of banking and lending). Jim is always sensitive to our personal situation, goes the extra mile and is conscientious in providing very reasonable fees. We will always turn to Jim for our family and business legal advice, and give him the highest recommendation to others!

Solid Recommendation

Have been associated with Jim for over 10 years and he has guided my family through the various adjustments needed as life changes occurred. He was particularly helpful as we worked through the liquidation of three different estates, one of which involved an arbitration. Jim is informative and tho...rough and continues to keep us aware of changes in the laws that may impact our situation. I would highly recommend him personally and professionally.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
