Excellent Lawyer, very supportive and an amazing person !

I had a very nice experience with Mr.Hansen. I hired him when I got into trouble with a traffic violation incident. Being a foreign national and being unacquainted with the USA law system I was in a lot of stress. When I first met Mr. Hansen it was a huge relief talking to him. He was extremely profe...ssional and helpful throughout the process. He was always very prompt in replying and answered all my questions/doubts patiently. He kept me updated with the case and finally got it dismissed. I would very much recommend him to anyone seeking help in the area of his expertise. After coming to the States, I have personally never met a more humble and caring person than Mr. Hansen. He definitely deserves more than 5 stars !!

Prompt, excellent communications, and honest counselor

I was referred to Mr. Nathan Hansen from a colleague of his who was not able to help me at the time. Mr. Hansen was prompt, thorough, and expeditious with his care and communications. He is a skillful and knowledgeable counselor that was able to navigate my needs in Larimer county. I would not hesita...te to recommend or refer his services to anyone seeking his professional services.

Highly Recommend

My experience with Nathan was excellent. He was very open to communication and kept me up to date throughout the entire process. He also was very realistic with the expectations for my verdict; he was very hands on with my case, but did not let me be too optimistic to where I would be disappointed or... confused with the outcome. I had a very positive experience with Nathan representing me in my DUID charge and would highly recommend him.

Nathan Hanse

I am 100% aware that I have given Mr. Hansen a 5 Star/Excellent rating. Nathan Hansen was and still is, after the case has been dismissed, one of the most caring and supportive people (attorney). We had never experienced a problem with the "law" and Mr. Hansen kept us informed and returned our calls ...in a very timely manner...giving up peace of mind throughout this horrible ordeal. I would recommend that you contact Mr. Hansen if you are ever in need of a defense attorney.

Avvo Rating

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.
