Posted by Edward D. Holfelner, RN, MSN, MBA | June 21, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent Attorney

Ryan represented me through my bitter divorce. My ex misused DYFS against me and I went through hell than back. Ryan fought for me and today I have joint Custody and am the Parent of Primary Residence. Ryan is very bright and well schooled in the law. He presents very well and is highly articulate. R...yan is a very fine court room litigator.

Quick, forthright, simple

Working with Ryan was a pleasure. He was forthright, direct, and honest. He worked swiftly to resolve what appeared to be very overwhelming to me, though I'm sure very commonplace in the scheme of things. Once retained, the situation was resolved within a matter of a month. Very intelligent,... logical, and creative to resolve issues. Highly recommend Ryan's services.

Untangled a problem without drama

Mr. Nussey was brought into my case very late in the process and helped fix a very complicated case without a lot of drama. He understood the problems quickly and figured out a path to the solution and worked towards that solution. We were able to settle the case based on his plan. His fees were r...easonable he worked out a payment schedule which helped greatly for me to afford to hire him. I would recommend him highly based on my experience with him.

Absolutely Fantastic Attorney

I was referred to Ryan through a family friend's attorney and I could not have been happier! As a single mother dealing with a horrific ex, retaining Ryan was the smartest decision that I've ever made. Ryan is extremely intelligent, professional, and ethical and is obviously well respected in the cou...rts. He represented me through my custody hearing as well as my motion for relocation. He is the one you want fighting for you and your children. My ex went through several attorneys and Ryan dismantled every single one of them. I am extremely happy with the outcome and cannot even begin to express the gratitude that I have for Ryan and his firm.

Update

After winning another (yes, the 2nd) appellate case for me, I can't express my gratitude to Ryan. I met Ryan at a low time, I called him right after losing a pro se motion where I had lost the little faith I had left in the family court system. I can't say that faith has been fully restored, it is ...far from a perfect system but Ryan has helped me better understand how it works and navigated it for me, so I'm not leaving the court house fighting tears. Because of Ryan, me and my family are able to enjoy a life that would not have been possible without him. His honesty, integrity, and work ethic are hard to find, not just in a lawyer, in a person. Ryan is the person that you want fighting for you and your child, he will fight hard, he knows family law, and he will give it to you straight from the start. I really could not have asked for more.
