Best lawyer I have ever had

I had a very important custody case from the moment I reached out to Nirm and explained what was happening he was there. We were on the path together every step of the way. I know it’s about getting paid, but he was different he listened, understood, and completed the task at hand in a timely manne...r. Even with the pandemic upon us and everything limited the task was completed. I am very satisfied and I highly recommend him to be your lawyer. Nirmalan Nagulendran

Highly recommended

Nirm handled my divorce and handled it well. He did an excellent job of listening and communicating -- I could always get him on the phone. And he handled things the way I wanted them handled; I never felt that I was getting the pro-forma, standard divorce case that he gives to everyone. That human i...ntelligence was important to me, because divorces aren't fun.

Excellent attorney

I retained Nirm for my highly contentious post-divorce parenting time issue. In the past I had retained a few attorneys, but Nirm was the only attorney that exceeded my expectations and provided competent counsel that produced the results my child and I needed. I recommend him 100 percent. Nirm was e...xceptional in his legal knowledge, courtroom presence, appropriately setting my expectations and getting me my parenting time that my ex was opposed to. I hired another firm for my initial divorce and paid for that mistake in the long-run with incompetent counsel. After hiring Nirm post-divorce, I was able to see the difference and there is no comparison, he is 100% dedicated to the the needs of his clients. Divorce is an emotional process with lasting implications. Definitely do your due diligence when hiring any firm to represent your interests and choose the one that is best for you. I can honestly say that Nirm was worth every dime and was the very best for me. I highly recommend him.

Great at what he does...

Nirm was awesome throughout my entire case! I had an extremely complex case and he helped to keep things on track. Although the other side was not playing fair, Nirm was strategic and thoughtful in our appoach. He ended up getting me 50/50 joint custody of my kids, which even the judge noted in my... order, was extremely rare for a father to get. Nirm has the ability to make tough concepts easier to understand, especially when so much is personally invested. I was better able to navigate what was really important and let go of those things that would not help my case as much. He was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely refer him to anyone who was in need of his services. Not to mention, he has a great sense of humor and was extremely easy to talk to from the start. His vast experience shined through in every aspect of my case. I think I ended up the best position possible given my circumstances. Thank you to Nirm and his office for all they have done.

Best lawyer I have worked with hands down

Nirm was amazing. Right from the get go he was friendly, straight forward, honest, and helpful. He told me what my legal options were, but more importantly he told me truthfully and honestly what he would do, and what would be the most cost effective option for me with my divorce. Throughout the pr...ocess he was always easily reached through email or phone call, I can't remember ever waiting more then a day to get a response from him in fact most of the time I was able to reach him immediately or within 20 minutes. He truly made my divorce more manageable taking almost all the stress off me and made the process smooth and speedy. I would advise anyone looking for a great divorce attorney to meet with him and see for yourself. I honestly can't speak highly enough for Nirm.
