Posted by SOMEONE IMPORTANT | September 13, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Want to be completely in the dark uninformed

This man is taking the life of my child as a joke. He has no time (after getting your money) for any clients at all. He will not ever call you back and neither will his associate. He has lied both to me and his client he was hired for and tell you things are fine than no show and postpone every heari...ng because he’s too busy. Please hear my advise the people in jail recommend him highly so do not be fooled. I hope this gets posted for families to not have to go through what we are going through.

Poor excuse for a human being.

He is just as manipulative and deceitful as the people he represents. He lies, has illicit relationships with judges.

Posted by Corey Anne | February 26, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Mr. Nolan gives you honest representation!

Mr. Nolan represented me in a trial case that I was innocent in, and he did the tedious work and representation to prove that I was to the Judge. He also kept me in a calm state that he was going to finish the trial with a Not Guilty verdict...And he found that Justice for me. I can't thank him enoug...h for his time, work and expertise! I feel he is the best Attorney in West Michigan. He is honest, hardworking and an expert attorney. Thank you kindly, Corey

My first arrest in my life. I am 68 years old.

Terry Nolan helped me out in a case in Lake County. I was not sure what to expect but Mr. Nolan met and went above my expectations. Very up front I can't THANK him enough. He treated me with utmost respect. I would recommend him to anybody that is how caring he is. Thank you Mr. Nolan. He too...k care of the whole procedure and the outcome was very good.

Relationship: Friend

"I wholeheartedly endorse Terry as your next attorney. Having been a prosecutor for 12 years and also practiced criminal defense, I'm well aware that his accomplishments and legal skills are unmatched by any other lawyer in West Michigan, and probably in the entire state. His sheer number of victories at trial are astounding and simply unheard of. Aside from his trial skills, he is personable, prompt, and strives to do the best job for each and every one of his clients. His strong work ethic and compassion for the desires of his clients are exactly what every person seeking legal counsel should look for. I have met and worked with literally hundreds of other lawyers throughout Michigan and I can say without hesitation, Terry Nolan is absolutely the best there is."
