Greatest Attorney
Attorney Nicholson is incredibly knowledgeable and responsive. She has done a great job in collecting the evidence, communicating with the DA, and keeping me informed all the time. As a result, I got a great outcome: all charges are dismissed! Thank you so much, Meredith!

"I endorse this lawyer."
"Ms. Nicholson is a bright, hardworking, dedicated attorney who is an absolute joy to be around. I recommend her for any area, but especially for criminal law. She cares deeply about getting the best outcome for her client and that passion fuels her work. I don't know anyone who has spent more than a few hours with her who doesn't love her personality and respect her knowledge."
"Meredith is almost as great of a people person as she is a lawyer; That is to say she excels in both areas. She is someone you can always count on to find the middle-ground between two opposing positions, and if all that isn't enough she is also fluent in Spanish and French. I recommend her without hesitation."
"Great attorney."
"I have known Meredith professionally for 5 years now. She is one of the best lawyers I have ever had the privilege to work with."
