Posted by Haley | February 03, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Nick is the very best around, HANDS DOWN.

Nick was just outstanding when he worked with me on my case. He was SO nice, and he fully explained everything to me in detail that I needed to know. He's also very "real" about how the court process is going to go and he was pretty good at giving me an idea of what the judge was like to, ahead of ti...me. Which I believe is pretty important, personally. Hahaha VERY informative, and very respectful, nonjudgmental. And he seems to really truly care about each and every one of his clients. I would recommend Nick to anyone!! He is the absolute BEST lawyer around for miles and miles!!! Trust me!! And Nick, if YOU happen to read this one day..... THANK YOU so much once again!! You saved my life!!

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.
