Calm and Steady Confidence

I hired Raheen Family Law, and I’m truly grateful for Jordan and his team for supporting me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. My divorce was deeply contentious, filled with tension, delays, and emotional stress. At the start, I was overwhelmed and unsure of what to expect. But Jor...dan stepped in with calm and steady confidence. He was thoughtful, strategic, and always focused on protecting my best interests while keeping the bigger picture in mind. What stood out most was his ability to stay grounded, composed, and compassionate throughout. He saw through the noise and kept the focus on resolution. He remained accessible and responsive, even while on vacation. Jordan, Laila, Erin, Hasti, and the rest of the team at Raheen Family Law brought much-needed stability to a very unstable time. I highly recommend them to anyone facing a difficult family matter. Their legal expertise and human approach made all the difference.

Reliable, Steady, and On Your Side

I hired Jorden Nye for my divorce, and he was great. My ex had a tough, well-known lawyer, but Jorden held his own and always had my back. He kept things on track and looked out for my best interests the whole way through.

Superior knowledge and Superior support bring a level of confidence

Jordan is a top-notch lawyer. No matter what the situation I found myself in legally with regards to my divorce case he always had an on time and on target answer and response. One out of 10, this lawyer is truly a 10 and you will not regret lining him up the support you and to protect your rights un...der the law.

10/10

I recently hired Jordan Nye for my divorce. He helped to make the process as painless as possible. He is kind, professional, communicative, and honest. He gave me the bottom line up front and then helped me to get to a place where I wanted to be in my divorce. He was able to navigate my issue with su...rprising ease and I would recommend him to anyone going through a contested divorce.

Satisfied Client

I reached out to Jordan initially for advice about the drafting of a simple separation and custody agreement. As time moved forward, there was nothing simple about what resulted in a two-year ordeal to get divorced. I highly recommend Jordan for anyone who is looking for an attorney that will conduct... themselves in a professional manner, be respectful of your needs, adhere to ethical standards, be responsive to calls/emails, keep you informed, offer effective strategies that suit your case, help you negotiate fairly and with reason in front of the court (4 hearings- 4 rulings in my favor), and show compassion during a very stressful time in the lives of you and your children. Divorce is difficult, Jordan made the process tolerable.

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.
