Posted by Johnny Bailey | October 15, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Miracle worker

I recently hired Nichole Greene in a last resort trying to get some older tickets and a order for arrest taking care of, she was the third lawyer that I had hired for the same tickets! One lawyer never even went to court and the other lawyer gave me the wrong court date twice, I contacted Mrs Greene ...literally within days not only did she take care of everything she actually got my DWLR dismissed and the order for arrest struck! AND cost me less money then either of the other two lawyers that didn't do anything. If you want your problems behind you I highly recommend you give her a chance to help you...

Inside the courtroom she did NOT disappoint! She argued my case like a true pro from angles I never even thought of. Very impressed by the outcome and her skills.

Astonishing Work!!!

Attorney Greene was heaven sent to my family, she was able to handle a custody case for us. My family went into the case as the "under dogs" but with her help we were able to come out on top. Attorney Greene went over and above our expectations. We would like her to know how grateful we are for all o...f her help. We also like her to know because of her, our family is now complete.

Hard working, dependable lawyer

Quick results on handling a traffic violation for my daughter. We live in another town and I had no clue who to turn to whenever my daughter received this ticket. I thank God that he led me to Nichole Greene. Her staff was very polite and curteous and answered all my questions and reassured me of ...Nichole's dedication of resolving any issues. I must say I was well pleased with every aspect of service we received here and would highly recommend her. Thanks again to all of the hard working staff in this office!

Nichole Greene really helped!!

We called Nichole to ask how to go about getting help for a family friend. He was a high school student over the age of 18 who really didn't know how to address some tickets and other issues he needed to resolve. Not only did Nichole jump in with both feet and take over his case, she did it FOR FREE...!! We were hoping to just get some advice on where to go and what to do. We honestly didn't think she'd take the case on herself and not charge anything. This young man didn't have any family support and we thought we'd help by trying to get him a court appointed attorney. His family didn't have any money to hire an attorney and I had no idea how to go about Getting a court appointed attorney. However I knew Nichole and thought I’d call and ask her how to go about the process. When she saw the situation she knew this young man would probably get a bad deal and have items on his record that he really could get removed, reduced or even dismissed. Well, the next thing I knew she was off and running. Not only did she get his charges dismissed, the only thing that he had to pay for was the court filing fees. I honestly don’t know how much Nichole charges, but I can sure tell you that she should get paid a TON. She got our young friend out of the situation he was in, he did his community service and now he can breathe a sigh of relief and look forward with a positive attitude and a clean record. THANKS NICHOLE, YOU ARE AMAZING.
