Nicholas J Gottwald's Lawyer Endorsements
"I worked with Nick on a family law client of his who ended up getting charged with multiple felonies. I was only helping in an advisory capacity. Nick was outstanding in his representation of his client. He fought incredibly hard for his client and ultimately persuaded the prosecution that the charges were not appropriate, and Nick was successful in getting the prosecution to dismiss the criminal case entirely."
