When asked what kind of law I specialize in, I often pause before answering because lawyers are expected to focus on one area of the law. As a matter of voume and frequency, most of my cases are in family and matrimonial law but I also handle landlord tenant cases, commercial litigation, real estate litigation. immigration, bankruptcy and other general practice matters. However, my true expertise lies in listening and understanding what it is that is threatening my client's legal interests and finding the most cost and time effective solution to the same, irrespective of the area of the law. Often times, that involves me handling the legal issue myself and in other limited occessions, it means referring the matter to someone with a different skillset than I have. Clients who contact me can count on receiving an honest assessment of their situation and receiving cost-effective services suitable to their budget.

Initial Consultation
Nelson was very thorough with listening to my case and my needs. He took the time to review a few of the documents that had already been filed and was able to give me a few next step.
