About Nicholas
Biography
I believe every client deserves a zealous advocate who cares about their case and keeps their client informed. My primary legal practice focuses on divorce and family law, and I also accept personal injury cases and a wide variety of other civil litigation matters (lawsuits). I offer very competitive rates for an attorney with my experience. My firm also represents people in real estate matters, landlords, business matters (including buying, selling, and creating), immigration matters, and estate planning matters. If you or someone you know needs help with a legal issue, please contact me for a free initial consultation. I am here to help.
