Great choice

I was completely satisfied with my experience with Nick. I'm not from the East Lansing area, so choosing him to represent me was a great idea. He was very familiar with the people at the court, which really helps anyone's case. He was very organized and always stayed in contact with me via email lett...ing me know what was going on. He was able to get me an outcome that I never thought I would end up getting and I was very pleased and thankful for that! I would highly recommend Nick to anyone who needs representation.

Personable, knowledgeable, great legal strategy. Outstanding lawyer!

I was referred to Nick Calkins by an acquaintance, and I will forever be grateful that I was. Throughout my entire legal process, I never once felt out of the loop or confused about the next step. Every course of action available was explained in great detail, so I always felt comfortable in the deci...sions we were making. Nick was very meticulous, responsive, and tirelessly worked to achieve the best outcome in my case. He would be an excellent choice for any criminal matter, and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Excellent Choice for Criminal Matter

A colleague recommended Nick Calkins for a criminal matter in 54B District Court. I met with Nick and he was fully prepared and developed a strategy for addressing the problem. He kept me in the loop, was very responsive to calls of emails, and treated me with the utmost respect, making my experienc...e with the legal system as pain-free as possible. He met me at the court on the day of my appearance and negotiated a successful result with the prosecutor. Overall, Nick did an excellent job representing my interests and making sure I was satisfied with the result.

Remarkable

From the first meeting, Nick was a great lawyer. Very organized, and had all facts, options, risks, and rewards all outlined and easy to understand. I never felt like i was wondering what was going on while Nick was on my case, he always kept me informed with recent updates and actions. He is very pe...rsonable, and will be persistent engaged in his work until the case is settled. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great lawyer at a very fair price. I am confident that he will make the best out of your situation, as he did mine.
