Nelissa Danelle Milfeld

Nelissa is an extraordinary attorney with professional experience that was absolutely critical in defending our case. She was extremely prepared at all times with facts, data and evidence that the opposing side simply could not match. She truly cared about the case and getting a just a fair resu...lt for us as people, not just clients. She is extremely well regarded by her peers and is highly effective.

I was fortunate to have hired her when she started at Dolan + Zimmerman because my past poor decisions resulted in my case having circumstances which easily justified being given the maximum possible sentence. From day one Nelissa’s knowledge of the law and excellent ability to communicate the situat...ion enabled me to start different mitigation actions. During this time of uncertainty I was scared and had many questions. Nelissa would always respond quickly to email messages and would answer her phone. Nelissa provided encouragement and motivation for performing mitigation actions. Having seen hundreds of cases similar to mine as a public defender and knowing many people in the legal system coupled with her new career was advantageous. This allowed her to focus more of her time and resources on my case. My therapist stated when talking with Nelissa she felt Nelissa cares about the well being and rehabilitation of her clients as apposed to a lawyer just doing the day to day. For this alone I highly recommend Nelissa! Given the circumstance of my case I think I got the best possible sentencing.
