Nicholas John Wachinski

I had a very simple inquiry about a custody issue that Nick assured me he could handle. Maybe he could handle it if i could actually get a hold of him. After multiple attempts to reach out, he was unresponsive. I ended up hiring a different lawyer, who was so relieved i didn't hire Nick and informed ...me of his reputation in the lancaster area and courtrooms. so glad i didn't hire him!

My grandson's mother filed a PFA against our son when he told her she needed to move out of his home. Not having a place to live she decided to file a PFA against him and include his son. This meant he needed to move out of his home and could not see or speak to his son. Nick gave very sound advice a...nd helped get the fraudulent PFA against my son vacated by the judge. She tried to get Domestic Violence to represent her and after speaking to several attorneys in their office they wouldn't represent her. I am thankful that Nick was able to get the PFA vacated and that everyone including the judge realized that this was about her being able to stay in his home and that there was no evidence of abuse. Without Nick this could have been very devastating for our son and grandson. I couldn't be more thankful for Nick's help and guidance.

Earlier this summer, my son’s mother filed a fraudulent PFA after I gave her a notice to vacate my home. I had caught her with her pants and underwear around her knees about to urinate in my room, seeing as she already urinated in my car this was the last straw. Angered that she had lost her cheap pl...ace to live she went to the courthouse to file a PFA that as it turned out even Domestic Violence refused to support her in. None the less, for 31 days my son was trapped with his mother unable to see me, and my home that I owned solely was stolen from me. I called Nick and he immediately started working on my behalf. He was attentive, detail oriented and genuinely cared about helping me get my son back. In the end Nick represented me professionally and intelligently getting the PFA order fully vacated. The day I got my son back we both had tears in our eyes as my son told me it was the worst month of his life. That would not have been possible without Nick. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

If you’re considering hiring Nick Wachinski, I strongly recommend you think twice. We paid him for what should have been a simple custody modification, and over a year later we’re still waiting. Excuses, delays, and silence were the norm. The last thing we heard was that he’d be getting us a court... date… that was months ago. We’re now exploring our options, and I wouldn’t wish this experience on anyone. Steer clear.

When my case started getting complicated and I decided I needed a Family Lawyer, I retained Nick. Nick Wachinski is an honest, smart and efficient lawyer. His experience and knowledge showed in the courtroom and each time we met. Every time we went to court I knew what to expect and Nick helped k...eep my emotions in check. Nick was honest in assessing my situation and its expected outcome (which were in my favor). My calls and emails were promptly returned and I never was left worrying. I have recommended Nick to a friend for a custody issue and would recommend his services to anyone in need. I feel blessed to have such a great attorney in my corner.
