Nina Macfadden Helwig

Nina made unprofessional and unusual costly recommendations that were outside the norm and kept children away from mother. Supervisors involved believed that her actions were not justified and only added to financial costs and stress to the children. A case that should have taken 3 months took near...ly a year because of Nina's influence.

Nina was appointed by the court for my two children during a bitter custody battle. She was an excellent lawyer who faught very heard to defend my children, even thogh the judge ruled against her recommendation at first. Weeks after the judges ruling, things started to get even worse then it was befo...re for my 12 year old. After the first ruling she filed for emergency hearing and got the over night suspened permanetly from other parents house. She has given my children their child hood back, peace of mind, and security where they can go to sleep without having to worry abut anything. They can be care free children again. Her fees were very reasonable. I would recommend her to any one one who is in a bad situation and needs legal help to defend and to protect the children. Thank you Nina for all you have done for my children to give them a healthy and happy childhood going forward.

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.
