James Patrick Nelson

I am very happy with the legal services provided by Mr.Nelson and he was very reasonable with the cost. Thank you for making such a difficult process a little easier

Pat has provided guidance and consultation for multiple motions that have been filed in regards to the support of my children. He has the ability to remove emotion and get the parties to solutions. I am grateful for his knowledge and guidance for the 20 times that I have been called back to court since my divorce.

Pat did a great job for me. He was very responsive, he explained everything to me in a knowing yet unassuming manner. Very easy and pleasant to work with.

Pat was very responsive and helped find a satisfactory resolution to my divorce in only a month. He listened to what I wanted and needed and took it into consideration but also counseled me and gave a lot of thought to what would be best for me. He made a painful process flow smoothly and quickly and with professional sensitivity. It was very comforting to feel like I had a true ally looking out for my best interests.

James Nelson did represent me during my divorce proceedings and he did an outstanding job. His advice and his wide range of knowledge helped putting this matter to a fast end in a very efficient manner. I would hire him anytime again to assist with my legal proceedings.

James Patrick Nelson has been a great pillar of support and guidance for a stressful time in the life of a family man facing the reality of divorce. I am extremely happy in the professional manner in which my case was handled, and the excellent demeanor in which "Pat" communicated with me and the plaintiff (attorney), reaching an agreeable settlement that benefited both me and my ex-wife, for the overall benefit of the children and each of us as parents. James Patrick Nelson's gregarious contact with me, personal counsel, responsiveness and knowledge, and most importantly, honesty and integrity, helped me through this difficulty in a rather gregarious and peaceful means with excellent outcomes, and a win-win situation. What initially seemed like the most overwhelming episode in one's life, J. P. Nelson helped me through this process with confidence and success. He handled this case and represented me flawlessly toward an agreeable and successful divorce, in a short period of time. His professional advice is second to none, as he carefully considers all aspects of family and divorce law, and provides advice to benefit his client, as he did for me. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Attorney James Patrick Nelson to anyone who is facing a legal family challenge in his or her life. Thank you for representing me in this legal matter, in resolution toward a swift and amicable divorce for the benefit of the entire family.

Pat handled the case efficiently. At the final court date, he stated that I had a balance credit on my account and that he would go back to the office later that day and mail me the final paperwork and cut me a check. I received the paperwork within one week but no check. So, I patiently waited three weeks and then emailed him. To which, he responded by saying he would email me my statement the next week. The next week goes by, still no email or check. I reached out to remind him he said I would receive a statement. Later that day, I received a statement that stated I owed $400+ dollars. When I reviewed the statement, I found duplicate entries for the same dates (double charges) and some charges for dates not even listed as service dates at the top of the statement. In short, either he thought I would cut a check without looking at the bill or he didn't look at it before he sent it to me. I then went back to review a previous statement to discover he charged an hourly rate that was different than the fee agreement I signed. Ironically, the first statement showed a higher fee than the second statement. I contacted him. His response was he knew he noticed he was having software billing issues and that he would correct it this weekend. He also stated that he raised his hourly fee (not sure why the first statement should a higher rate than the second...this would be the case if one lowered his fee). Long story short, another email and call to him...still waiting for the statement and the check almost 8 weeks since the close of the case. Again, Pat walked me through the process and kept me in informed along the way with the exception of transparent billing practices.
