Great Lawyer Experience

I was absolutely pleased with the professional, thorough and personalized service that Nicole and her staff provided throughout my entire divorce process. She was always readily available and responsive to my questions, and provided focused and sound advice. Nicole gave great insight on every step o...f the process so that I was comfortable knowing what to expect at each stage. All of her recommendations and suggestions ended up being right on target. My end result was essentially what I had sought originally at the beginning of the process. I would unhesitatingly recommend Nicole to anyone forced to go through a similar ordeal.

2018 Divorce

Referred by a friend who Hired Nicole Lasiter in early 2000’s. Grateful for a Experienced Attorney who was looking out for my Best Interest Long Term. It can be Scary when you’ve never had to be involved in a situation like Divorce. Nicole was very Kind and I was able to get in communication wit...h her as needed through her Assitant Dina. As a client we also need to make sure we are on top of our information to provide to the Attorney’s As needed to help with our persoanl situation. My Budget was tight and we were able to settle in a ADR without going to trial. Highly Recommended

Divorce

Nicole Lasiter did an excellent job with my recent divorce. Her vast knowledge of the law always kept us one step ahead of the next hurdle my husband kept presenting and there were many.

great attorney!

Nicole is fantastic. She fully understands and knows the law. The only time she needed to look something up, was because it was from an out of state case. I have used multiple lawyers in the past, and she ranks above the rest. Nicole handled the "other side's" difficult attorney with professional...ism no matter how difficult and irrational they could be. (and trust me, they were!) She is kind, has a no-nonsense approach to the situation, and strives to make her client feel safe and comfortable regardless the situation. Nicole helped me get much more than I was even originally asking for in my custody case. She flawlessly protected me when writing agreements with my ex. I would and will use Nicole again in the future! thank you so much Nicole!

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.
