Great Job!

I hired Nathan to be my divorce attorney. I found him to be very knowledgeable in the law but still could easily explain it to me as a layman. Nathan worked on my case for over a year. During that time I found he was usually very easy to get a hold of and would respond within a few hours of my r...equests. Nathan also was very good at managing his time on my divorce and stayed within my original retainer amount. Overall I would strongly recommend Nathan.

Thank You

I appreciate you walking me through the unexpected process of separation. It wasn't by choice but I am glad you were there to help. You covered all the questions I had very throughly and it was much appreciated again. I look forward to meeting again to finalize my divorce.

Great Legal Team - Nathan Sheldon & Lori!!!

Nathan and Lori handled a divorce for me and all in all I feel like they did the best job that could be done. He was able to avoid mediation and offered many options in paying alimony, child support, etc. They treated me with respect and not just as another client. I travel much for my job and he ...was flexible in communicating with me via email, texting, etc. I appreciate his and Lori's work! I highly recommend him!

Professional, honest and straight-forward.

A good friend recommended Nathan Sheldon to me after I had met with several other lawyers. I was going through a divorce and the other lawyers I met did not seem focused or interested when I was giving them details of my situation and how I wanted to proceed. Upon first meeting Mr. Sheldon, I was p...ut at ease by his demeanor and felt like his entire attention was on getting the facts together and listening to my situation. Once I finished he suggested several approaches and presented them in a way I could comprehend. He also answered many of my questions and made sure I was satisfied with his approach. Once we put together a comprehensive plan, he helped me complete the docments, filed our papers and kept me in the loop throughout the process. His fees were also very reasonable but most importantly, he did everything he could to find a successful solution. I would highly recommend Mr. Sheldon for any of your legal needs.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
