Amazing lawyer

I cannot give me a call enough credit for everything she has done for me she stuck by me for three years through some crazy court dates and situations. She always fall for me tooth & Nail she was there for me after hours and in emergency situations. She was very aggressive in court against my ex and ...not afraid to confront her about situations. I highly recommend her services

Can't give a negative number of stars or I would.

Does not return calls Overcharged Belittling clients Excessive workload makes her unresponsive. Case work was always handed off to her paralegals Way overpriced 2500 retainer 1500 collected from my ex Would not accept final 2200 in payments Was told to borrow the money Have me 5 days to pa...y 2200 Ended up removing herself from my case and charged me almost 3000 6500 dollars later and Im still not divorced

Review of Nichole Greene

I hired Mrs. Greene to handle my separation and divorce. She was always prompt with responses to my emails and phone calls. I felt like she represented me well and had my best interests in mind. She gave great legal advice and was thorough in every matter throughout the separation and divorce.

Excellent, effective and sensitive attorney

Ms. Nichole Greene is an excellent, effective and sensitive attorney. As an out-of-state driver, I engaged the services of Ms. Greene in the matter the resolution of a reckless driving charge, and was delighted with her swift and effective handling of this matter. My experience was that of timely com...munication, and efficient handling of this matter, as well as sensitivity towards my professional needs, which were time sensitive. Ms. Greene rendered an unpleasant and anxiety provoking experience as pleasant as can be reasonably expected! I would without hesitation recommend her services.

Posted by anonymous | July 20, 2015 | Child Custody

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!
