Truly Caring Lawyer

Ms. Mitchell represented me in a long legal process, that included several different facets of my case involving medical/nursing licensing, and resulting disciplinary action from the Ohio Nursing Board. Ms. Mitchell is absolutely qualified, experienced, skilled and competent in this area of law (Hea...lth Care Law/License Defense), but she is also truly compassionate, caring, and patient in dealing with the overwhelming situation I was in, and all of the emotional stress the case had put upon me. She is quite prompt in returning calls, answering questions, and always expeditious in filing all the legal motions, orders, etc. Since I have had her representation, I have felt confident in her abilities as a lawyer (recommendations, knowledge, punctuality etc), and honestly believe she has my best interests as her top priority. It is obvious that she has an abundance of experience in the way that she deals with opposing parties, she has networked and I feel she knows exactly how to ethically and accurately handle any of my legal issues.

Best experience with an Attorney I've ever had!

Melissa has been my attorney for over a year now as I work with the Ohio Board of Nursing In a consent agreement to have my RN license reinstated, following suspension and discipline on drug related charges. From the first phone consultation Melissa has provided empathetic and comprehensive guidance ...through some of the most harrowing and challenging circumstances of my Life. She has represented me passionately, aggressively, and ethically; and helped me find my Footing and remain positive and hopeful when I was anything but. Melissa has always taken confusing and seemingly excessive Legal jargon and brought it to a level I could clearly understand to make The best decisions for my future. Melissa expedited processes when able and helped me towards results I could accept. She responds to all my Needs, questions, and concerns with patience and in a very timely Manner. I genuinely feel like I am being represented by family or a dear friend when working with Melissa. I'm also incredibly grateful for her ethical and affordable rates for seeing me through my consent agreement. So many attorneys itemize every email and phone call and I've been blessed to be working with an attorney that has been up front, honest, and affordable! She has been compassionate and validating of my emotional struggles during this time And treating me with dignity and respect. Melissa's expertise is helping me in the fight to regain my nursing career and encourages me on my continued sobriety and making the next right choice to ensure I am Return to nursing as a safe and rehabilitated professional. I would hire her for anyone of my Loved ones and would absolutely highly recommend Melissa Mitchell.

Beyond satisfied

Ms. Melissa Mitchell went above and beyond with the flat fee services she provided for my health care (nursing licensure) related case. She was always prompt to respond to all of my inquiries, all documents were prepared professionally and in a timely manner, and she was honest and realistic with he...r recommendations, easily gaining my confidence. Lastly, I was very pleasantly surprised with the services I received for a very reasonable fee, and the attention I was given made me feel as if I was her only client, seeing my case to through to completion. I highly recommend Ms. Melissa Mitchell.

Health care

Melissa is very quick in replies and very understanding. Typically if a lawyer is needed it is during a stressful time when your mind isn't always working as it should... Melissa cares not only about your case but also about you personally. She has lead me to the renstatement of my nursing license f...rom a conviction related suspension. This has been almost a two year process and we are a few months away from ending this horrible chapter in my life. I would recommend her a thousand times over.
