I’ve never met a honest lawyer until STAGG!!!

Nicole Stagg had represented my father prior to me needing any kind of legal service. Although, I wouldn’t agree with some of the things my father was attempting to do, I would say he ALWAYS showed confidence and tranquility about his legal fates AND spoke highly of Stagg. I remember always hearing ...him say, “I NEVER met a honest lawyer, until Nicole Stagg”. Later in life, I got the opportunity to witness just what my father meant about lawyers AND honesty. That being said, I’ve hired Nicole Stagg to handle two legal matters for me. I’ll just say this, I DONT WRITE REVIEWS, But I’ll write Nicole Stagg one. She’s a lifesaver!!! AS LONG AS I CAN AFFORD COUNSEL, She will ALWAYS be my lawyer. Character goes a Long way and I haven’t seen a lawyer who could match Nicole Stagg I am Mychael & I approve this review, so you know I’m not spam.... Stagg is the truth!!!!

Her Defense is Exemplary!

I filed for a Nondisclosure for a ClassB Misdemeanor and was deeply afraid that it would not be granted because of a separate, unrelated offense. R. Nicole was very honest, empathetic, and continuously argued on my behalf until the Nondisclosure was granted. This has helped me bring closure and peac...e in my life as I begin a new chapter. I can not express how much I am thankful for her services.

Professional and Kind

Ms. Stagg was both kind and very professional. She handled my accident case with a lot of care. She was able to get me a great result and felt comforted through the entire process.

Does not care about her clients

My experience with this lawyer was terrible. I was seeking a divorce from my ex, a protection order was in place against my ex due to physical abuse. I was in an extremely delicate state and this lawyer was not compassionate. She did not care about me nor my circumstances. I had to contact her for... progress and to keep the momentum. She kept forgetting that the restraining order was in place and asking me to contact my ex. The documentation presented to me would always contain many mistakes, as bad as my kids' name being missing in certain paragraphs. Also, she did not fight for me, she did not care. I was just a number, and this was just a cookie-cutter process for her. I truly regret utilizing her services. None of the documentation was explained to me. She, my ex's lawyer and the mediator, that was utilized, were all in cahoots. I felt that I was pressured to agree to certain stipulations that I should not have agreed to. I am worse off than I was before the divorce.

  • 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.
