Heaven Sent

We could not have had better representation. Mrs. Greene has been heaven sent from beginning to end. We admired and were so proud to be able to watch her and know that she was fighting for our little girl! As a father it is very rare to be able to be heard, but Mrs. Greene got me that within days aft...er i had been trying to put a word our for years. I am so grateful to have had her as my attorney.

Best Family Law Attorney around - Compassionate, Honest, Dedicated and Hardworking

Ms. Greene is the third attorney I have ever worked with in a child custody case. Previously I felt like the other attorneys did not care for my case, but just the money. Ms. Greene was defintely different as she made me feel comfortable, and seemed very concerned with my case. She did not tell m...e what I wanted to hear but instead she told me what to expect in Court which I appreciated. She did not mind speaking up for my case and defending me when the other side tried to say things that were not true at all. Attorneys like her are hard to come by as she always made herself available and no matter the time of day or night, she was always accessible. I would recommend her to anybody who wants an attorney that really cares about their case. I think she is in a class of her own - I have never met an attorney that cared for their clients like she does! I thank Nichole for her dedication and hard work in finding justice for my children - I could have never got custody without her!

Outstanding Legal Representation

Ms. Greene and her staff were wonderful in the representation I received from the beginning to the end of my legal experience. I received five traffic “advertisements” from various Legal Services that I sent e-mails to and Ms. Greene was the only one that seemed interested in really helping me. I f...elt like a person instead of just another file number. The others just replied "Call us." This let me know that Ms. Greene takes the time to read and interpret my situation then send me a reply in a timely manner. It’s hard to find a business of any kind that will give a person that level of service and I really appreciate it. When I followed up with calling her office, her staff was very courteous and helpful throughout the entire process. I could not have asked for a better experience She was very helpful and I received the exact outcome I expected. Very professional and I would recommend her to anyone.

horrible experience

Never again will I conduct business with this firm. Extremely rude, doesn't talk to her other co workers on what's going on. Tells you an exact amount of ho much its going to cost (mine was $5000), then drags everything out and expects you to pay more. Never answered calls and rather send a "text ...message" then pick up a phone. Gets angry at you when her co-workers doesn't update her and hangs up on you when you try to talk to her. I still have the current emails to prove to her that I had full communication of her law firm and instead of talking to her co-workers of better communication with her, she'll take it out on you. Never again will I ever conduct business with her and the military community has been warned.

My review for Nichole on a rating website for lawyers: Nichole Greene was on top of my case from the very moment we had our first meeting. She kept me informed step by step through the entire process. That lasted almost 6 months. Nichole is a fighter for truth and justice. She had a way of communi...cating with my opposing party that was both diplomatic and fair which brought out the best results. I highly recommend her law office to anyone who needs and honest and powerful attorney.
