Highly recommend!

Nick was honest and straight forward. I have a small claims court date approaching and Nick sited exactly What hat I needed to do prepare myself , given I have zero self representation experience. I went from feeling overtly anxious to feeling equipped and eager to move forward in an erroneous and b...aseless court case. Thank you Nick!

Knowledgeable, and ethical.

I had the opportunity to consult with Nick on a minor real-estate issue and he responded to my questions in an honest and straightforward way and did not make up any complexities to encourage an engagement. If I needed an attorney I would definitely engage him.

Knowledgeable, thoughtful, and conscientous attorney

I reached out to Mr. Weiss's office about a legal concern and scheduled a free phone consultation for the following day. Mr. Weiss called me on time and very thoroughly and honestly explained the details of my case and how the various aspects of the law applied. He answered all my questions thoughtfu...lly and displayed thorough knowledge of relevant statutes. Even though he couldn't take my case (due to my needing to file in a different jurisdiction), he did guide me on multiple options for how to proceed. He clearly cares about getting justice for his clients and I would recommend him highly to anyone who needs representation in Ohio.

Worst Attorney

This guy is the worst attorney in Cleveland. Assured me every step of the way that we were in good shape, meanwhile he is having phone conference with opposing council and judge that we are settling. Never tells me about email he sent to opposing council or phone conference with judge. Then there is ...another phone conference that he doesn’t tell me what it is for. It’s for enforcement of agreement I am unaware of. He still assures me that at our court date that we will prevail. Not only do we lose it costs me another $4,500 in opposing legal fees. This guy is poor at his job and a poor communicator.

I'm happy to respond to this review. Our firm maintains a high level of communication with all clients. We utilize a firm management system to put all client communications in one location, and ensure that clients are made aware of all aspects of their case, including a choice to break an enforceable settlement agreement that was already agreed to.

Question about postnuptial agreements

Nicholas was very knowledgeable about current legislations and clearly explained the current situation with them and how they affected my current situation. Very helpful!

"I have worked with Nicholas since we were both in law school.

He is also a good sounding board for certain legal arguments as we both see different sides to the same coin."

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.
