Sole Proprietor, Entertainment Industry

Nicole Haff has provided me with excellent guidance and impeccable work as I worked through numerous contract negotiations with her for my business. I am an influencer in the entertainment space, and Nicole served as my main point of contact for various contract negotiations in regards to my work and... business planning. She is the most responsive attorney I have ever worked with, was quick to understand my needs, and was assertive and thorough when communicating with the other parties involved. I could not be more grateful to work with Nicole, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal services.

Fellow Attorney

Nicole is a litigator with unparalleled excellence! She is the most knowledgable and capable litigator that I have worked with. I couldn't ask for a better litigator for litigation matters as she had an excellent grasp of the substantive issues and fully understands litigation strategy and the proce...ss itself. I highly recommend her!

Nicole’s extensive litigation experience is clear in her recommendations and advice to clients. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to clients, but at the same time, respects the wishes of how the client wants to engage and move forward. Highly recommend the Romano team for anyone that wa...nts trustworthy professional representation.

Excellent and Professional Attorney

I met with Nicole for a consultation and when it was over I felt like we had met multiple times. She was very knowledgeable and offered many scenarios as to how to proceed. She interpreted the law for me and went beyond, into other aspects of law that I should be aware of. Nicole is a very effectiv...e communicator and listens well. I would not hesitate to hire her for any contract law issue. She is clearly competent and I am certain she is a strong litigator.

Simply the best!

Nicole Haff is an outstanding attorney who is exceptionally skilled at navigating complex litigation issues. I've worked with many attorneys in various capacities. I can say that I've never met an attorney who brought nearly as much competence, logic, compassion, and strategical thinking to the ta...ble as Nicole. She worked tirelessly on my case, assisting and me throughout a dispute with a former business partner. Her pragmatic and thorough approach to the case made the entire process far less stressful than I would have even imagined.

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.
