This guy knows what he's doing

I had Ian represent me for a traffic citation. The trial was set for 3 o clock. I walked in the courthouse at 2:50. Ian and the State Trooper were already discussing the case. The three of us talked very briefly and my charge was dismissed, no points, no fees, not even a trial. I was out of the court...house before my trial was set to start. Thank you for your hard work Ian.

Fantastic Service!

I got my first ticket ever in Madison County, and I was very worried about getting points on my license or having to attend traffic school. Mr. Nesbeth was very attentive throughout the whole process and was available if I had any questions regarding my case, whether he was busy in court or meeting w...ith a potential client, he always made sure to reach out to me within a reasonable amount of time. My case was DISMISSED!! and all I had to do was pay the court fee cost. No points and no traffic school. Ian is incredible!!!

Would not reccommend to anyone!

I had nothing but issues with Mr. Nesbeth.He would rarely return my phone calls and on one occasion he told me ' Im busy, I can't handle this right now' and hung up. When i was scheduled for phone conferences, he would never call...I would end up speaking to his assistant days later. The outcome of... my case was worse that if I would have just handles things myself. i would recommend him to NO ONE

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
