Very Helpful

I am kinda new to Dayton, so when I needed a lawyer I just pulled up Lawyers in Dayton, I called a few, but John was the first to even take my phone call. He wasn't the kind of lawyer I needed he said, BUT he gave me the name of a lawyer that was GREAT. In my book that alone made me have great respec...t for him. Thank you for everything John! Deb W

Awesome Disability Firm!

Mr. Nicholson won my disability case. I had been trying to get benefits for over 10 years now and have tried with 2 prior attorneys. My fibromyalgia is to the point where I could no longer watch my grandson. I just felt real comfortable with Mr. Nicholson and he always called me back when I left mes...sages. I have already referred my brother to him after he had his stroke. My brother is getting the same attention that I received. You can't go wrong with this firm.

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.
