Helping You Through A Difficult Life Event - Divorce

Brian was professional, efficient and gave great guidance through a very difficult time to help me navigate the divorce my wife asked for. Wife's lawyer wasn't doing much since we were trying to complete a no contest divorce and there was little money in it for her lawyer. The process was dragging ...on and Brian knew I had health issues I was also trying to navigate in addition to the divorce, so Brian took charge and put the documentation together to get the divorce completed and I could focus on my health. Brian also was direct in sharing what expectations I should have during the divorce process so that I would understand what was realistic in the settlement. Overall, my experience was very positive and I would recommend his services to others.

Respectful, Respected, Efficient, Experienced, and full of Integrity

Family law is never a good experience. Finding the right attorney is the most important decision you will make in this situation. Brian is the right choice, and I am so thankful he was recommended to me for my divorce. If you are currently looking for an attorney and reading these reviews, stop, a...nd call Brian's office and set up a consultation. He is honest, forthcoming and realistic - which are the most important traits to have in a lawyer as you go through this extremely emotional experience. His billing reflects his character and is fair, transparent and honest - that alone is a reason to hire him, but his experience and the respect he has rightfully earned in the courtroom is not something you will see on the invoice, but is the most valuable benefit you will receive by working with him through your litigation. Call him, thank me later.

Simply the best!

I will only say this once and never change my mind! After reading a couple negative reviews regarding Brian Nigohosian and his ability to represent clients I am disgusted at the immaturity of those seeking counsel with Brian! Brian called me on New Year's Day to get some preliminary information fro...m me. (who does that on a holiday?) From then on, he moved quickly and professionally and helped me navigate my divorce. I had a million questions and comments and Brian kept me on track and reminded me that he would handle everything and he did! I'd also like to say that his staff (Brenna) answered all my questions in a timely manner and professionally. If you want a fair and honest attorney to represent you, Brian and his firm are your answer! Hands down, the best!

Excellent Attorney

Brian was referred to me by a family member. Throughout my nearly 14 month divorce process, Brian kept me focused on the most relevant issues. He was consistently honest, thorough, and efficient. He was generous with his time, and had very reasonable rates. I was very satisfied with the outcome, ...in large part due to his role in the process. The divorce process is emotionally and mentally exhausting - having Brian on my side helped make the process as smooth as possible.

Worth every penny!

Mr. Nigohosian was referred to me by an attorney that used him in his own divorce case. I was told that Mr. Nigohosian was excellent at his job. He proved to be that and more! Mr. Nigohosian was presented with multiple cases and problems as a result of my divorce case. He was able to explain the prob...lem, the options, his recommendations and finally the game plan. When we did have a trial due to oppositions inability to agree, Mr. Nigohosian played out the game plan he presented to me perfectly ultimately getting me everything I wanted. Divorce is very difficult but Mr. Nigohosian made it much easier with his very clear understanding of the process! I'm very satisfied with all the services Mr. Nigohosian and his Law firm provided me! I highly recommend Mr. Brian Nigohosian!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
