Posted by anonymous | December 14, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Absolutely incredible, life-saving attorney!!!!

I could not be more grateful to have had Nick as my attorney and there are not enough kind things that I could possibly say about him. Not only did he win my child custody case by a landslide, but he TRULY was a life saver throughout the entire process. After dealing with multiple lawyers before him,... he was a Godsend. I am in awe of how well he handled every aspect of my case with care and diligence. He helped me to understand all of the possible outcomes and how we could be as prepared as possible to obtain the best one. Nick ACTUALLY cares about you and will fight for you because he wants to, not because he has to. He is compassionate, genuine, and goes above and beyond in his work.. Nick really listened to every word that I said and took it in. During this time in my life I was overly anxious and neurotic and Nick put my mind at ease every single time that I ever needed him to by explaining to me our exact circumstances and how we were proceeding in order to get the best result. He answered every one of my questions no matter how many times I asked them. He was encouraging and gave me hope so many times when I needed it. Nick is so understanding and thinks things through fully by taking all aspects of the situation into consideration. He pays very close attention to details and it makes a big difference. He was always proactive and far ahead of the game every step of the way. By the time of the trial I felt so prepared and more at ease knowing that he was going to be by my side because that is how much I trust him. Nick was so professional at each court appearance and it stood out. He knew exactly when and how to say things and his manner throughout every interaction in court was perfect. He is calm but confident, a true force to be reckoned with. I could never thank Nick enough for how much easier he made such a hard time for me and for working so hard to get me the amazing outcome that he did. He is such a good person and an incredible lawyer. When you are fighting for something as important as your child, you need someone by your side that you can trust and he is it. Thank you, thank you THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart!!! Nick, you are the BEST!

Thank You Nick

The firm Mr Arazoza was recommended to me by a very close friend. Little did I realize what an outstanding brilliant compassionate lawyer I would have. the whole team at the firm is so amazing and Nick’s attention to detail and quick thinking was amazing to see. This was a trying time for my son and ...I, Nick made sure that we were always mentally emotionally and physically ok. If I needed his advice no matter what time or day it was he was right there communicating with me via text or email. Thank you again Nick for an outstanding above and beyond job that you and the “dream team” at Campagna Johnson have done. Would recommend Nick and his firm to anyone. 5 stars and beyond

During the time I have known Mr. Arazoza as my matrimonial attorney, he has always been very courteous, calming, caring, and straightforward. He has been prompt in dealing with issues at hand and also excellent in obtaining resolutions without delays. He has certainly given me a sense of confidence... and security as my attorney during this time of extreme hardship and an unpredictable future.
