Nina Macfadden Helwig

My son is a young adult living with mental illness. His condition rendered him unable to communicate or advocate for his own needs. I sought and acquired Legal Guardianship of my son with the help of Ms. Helwig. As a result, I was able to obtain proper medical care for my son which gave him his li...fe back and he has now been happy, healthy and functional for the past one and half years! He has returned to college, maintains a high B grade point average and is enjoying his life. Ms. Helwig was extremely knowledgeable and effective as well as showing great kindness and compassion to my son. I seriously attribute by son's improved health and wellness to Ms. Helwig. I recommend her highly!

Nina has been a wonderful co-guardian and lawyer. She has always been responsive and has taken a genuine interest in my 95 year old father! Nina understands the needs of the elderly, and how to handle sensitive issues such as dementia. I can always count on her for guidance. I would happily recommend... Nina Helwig as a guardianship attorney. She is fantastic!

Nina was assigned by the courts as the BIA for my stepdaughter. She went above and beyond to make sure her best interest was taken into account. Nina is a direct and fair professional. She was quickly able to assess the credibility of the parties involved, and where they stood in the best interes...t of my stepdaughter. My husband and I could not have had a more positive experience in such a difficult and stressful situation. Nina was the epitome of class and compassion. Most of all, she was thorough in dealing with our custody case. She truly cared about the well being of her client which pleased us immensely. She is a true advocate for children’s best interest. I would recommend her in any case involving child custody matters.

I found Nina Helwig to be an articulate and considerate best interest attorney for my children. Despite the outcome of my custody trial, I believe my children’s best interest were first and foremost in Nina’s delivery to the court. Her findings and recommendations were impartial, and she drew her con...clusions based on facts ascertained during her numerous interviews of myself and the other parent, school officials, and other parties who are actively involved with my children’s day-to-day. Despite not gaining custody as I had desired, I believe Nina did an excellent job and really believe she is an advocate for the child (children), and is not a representative for either parent’s interest.

Nina was a blessing to us during my custody battle in America in 2011. Nina was recommended by the court as Best Interest Attorney to my two children and rescued the children from their violent father and his unaccommodating wife. Nina came on board at the dying moments of the case, when I had alm...ost lost hope and was about to head back to England, without my two children. She came and changed all that for the children and myself with her incredible work. Nina was quite thorough with the way she handled the case. She quickly made things go easier than we had anticipated with her thoughtful guidance and experience and this was truly appreciated. Beyond legal advice, she showed great care as a human being, listened to the children, took them out for lunch and became a friend to them. A friend they could trust and speak to, as they were so fearful to speak to dad and his wife who forbade them from speaking to anyone else, including myself, their mother. Nina, you were a blessing and joy to work with and I can’t imagine what we would have done without your recommendations and presentation in the Child Custody case. Nina, I want to thank you again for doing a great job representing my children. We’re so grateful to you and look where we are now – we’re on the other side! I feel like I have gotten to know you fairly well; as have my children. It has been emotionally stressful for all of us, but we have remained strong. You were incredibly supportive and now, it is unto another stage of our lives; a much more positive one. Thank you so much, again!
