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.

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!

From scared and unsure to control -- a great help.

Mr. Nelson helped me when my marriage fell apart. At the time I was having a hard time understanding everything that was happening. He worked with me practically everyday when the case first started until we got everything under control. He did a great job anticipating issues and keeping me inform...ed of developments. I went from feeling confused and out of control to feeling like I had everything under control and knew what we were trying to do and why. I have to say I was terrified of all of the uncertainty when I first called his firm. He and the other lawyers helped me get things under control quickly and the whole case was done pretty quickly. I highly recommend him and his law firm.

Gordon Nelson's review

Mr. Nelson was very responsive. He was clear on options and I felt he had my best interest at hand. Worked with me on payments. Was aggressive in handling my divorce against my wife. As a man this felt great. Was always busy in the day in court, but followed up in the evening with emails and ma...de calls and returned calls( usually 24 to 48 hours).
