Nickolas Gregory Calkins

Nick represented me on a PPO case against my boyfriend's ex-wife. She tried everything to get the PPO terminated, but thankfully with Nick by my side, we won without question in court!! Nick was everything I was looking for in a lawyer; he investigated every angle, he is very sharp, knowledgable, cal...m, and collected. He was caring and compassionate towards me, but the opposite towards the other side. I recommend him 100% for any legal case you might have.

I retained Nick for an OWI-high bac charge this past August. As someone who has never even had a parking ticket before, this was my first time ever having to retain legal counsel. I was scared/worried, ignorant, etc. Nick was very professional, knowledgeable, tactical and sincere. Throughout the ent...ire process Nick made sure I understood what was going on, and that I was comfortable. On the day of jury selection, I had a tough choice to make where I ended up taking a plea deal of OWVI. Beforehand, Nick sat down with me for over an hour (!), and we went through every scenario I was facing. I was very upset the entire time, but he was patient with me, and never once tried to sway my choice one direction or the other. Nick truly cared about my well- being even outside of the charges I was facing, and he will care about yours as well. He takes his job and his clients lives very seriously. Although I personally decided to take a plea for a number of reasons, I believe Nick would have done very well for me in trial. I do not plan to be in any kind of legal trouble again, but if I were, or someone I knew was, I would retain/ recommend him again.

I hired Nick for my case regarding my son's father with custody, parenting time and child support. He surpassed my expectations as a lawyer and got me everything I wanted and then some. He was very accommodating to my schedule with meeting me outside of my work hours. I have had to hire Nick now twic...e, and would again if need be. He is a very trust worthy and honest lawyer and would strongly recommend him to anyone who is in need of a lawyer.

As with many, this was my first experience hiring a lawyer. I was facing a DUI with an over intox. Of course I was both and stressed and embarrassed. Nick made me feel comfortable, was great at communicating and letting me know what to expect. He helped prepare me for my pretrial conference by pro...actively recommending classes that may be required but were also beneficial. My pretrial went better than I ever expected and my charges were reduced to an OWVI. My sentencing again proved what great counsel Nick was as I received no probation and the judge was satisfied with what Nick had recommended for classes. While this is not something I would ever want to go through again, Nick made it a pleasant and educational experience. Nick may be a younger lawyer with a bit less experience than some, but his execution and advice was flawless. I would recommend him to anyone who is going through a difficult time and needs legal counsel.
