Practice Areas

Criminal Defense 33%

All areas of criminal law including, but not limited to felony, misdemeanor, traffic, drug cases, driving on a suspended or revoked license, retail theft and other theft offenses, domestic offenses, other violent offenses, robbery, home invasion, etc.

33%
DUI and DWI 33%

There are two main aspects to any DUI case: the suspension of your license and the criminal charge itself. I start with fighting the suspension because it goes into effect on the 46th after you are notified of the suspension, which is usually the day you were arrested. After the suspension issue is resolved, I look at every possible way to attack your case and the evidence against you. From when the police officer first observes you to the moment you bond out I search for all possible angles.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Top notch attorney

Mark took the time to really listen to my concerns before rushing in with a quick solution which had been my experience with other attorneys. It meant so much to me that he followed my consult with emails that provided more supportive information that I was seeking as well. Mark went the extra mile... in his efforts to help and I hired him for that reason. If you are looking for a top notch attorney that truly cares for his clients, you need look no further.

Positive review

Mr. Nickel has helped me navigate several legal situations. In every case, I found him to be strait-forward, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. I have never had the impression that he was trying to unnecessarily drag out my cases for his benefit. Additionally, I have found his charges reasonable and jus...tified. I will continue to use Mr. Nickel and would recommend him without question.

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.
