Custody Modification

My biggest complaint was the lack of communication. The only time I spoke to Ms. Nichols regarding my case was at our initial consultation. The rest of the time it was via the paralegal. My daughters well being is extremely important to me which I why I chose this law office, it came highly recomm...ended. It was out of my budget but again, my daughters well being was my main concern. Upon meeting with Ms. Nichols she was very smart and seemed like she wanted to help. But, I never actually spoke to her again other than may a couple of e-mails. The modification was left unclear, not addressing the entire order specifically visitation and first right of refusal. In the future, if you are going to modify a custody order please make sure you address the entire order or you will end up with 2 orders like I have now. This just gave the non custodial parent more way to interpret the order as he saw fit. I would not recommend this attorney if your child's well being is at steak.

We apologize that you were not satisfied fully with your service. There are only two ways that Orders come about, either by agreement or the court's ruling. By agreement, the client is in control of what agreement results, if the court rules, the client loses control. It is common for clients to seek more face to face time with the attorney and we are pleased to meet more frequently with our clients; however, often the client prefers to communicate with the paralegals and support staff because their hourly rate is reduced and we aim to keep you within your allotted budget. As you mentioned emails, they are an affordable and efficient manner of communication.

Exceptional

Ms. Nichols was a superb attorney and God-sent, especially after previously hiring an attorney who ran off with my money. She was efficient and very informative regarding the possible outcome of my case. I was a client of hers for almost two years, before having to hire someone new because the jurisd...iction of my case had changed. Even after the transfer, I was able to communicate with her and she selflessly assisted with pointing me towards how to look for a board-certified attorney. She treats her clients with respect, and at no point do you feel as if she is not being honest or making choices without your consent. She allows for her clients to have full control over each step of the case. If you care about the well-being of your child and want to make sure your child(ren) are in good hands, Ms. Nichols is that person for you. I will always be appreciative of her professionalism and assistance during one of the most difficult times in my life. Thank you again, Ms. Nichols.

Thank you so much

Definitely one of the best attorneys I have ever had in El paso. Amy Nichols kept me well informed the entire time during my family case that I was going thru, instead of making discisons for me amy would always inform me of all of our options and what each result that option would have. Any time I w...ould contact Amy or her paralegal (Terri) they would always have the answers for me and if not they would respond to my questions that day. I would definitely recommend this attorney for any family matter. Amy and Terri thank you so much for all that you guys have done for me I can't thank you all enough.

BAD, not professional

She did not do anything on my case. She never read the documents I gave her and was not ready for the hearing. After the hearing, she went to talk to my still husband ignoring me. very expensive for a bad service.

Thank you for your feedback. The procedures related to legal matters are often confusing to the parties. Based on your opinion, I will make sure to communicate the process more effectively in the future.
