Michael J. Nichols

Michael is an experienced, brilliant, tenacious professional. Michael was persistent and innovative in challenging the executive order multiple times in our very difficult case. The net result yielded a very positive outcome. The outcome was better then we could have imagined. Michael is a joy to wo...rk with. Michael is very responsive and a very strong communicator. We hope to never never need legal representation in the future. If we do, only Michael J. Nichols will be called. Get the best.

Thank you!

I am an international student that is pursuing my graduate level degrees here. Mike is very professional and friendly. He went through all the details with me when we first met, which gave me the confidence and good faith that I think he can definitely helped me. Later, we met several times to follow... up and he made a lot of good suggestions in terms of how to mitigate the negative impact on my records. The result turned out to be very satisfactory. I think he really put himself into my shoes and understand my concerns since we can’t afford any bad records. Highly recommended!

Felt like we were his only client

Late on a Friday afternoon we had an issue with our son's school that was not being handled properly and we contacted the Nichols Law Firm. Even though Mr Nichols was out of town working on a large, important case, he stayed in contact with us over the weekend. We had a follow up meeting with the sch...ool on Monday morning and Mr Nichols made sure we had all the information we needed to go in informed and prepared. He contacted us several times over the weekend to answer our questions and give us pointers on what to expect. This was our first encounter with the school where we thought we needed to be protected. We did not know what to expect, until we talked to Mr Nichols and his law firm. Even though we were new clients and our issue wasn't as big of a deal as the case he was currently on, we felt like we were his only focus and felt well supported.

Heavyweight Champion of the Court Room

I retained Mike Nichols and the Nichols law firm for an OWI/traffic violation incident that happened to me in late 2017. After reviewing Mike’s website and meeting with him for a consultation, I decided to hire him to represent me in the matter. Mike is incredibly knowledgeable about the law, police ...procedures and the science involved with these types of cases. The end result was better than I thought I could hope for. Mike recognized that there were issues with how the field tests were administered and problems with the PBT. As a result, the warrant was denied as there was insufficient evidence to support a conviction and my license was reinstated. Mike even went the extra mile to get the speeding ticket portion reduced to a small fine and no points on my license! The outcome was a huge weight off my chest and I cannot thank Mike or his team at the Nichols law firm enough. I definitely have friends and co-workers experiencing similar legal issues right now and their stories make me so relieved to have chosen to work with Mike. Most importantly, in my opinion, is how frustrated they are by the lack of communication that they have with their attorneys. Mike and the Nichols law firm communicated with me constantly. Within a few days of getting anything from the court in the mail, I would have an envelope from Mike’s office with another copy of the document along with a letter explaining what it was and how it fit into my case. Even if we had already discussed these things or if I had been told to expect them, that extra step to keep me in the loop was so helpful and it made me feel like I had a little bit of control back in my life. I would absolutely recommend Mike and the Nichols law firm to anyone experiencing a similar legal problem. Hiring Mike was the best possible decision I could have made given the circumstances. At the very least, take a look at his website. Mike has so much helpful information available. It is a great place to start understanding what is happening to you. If that does not convince you, meet with a few other attorneys and then schedule a consultation with Mike and I think the difference will be obvious. Thanks again Mike!

Mike Nichols & his staff are amazing!

I drive a work vehicle, hold a CDL and was facing an OWI with high BAC. During my first conversation with Mike he asked me what the ideal outcome of my case would be and I told him keeping my job and CDL. Mike and his amazing staff were able to make this happen. Throughout my case Mike went above and... beyond by checking in to see how I was doing, making it clear that he cared. In addition, Mike and his staff did a wonderful job of keeping me updated on how things were progressing with my case and I would definitely recommend Nichols Law Firm to anyone facing an OWI charge.
