Great help

Gordon helped me through my divorce and was extremely informative through the entire process. He was responsive if I had questions or concerns and the costs were very transparent and fair. I would recommend Gordon to anyone going through a divorce or with questions about what may happen if they decid...e to progress.

Gordon was great!

I had a 100% positive experience working with Gordon as my divorce attorney. Gordon is respected in the law community and was able to help me navigate a divorce and legal proceedings with minimal stress, cost, and disruption to my life. Gordon is a great combination of assertive, knowledgeable, res...ponsive and accessible. For the services he provides he offers a great value as well. He did a fantastic job representing me throughout the entire time he worked on my case- I would highly recommend Gordon Nelson to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

I have a great lawyer.

Mr. Nelson was able to help me through one of the hardest times in my entire life...a very emotionally draining divorce...and he helped me set up my qdro as well. It's hard to know which way to turn when you finally realize you need to get a divorce and I am so grateful for the help I received and co...ntinue to receive from Gordon! I'm much better off now.

Great help and Professional

I was extremely pleased with the professionalism of the staff at Taradash & associates. I was a little hesitant at first.....to proceed with an online divorce.Not truly believing in the convenience and price of it all. To my surprise the firm delivered above my expectations. Everything outlined on t...heir website was followed without flaw. If I had questions...they were answered professionally and timely. The entire process was quick. When my lawyer (Gordon Nelson) met with me in court...I was assured it would be quick. We were in court less than 5 minutes! Great firm! I highly recommend them!
