Smart, clever and compassionate
Bo helped my husband and I obtain custody of a distant relative (9 year old child) who was the victim of child abuse. He understood the law as it applied to our situation, and guided us through a complex system of Family Courts and Family Violence Courts. Bo was committed to this child as if she were...

Child custody battle
Bo NIchols is a top notch lawyer who went to bat for me and my two children. When things got ruff he stayed the course even when I was really nervous in the midst of the storm. He knows his business. My experience with him was very well. My outcome came up roses.
"Bo knows Family Law, alright! I got to witness his expertise and superb trial skills firsthand as a student at the Family Law Trial Institute, held annually in Houston. Bo is truly a dynamic and passionate attorney, who's energy is palpable. I refer all Texas Family Law cases to him-- he's that good. I wholeheartedly endorse John "Bo" Nichols. He's an excellent attorney and a nice person as well."
"I have known Bo Nichols for the better part of a decade and I can say without hesitation that he is an exceptional lawyer. He takes time with each legal issue, no matter how small and always gets the job done. On numerous occasions, I have called upon him to offer insight to a difficult legal matter. He always has THE answer. If I ever need the services of a family lawyer, he is the only one I trust."
