Best decision I made

I hired Ryan in 2015 and he has represented me in all of my custody hearings. I had every outcome favor me in every motion filed. I was an out of state father coming into my sons mother county thinking that would work against me. I was mostly impressed with how his aggressiveness arguing the exhibits... seemed so smooth. It’s a fine line to navigate without coming off as aggressive. And just as impressive was the in between the court hearings , I’m an anxious guy by nature and the calmness that came over me with just the way he communicated with me was very reassuring.... What kind of relationship I will have with my son would come down to who will fight hardest for me in court, I chose Ryan and he didn’t let me down

Posted by Sandy | March 23, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Alimony

Unrivaled...

After paying alimony for nearly 15 years my husband sought some expert opinions regarding possible modification and or termination due to his inability to continue paying upon retirement, a crucial matter which was NOT even addressed in the final divorce decree. In light of the amended alimony ...reform he met with two attorneys, one of which was actually involved in the alimony reform. Both attorneys felt he did not meet the new guidelines and therefore, would be bound to fulfill his obligation of "lifetime" alimony. A few days later he was referred to Ryan Nussey. We met with Ryan and he immediately made us feel at ease. He was straightforward, honest and blunt but also, very understanding. His knowledge of family law is exceptional and his confidence was very uplifting. He envisioned the entire process and was prepared to move forward. He and his colleague, Carolyn, made us feel like we were their only clients. Every phone call, e-mail, or question was immediately addressed. We met in October and as of March 31, 2020 my husband's alimony is TERMINATED!!! My husband can finally breathe!! Klineburger and Nussey. Ryan Nussey. The ONLY family law attorney you will ever need. Trust us, you are doing yourself a great injustice by not using Ryan Nussey. A huge thank you to Ryan, Carolyn, and all the staff! We are eternally grateful.

Excellent attorney

Mr. Nussey is an outstanding attorney. He is professional yet compassionate, organized and knowledgeable, pragmatic and straight forward. Mr. Nussey handled several motions for me, centered upon enforcement of my FJD. We were successful in each motion because he is brilliant and is very well respecte...d.

Great Attorney

Ryan has represented us for several legal matters over the span of six years now. Another attorney referred us to Ryan, telling us that he is the best. We are so grateful for that advice and fervently agree.

Posted by Amedeo | February 08, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Simply the best

Ryan has been representing me for my child custody case for the past four years. I have had several attorneys in the past , and no one comes close. I highly recommend Ryan. He is in the rankings of an Elite attorney. He is an outstanding attorney that gets results. I am so grateful to have Ry...an by my side. Thank you Ryan.
