I contacted Alan C. Olson and Associates for a consultation and my case was handed to Nick McLeod. I found him to be extremely professional, honest and straight forward.His level of integrity is unsurpassed. I was impressed by his knowledge and expertise, and I always felt confidant that my case was genuinely important to him.When I had a question, his response was immediate.Although a legal dispute can be somewhat daunting, Nick was effective at keeping me calm and focused.Nick is a young guy......don't let that fool you! If you are in need of an attorney, you want to retain Nick McLeod!

Client Review:
Nick was very good at keeping me informed about my case, and when I thought things were progressing a litle slow, after contacting him, he immediately pushed the other lawyers to respond. Even though I did not recieve the monetary award I had hoped for, it was not Nick's fault, and he explained very clearly the reason, which made sense after the explanation. At all times, he advised me on the best way to proceed with the case, allowing me to give my input, and I feel we were successful in our pursuit. I realize he is young, but I believe he will be a successful attorney because of his dedication to his clients and his knowledge of the law.

I highly recommend Nick Mcleod; I would request his services again.

Client Review:
I posted an inquiry online to his firm for assistance with a workmen's compensation problem. He responded to me the very next day and assured me I could win my case. I hired him immediately. When I met with him, he spent 1.5 hours with me, asking the right quetions and prepping me for the hearing. He was very kind and knowledgeable. He met with me again before the hearing and calmed me down and was very diligent in making me focus and understand the proceedings. The hearing went exactly as he described. I know I could not have won without his help. I highly recommend him.

Client Review:
Represented myself in an unemployment hearing. Upon meeting him, it became very obvious that although he is a younger attorney, he was confident and certainly was prepared and knowledgeable. With his representation, the case was easily won. Nick was poised and asked the right questions.

Client Review:
Working with Nick was somewhat of an unknown. I was referred to alan Olson by some attorney friends of mine. In the middle of my representation I was switched to Nick. At first I saw this as a white flag ,but nick, as he got better and adjusted became a real asset. I recognize you have to start somewhere but I wasn't sure it was right for me. We ended up winning our case (decision final on May 18, 2010) and restoring my faith in someone that was truly on my side. I would'nt hesitate recommending Nick to anyone who is put in a silmilar situation as I was.

Client Review:
I had lost my faith in the legal system for some time due to past experiences with other attorneys. It is refreshing and I am so blessed to be working with Attorney McLeod. HIs knowledge with the employment laws is nothing short of outstanding. Most importantly his professionalism and integrity should be an example to others. Our community needs to be aware of outstanding attorneys because there are very few out there.

The firm Attorney McLeod works for is Alan C. Olson & Associates. Every person associated with this law firm is excellent to work with. Attorney Alan C. Olson should be proud of himself and his law firm.

I just want to say Thank You.

Client Review:
Alan Olson and Associates are effective advocates for Employee Rights. I originally started with Alan and then my case was handed to Nick. At first I was a little nervous but let me tell you, he is a very clear headed and straight forward attorney. He is very knowledgeable and always provided me with solid suggestions. He is very cautious and works hard creating a strong case. I also believe that he is of strong moral character. I would and have recommen Alan & Associates to my friends.

  • I recommend Nicholas McLeod.
  • I used Nicholas 1-3 years ago.
  • Nicholas handled my Discrimination matter.
  • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.
Client Review:
After numerous searches and meetings with other attorneys, they just did not sound as confident and attentive to the details of my case as Alan C. Olson & Associates, S. C. After meeting attorney Olson, my case was handed over to attorney McLeod. My experience with Nick has been very pleasant. Nick is very professional and he had good knowledge of my case the entire time. His response turnaround time was great; sometime I would get same day responses. He was also very thorough, which is something very important to me. I would definitely recommend him.

Client Review:
I had a great experience with Nick McLeod. I came to Nick after my employer discharged me as Human Resources Manager, which I believed I was terminated without reasonable cause. However, Nick settled my case quickly, was always professional, and responded on a timely manner. He was an easy attorney to work with and able to provide competent legal assistance throughout the entire time he represented me. I am extremely pleased with his work ethics and would recommend him to any acquaintances, friends or family members. If I had a chance to work with Nick again in the future for any legal disputes, I would not hesitate to make him my number one choice. If you are contemplating which attorney is suitable for you, I suggest Nick to end your troubling frustrations.

Client Review:
For an attorney with only a year or two of experience, Nick represented me in a professional, thorough and excellent fashion. He was always available and attentive to my needs. I felt like he was extremely knowlegeable in his field. My case was very complex and he spent more than enough time to understand the nuances of my situation. I would definiteley recommend he represent you (or myself again). Richard Freiwald

  • I recommend Nicholas McLeod.
  • I used Nicholas more than 3 years ago.
  • Nicholas handled my Employment / Labor matter.
  • I have previously worked with no lawyers.
Client Review:
I've always tried to be a fair employer. However, an ex-employee filed a complaint against me demanding $43,000 in back wages. To make matters worse, if he was correct in his assumptions, I would owe about $400,000 in back wages to both former and present employees. On a strong recommendation I was advised to seek counsel. I met with Nick who quickly put me at ease. Nick assured me that most of the claim was unfounded. I left my case in Nick's hands and it was resolved within a couple of months. Nick kept me well informed throughout the process. My hands on involvement after submitting all the information that Nick requested was zero, the same amount that I ended up paying out to my ex-employee.
I would recommend Nick to anyone in a heartbeat.
