Fantastic Attorney!!!!
I ran into financial trouble a few years back and was so scared I was going to lose my house. I had no knowledge of the bankruptcy process, didn’t know what to expect, and was scared to lose everything. (not to mention the embarrassment). I hired Kate Nicholson and I’m so glad I did. First of all, she made the process so easy for me. She explained everything in terms that I could understand and calmed me down when I panicked a little. She is extremely knowledgeable about the process and I felt “safe” with her in charge. I really felt like Kate genuinely cared about my case and worked hard to get the best outcome for me. My outcome was so much better than I expected and I think Kate was almost (if not as) happy as I was.

The Best!
Thank God i found Kate Nicholson when i was at a point in my life i never thought i'd be. I was behind in my mortgage payments and getting no help from my bank. I contacted Kate and she told me exactly what i needed to do, who to call and especially not to panic. She always got back to me if i had questions and never seemed aggravated that i had so many. Kate is professional, friendly, helpful and always had time for me. Thanks to her, we got it all sorted out and i'm still in my house. I couldn't have asked for a more helpful attorney.

An awesome attorney!
I'm thankful that I decided to seek legal counsel regarding a personal injury case that involved my 4-year-old son - and especially thankfully that I retained Kate Nicholson. Kate was an invaluable representative. She asked all of the right questions, and took the time to fully understand all of the facts involving our traumatic incident. Kate was cordial, conscientious, insightful, and made me feel completely at ease. Kate's legal expertise was indispensable, and the end result was a settlement that we felt was fair and equitable. My family and I are very grateful.

"I have known Kate for six years, through our involvement in the Massachusetts Bar Association, the Boston Bar Association and the American Bankruptcy Institute. Kate is a caring, hard working, and intelligent attorney. She is the first person I think of when I need to refer a client to another bankruptcy attorney due to a conflict. I would, without a doubt, trust her to represent a family member. I wholeheartedly and without reservation endorse Kate."
