Review for Mr. Taylor and Nicholas Zaurig Law Firm

I’ve had the privilege of working with Mr. Taylor and his team at Nicholas Zaurig for about five years, and I can't recommend them highly enough! In 2025 and again in 2026, I faced court battles over child custody, visitation modifications, and a contempt case. I'm thrilled to say we won both fights!... What truly stood out to me was Mr. Taylor’s exceptional communication and responsiveness throughout the entire process. He made me feel welcomed and valued, and I genuinely appreciated his honesty. Mr. Taylor didn’t sugarcoat things; he was straightforward about the realities of my situation, which I found incredibly reassuring. More than just a lawyer, Mr. Taylor became a confidant. He fought for my son and me as if we were his own family. He recognized the unique struggles I faced as a single mother and made sure my voice was heard. I felt seen and understood, which made all the difference during such a challenging time. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Taylor and Nicholas Zaurig Law Firm to anyone looking for legal assistance, especially in family law matters. Thank you, Mr. Taylor! I am incredibly grateful and blessed that you and your firm were part of my journey.

I highly recommend Andrew Taylor at NZS Law for anyone dealing with a difficult child custody case

From the start, Andrew impressed me with his thorough documentation system. Every court filing was clearly organized and professional, which gave me confidence heading into hearings and trials. He genuinely listened to my concerns, wants, and needs, and balanced them with thoughtful, strategic legal ...insight. Even when he offered a different perspective than the one I wanted, he explained his reasoning clearly, and more often than not, his judgment was spot-on. When we did disagree, Andrew always gave me his best legal advice and ensured I understood the potential consequences. Ultimately, as long as it wasn’t to my detriment, he supported my choices. That level of respect and collaboration meant a lot to me. High-conflict family law cases can become expensive, but I always felt that my billing was fair and reflected the amount of work and preparation that went into my case. I never hesitated to ask questions about invoices, and Andrew always took the time to explain them thoroughly. It was evident he has a strong understanding of the PWC JD&R courts and how to navigate their procedures effectively. I sincerely hope I never need a custody lawyer again. If I ever did, I would absolutely retain Andrew again, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking competent, respectful, and thoughtful legal representation in family court.
