knowledgeable, available and affordabe

I contacted Atty Medley from a referral by a friend who lives in the Haverhill MA area. I am currently living in Florida and as my case involved past issues from the State of MA, I needed someone recommended in the area of family issues and local in MA. She was knowledgeable, available when nece...ssary and not overbearing as some legal professionals are. My case was settled to my satisfaction and I would recommend her to anyone who needs legal assistance.

Divorce

Nicole was my third attorney, the one who ultimately resolved a grueling three-and-a-half-year divorce battle. She joined the case when I was deeply affected by the conflict, fully cognizant of the general disdain for lawyers and the imperfections of our legal system. My previous lawyer had become a ...source of fear and distrust, as I did not believe she prioritized my best interests. I engaged Nicole to finalize an agreement that had been pending for years due to my former lawyer's lack of availability and reluctance to follow the judge's guidance. I was unable to counteract my husband's deceptions and the ongoing smoke and mirrors. Within an hour, Nicole grasped the nuances of the case like no one else had. She proposed a new perspective on an asset managed by my husband, which resulted in me receiving a slightly larger settlement, something my previous lawyer had overlooked. For those feeling vulnerable during such a challenging time and in need of a lawyer who is both gentle and assertive, knowledgeable, up-to-date, compassionate, and brave, I wholeheartedly endorse Nicole. Although she has the qualities of an excellent therapist, it is her legal expertise that is most beneficial—she guides and educates you about the legal system, your options, and stands by your side. .

Amazing family law attorney!

I was impressed by Nicole’s expertise. She handled my case with professionalism and achieved an outstanding result. If anyone is looking for a family lawyer i would highly recommend her.

Nichole is an Absolute God Send!

We were referred to Nichole by a friend, and I could not feel more lucky that we found her. During a custody case that took more than 3 years, between Covid and a judge that wanted to prevent us from going to trial however possible, Nichole was there for us every single step and was the best advocat...e for us imaginable. Not only did we end up with significant positive changes to the custody agreement, but she also allowed us to have the power to finally stop the constant abuse, harassment, and manipulation by the plaintiff that had been going on for many years. She was so brilliant at coming up with ways to help us, even with the judge dead set against us (and all fathers apparently), that we finally feel that we can parent without being belittled and minimized at every turn and can have equal say in our child's life. Nichole has endless patience and will work with you to get you through all the aspects of your case. She was available whenever we needed her, and we felt that she was 100% on our side, no matter what, which gave us the strength to keep going through all the challenges of dealing with the court system and the plaintiff's attacks. I would recommend Nichole to anyone that wants to have a lawyer that truly stands with you and can get it done for you even against the odds!

I highly recommend Attorney Nichole Medley.

Nichole is an attorney for the Law Offices of Jamie Mauritz James. She demonstrated legal expertise and knowledge when I hired her to represent me in a particularly complex custody case. She explained the legal process in a manner easily understood by anyone and she adequately prepared me for everyth...ing leading up to my court appearances. Her credentials are impeccable and her legal training and expertise are evident in her interaction with other lawyers, paralegals and courthouse staff. For clients seeking legal representation, I highly recommend Attorney Nichole Medley.

"I have been on the opposing side of the table from Nichole in several divorce and family law cases. Many of the matters were highly contested and complex. However, Nichole never lost sight of the goal of a peaceful resolution. Nichole has an outstanding ability to find find the common ground to bring parties together to resolve the matter. She also has extensive and impressive knowledge of divorce and family law. I strongly endorse her without any reservations."
