10 years…

This is the worse law firm ever! I was involved in a car accident when I was 8yrs old, September 13, 2013 to be exact. I had to wait until I turned 18yrs old to receive my settlement. My grandmother was told that I would receive $12,500. I picked up my check today and it was $3,896.05 SMH this is rid...iculous!! You guys should be ashamed. And then you asked me to do a review for a gift card. Well here it is. You guys think because I’m 18yrs old that $3800 is sufficient. I am an honor roll student, working since age 16 and promoted to manager last week. I know my worth! The attorney fees was more than the check I received.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Poor service

After initial consultation I was told I'd get responses to my case upon submitting a written summary of my claim, a timeline, and supporting documents. After fulfilling this request and not receiving a response, I called to discuss my case. I left a message with the receptionist and at an alternate c...ontact number. I didn't receive a return call so I sent an email inquiry. I received a return email saying I'd get a call by a certain date to discuss the case but didn't get a call. I then sent another email request for a status update and after more than two weeks, have yet to receive a response. It's been seven weeks since the initial consultation and I'm no further with my case than when I started.

Justice for "the little guy"

We hired the Nielsen Law firm for our personal injury case. His "Team" worked vigorously to make sure the truth prevailed. Their passion and professionalism towered the courtroom as they paraded witnesses and documentation to support my case. Eric is not afraid to ask questions, and he does a lot. Hi...s compassion and pillar of strength is not to be ignored. he is NOT AFRAID TO GO TO TRAIL..... I would highly recommend him and will use him again if need be.

"I had the privilege of working for Eric for several years. He is truly passionate about obtaining results for his clients and will never back down from a challenge. He is a knowledgeable and effective advocate in the courtroom and his numerous large verdicts reflect his ability to present and explain any case in a way a jury can understand and relate to. I highly recommend him."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Watched Eric Nielsen and his law partner S.K. "Sam" Mukerji trying a brain injury case in Harris County. Eric did the opening statement, which was the portion of the trial I watched. Very competent trial lawyer, I was genuinely impressed."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
