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!

Do not hire this lawyer if you value communication and doing things the right way. He represented my ex when I filed a PFA and he advised my ex's family to trespass in our shared home without my knowledge, despite my ex being evicted and me having temporary full possession of the home. He then dodge...d calls and emails when I questioned this further. Nick believes he is above the law and that rules don't apply to him, his DUI convictions support that stance. Everything about him is shady, literally hire any other lawyer before even considering Nick Wachinski.

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.

Nick is a terrible human being. He willingly entered into a relationship with a married young woman with two children while being married himself. He then advised this young woman to file a PFA against her loving husband on a Friday so that he would be served over the weekend and told her to leave w...ith her children in the middle of the night. Anyone that has been sanctioned twice by the Bar Association and has two DUI's on his record is not someone that I would take legal advice from.

If this is the same person that practiced in Media PA I urge you to stay far far away! Our experience was abhorrent! Many promises were made and none were kept. Meetings and court dates were cancelled due to his "schedule conflicts" with no regard whatsoever for his client. We wasted so much vacation... time and lost work time, all for naught! We were later assigned another lawyer from the firm who was no better; suggesting we settle for a minuscule fraction of what we were after. My wife finally "fired" him and represented herself, winning her case and receiving nearly the full amount of what she was seeking!
