"defending parents accused of abusing or neglecting their children"

This man does not care about children. He ripped a child away from a loving mother based on unsubstantiated lies that were proven false in court. If you want someone who worships Satan, this is him.

Best in Class

Nathan handled my legal issue two years ago. He was honest and hardworking. I have recently sought his services again to assist my son. Nathan will always be my first choice for legal matters as he truly is the best in his field.

Absolutely 100% Recommended

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Nathan Sheldon. I truly believe that I am lucky to have found him and would recommend him to anyone without the slightest hesitation. My partner and I first hired Nathan in 2011 to assist us with an adoption. After much searching online, I s...ent out a round of inquiries via email to some legal firms that handled adoption. Several of these offices called or emailed and offered an appointment. Nathan, however, called me personally. Not only did he take the time to call, but he spent nearly an hour on the phone with me. He asked for details about my situation and then explained how the adoption process typically worked. My partner and I ended up meeting and retaining Nathan for our adoption shortly after. Throughout our entire experience, Nathan and the staff in his office treated us with complete respect. We were kept well informed throughout each step and Nathan was always responsive and followed up when needed. The process of adopting my daughter was a long one, but 6 months after she was born Nathan met us for court and I walked out as a parent, legally. Nathan answered our questions throughout this entire process and made something that could have been very stressful a very smooth and relatively painless process. Nathan was also completely upfront about his fees. They were completely reasonable and there were no surprises - what we were quoted originally is exactly what we were charged. I would happily recommend Nathan to anyone seeking legal services and know that my family will be working with him again in the future.
