Update from my March 2016 review

Update, fall 2016: I ended up hiring Nathaniel to file for separate maintenance, and I am very happy that I did. Nathaniel truly worked for me and advocated for me. He made it easy to say, "Talk to my lawyer," because I knew that he would work for my best interests and those of my children. His co...mmunication was clear, as was that of his paralegal. He asked for things that I either didn't think of or was scared to ask for, showing me how these things were truly in the best interests of my family and my situation. I ended up with an even better result than I could've hoped for, and I credit that to Nathaniel's advocacy, to his practice of diffusing situations and talking reasonably and respectfully to my husband, and to his knowledge of how things should be and were likely to go. I am so glad that I hired Nathaniel, and I am truly grateful for his expertise and advocacy.

Great work

Nathaniel stepped in to help me get the necessary paperwork filled out and filed to create my LLC. He worked quickly and efficiently. I was very satisfied with his work. I will definitely recommend him to others.

Smart, Trustworthy & Solid Legal Advice

I worked with Nathaniel on two separate matters from my 2013 divorce on the recommendation of a lawyer friend. Nathaniel is extremely knowledgeable about Michigan law and the local family courts. Nathaniel reviewed my divorce judgment in order to expand my parenting time and provided me with solid ...advice that resulted in a huge "win" for me and my children. Nathaniel also responds quickly to emails and telephone calls. Overall, Nathaniel is a smart, effective lawyer and I really appreciate his professionalism as a lawyer.

Thank you for these kind words. When you came to me for advice, you were discouraged. We thoroughly discussed your situation and options, and we made a solid plan. Then, you followed through on the plan we made, and it worked beautifully. Now, you have a lot more time with your child than you thought possible. And you're getting a lot more child support, too! I'm elated for you.

Kaleefey Review

Nathaniel was hired to represent me in a criminal case in which I was charged with assault and defamed publicly. Nathaniel did an excellent job as my attorney, offering fantastic counseling, advise and listening to my statements. Nathaniel showed great integrity and sincerity through the time he was ...working with me. Both in person and behind the scene. Nathaniel helped me reach a desired resolution in the case. This is the first legal case I have ever been a part of and was unfamiliar, unsure of what to expect. I am greatful to have had Nathaniel as my defense attorney. I was very pleased to have Nathaniel working for me in this case, and I would strongly recommend him to others who need a strong and honest attorney working on their behalf.

Thank you very much for this review, and thank you for your cooperation throughout the case. The accusation against you was wrong, and we prevailed. This was a very challenging and rewarding criminal case. We wanted to avoid publicity and a criminal record. We worked behind the scenes with the Prosecutor, a psychologist, an investigator, and supporters to quietly resolve this matter. Best of all, your criminal record remains clean.

great help through divorce

Nathaniel helped guide me through a divorce and was a great help. He always kept me updated on what was going on. I could really tell that he was advocating for me. If I ever need legal services again, he would be the first person I would call.
