Cant say enough good

Mr Nash has represented me in several criminal matters some of them were kind of connected and intermixed together. First of all he is a very nice guy in general which is hard to find in an attorney and he is also very competent. Secondly and even harder to find in an attorney he doesn't milk your wa...llet. There were many many times he talked me out of doing things that would have made him a lot of money because he was truly looking out for my best interest and he explained in detail and thoroughly my options and why he felt it was overall in my best interest to take less expensive option and he was right every time. He's not cheap but if you shop around you'll see his rates are very competitive. Really cant stress enough how personable he is and just an all around nice guy

Underage Drinking Offense

Attorney Nash was extremely helpful with explaining the information I needed to know while in and out of the courtroom. He was able to get my underage drinking offense reduced down to a disorderly conduct charge saving me from losing my driver's license for 90 days and the fine was reduced drasticall...y. I highly recommend him as you are looking into an attorney.

Better than expected!

Awesome job! I came to him one day before the hearing on a driving offense and he did better than I ever thought he could. Polite, professional and genuinely informative. He actually sat down and took the time to talk my anxiety level down, instead of rushing me out of his office. Good guy. Good a...ttorney.

Responsive; Professional; Personalized; Outcome Oriented

Mr . Nash has been my attorney for nearly two years and has done an exceptional job of representing my interests in two separate civil cases. He responds to concerns and questions in timely fashion with clear, concise information and clearly presents legal options from which to choose. I will continu...e to retain Mr. Nash for my legal representation for the foreseeable future.

Great job

Mr. Nash handled the writing of my will very efficiently and has worked with me to make changes as needed. He helped me understand different aspects of a will that I had not thought of before. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer.

Avvo Rating

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.
