Do not hire him

He is the worst lawyer i have ever work with. He did not do anything for my case. He made up story to tell you to believe him. I felt so regret hiring as my lawyer. Not only you will be wasting money, your time and you will get the crime charged.

Excellent attorney

Turn best part of attorney Nathan is he keeps you informed by email and phone all the time and takes your call all the time we won on a clerk magistrate hearing and my record remains clean

Success outcome! Thanks Attn Nathan

I will try to keep this short and concise. A couple of years ago I got two speeding tickets in a matter of a couple. Prior to this, I hadn't had a ticket in over 15 years. I knew that if I didn't get out of these my surcharge for the points was going to probably double my auto insurance premiums for... the next several years. After addressing the first ticket at the clerk's hearing without success, I started looking for help and came across G Nathan. I called him and left a message, he returned my call that day. I hired him to address both tickets. The second clerk's hearing I got a decision of not responsible (no points on your record). The first ticket went to court and I was successful there too. While I'm sure some people may have an issue with his rates, I did the math and I had no problem paying him for his service. I came out ahead, by the tune of over $5K in surcharges over the next 5 years. Just recently, my wife got a ticket. As she has a bad driving record (20 plus speeding tickets - she was in sales), I knew we need help. I called Attn Nathan. He has a network of lawyers that specialize in certain areas (district courts) ; do to the location of her ticket, he had one of those lawyers represent her. While they weren't able to get it dismissed at the clerk's hearing, the judge dismissed it in court. The entire time, Attn Nathan was in contact with us even though he wasn't directly representing my wife. My advice from these experiences is that if I get in trouble with a speeding ticket or motor vehicle violation, I won't hesitate to call him and trust that he will represent my interests well.

Worth the price I paid

I was looking for a lawyer to help me get out of a fairly complex traffic ticket that involved both speeding and "multiple unsafe lane changes". I searched extensively online and vetted a number of lawyers before choosing Geoff Nathan. I had no problem paying a little extra relative to what seemed ...like the going rate online given that reversing the ticket and not bearing the burden on my insurance and record was of the utmost importance. Geoff charged a little more but had a reputation in the legal field and presented himself much better than others with whom I spoke. Throughout my interactions with him and other counsel that he assigned to my case, Geoff was extremely responsive, thoughtful, and sensitive to my needs as a plaintiff, and he bent over backwards to get me a successful dismissal of both charges in front of the judge when my magistrate hearing only dismissed one of the two charges. While my experience is unique, and it certainly could have been a cut and dry dismissal at the Magistrate level as many cases are, I found that when things turned negative, Jeff showed the composure and professionalism of a seasoned attorney, which is what I had hoped for at the outset. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who doesn't want to choose at random lawyer on the web and just hope to get a decent. Geoff is a very experienced, well connected, and reliable lawyer with a proven reputation for winning cases like this, and in my case he was relentless in getting me the only outcome that I would accept, and it was well worth the price under the circumstances of my case. If I ever have an issue in the future, I will use Geoff Nathan, and I’m willing to pay extra for the peace of mind of knowing that my case will be handled properly.
