The answer to Peace of Mind

I hired Brian in 2015 to work through my child custody case. As a single mother and independent woman, he has assisted in being a support and biggest peace of mind. I know Brian to be determined, trustworthy, and fair. He has been very approachable since day, listening to all of my concerns and wis...hes for my child. He guided me through the process and let me have a voice in the matter, rather than told me what to do like previous attorneys I had. He helped me protect and find the best possible outcome for my child. Even when I let feelings get in the way and tried to be over protective, he helped me find a common ground and keep the focus on what worked best for my son. I am still working with Brian, as my case is an ongoing scenario. He definitely made a difficult time a little easier and less stressful, which I greatly appreciate.

Brian is the best!

I hired Brian after a referral from a friend, to handle my divorce case. From day 1, I felt very comfortable with him, and he explained the process completely and thoroughly. Throughout my case, he was always available to answer my questions, he responded quickly and he was very straightforward. H...e is honest and will tell you if you’re expecting or asking for something that is unreasonable, by not giving false hope. He tells it like it is. I ended up getting the settlement I deserved without an issue. His assistant is also very helpful and responsive and was a great help through this difficult process. His rates are reasonable as well. I referred him to two other friends who are looking into divorce. I highly recommend Brian to anyone that is looking for a great family law attorney! You won’t be disappointed.

Highly Recommend!

For three years and counting, Brian Nigohosian has provided exceptional legal advice and counsel regarding my divorce and as conflicts have been continuing to arise post decree. He possesses every quality a client would be looking for when seeking legal help. Brian is professional, intimidating, wel...l respected, and his focus is always on what is in your best interest. When communicating with Brian, he has ALWAYS made himself available, even outside of office hours. Throughout the entire process, I have learned to trust Brian fully and completely, that he is always fair and honest with you, and I truly could not have gotten through my divorce without his guidance. Brian successfully navigated me through one of the most difficult times I have experienced so far and I am so thankful for what feels like a “new life” that he helped me obtain for my daughter and I.

Professional and Trustworthy

I had already been a year and a half into my divorce proceedings before I hired Mr. Nigohosian. My first attorney dragged my case out much longer than needed so he could collect additional funds from me. Once I hired Mr. Nigohosian, the process moved along quickly and he cleaned up the mess my prev...ious attorney had left. He also took the time to listen to all my needs and concerns and addressed each and everyone of them. I would highly recommend Brian Nigohosian. He will represent you the way you deserved to be represented and will not drag a case out just to collect money. Great lawyer! My biggest regret is not hiring him from the beginning.

post decree matter

My ex husband is very well respected attorney in Du Page County. I had a difficult time to find a lawyer in Du Page County whom will be willing to represent me. Mr. Nigohosian was recommended to me by my previous attorney whom did not want to represent me any longer for the obvious reason. Mr. Nigoho...sian did not hesitate to take may case and handle the matter with "white gloves" - delivering the best results i have ever expected. All my friends i recommended Mr. Nigohosian to, are very happy with his professionalism, knowledge and outcomes. Nothing better than have a knowledge that your lawyer cares about his client's best interest.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
