Completely incompetent

This man must be one of the worst lawyers in the country. He dragged his feet throughout my litigation, carried out completely useless depositions, and finally confessed to me that he needed to stop using so much marihuana because it was clouding his mind. I paid him a lot of money and got nothing fo...r it. I lost much valuable time and my case suffered from great prejudice because of his complete incompetence. I warn everyone not to go near this “lawyer”. Run, don’t walk away from him.

Do not recommend

Peter Nissman took over 2 months to respond to my now husband's email containing all of the information to draft the prenuptual agreement. He did not get back to him with a preliminary document until 5 days before our wedding. As a result, we spent the week and, indeed, day before our wedding fighti...ng over the details. I had to cancel pre-wedding events with my family and friends.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
