Nicci Hinderaker

I was referred to Nicci at a time when I needed help and was scared and didn't know where to turn. She was kind and down to earth and promised that if I held on and trusted her we would get through this and things would get better. She stood by my side and knew all the right things to ask and was r...eassuring. I was able to call and email her anytime I had questions or doubts and she and her team were very responsive. Here I am at the end of my journey and starting a new exciting one with my family and a great positive outlook on the future all thanks to Nicci.

Nicci was very honest and professional from our initial consultation and throughout our case. Our severance case was complex and involved multiple people and states. She quoted us related law and what would have to be proven in order to prevail. Nicci was very honest about the cost due to it being a... complex case. We knew it would not be an easy case to prevail, but with Nicci and her firms knowledge and direction we did in fact prevail. She was well prepared for all the hearings. She did a great job questioning all the witnesses. Not only is Nicci knowledgeable, honest, and professional but has a great personality also. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Nicci. We highly recommend her.

Nicci was recommended to me 4 years ago from a family member and other legal professionals in the Tucson area. She handled my case involving custody, divorce and domestic violence. From the minute we met she was understanding, caring and honest. Her knowledge and guidance helped me and my children fe...el protected during a time of full of immense stress, fear and uncertainty. She explained terms and processes so I could understand and make informed decisions, always offering her perspective and options. She treated me with dignity and respect when opposing counsel did anything but that on a regular basis. She was a trustworthy advocate who fought for me and my children with heart and tenacity for a great outcome. She conducted herself with integrity and professionalism in and out of the court room. I couldn’t have navigated this process without her. I am forever grateful.

We had a great experience with Nicci. We had a unique case that involved multiple states and other difficult factors, and she was recommended by a friend of a friend. From our initial consult, we knew that we had made the right choice! We felt immediate peace and had confidence in the route that we... were going to take. It was also nice to have a general estimate as to how much everything that we needed may end up costing. We also felt like Nicci and her staff (especially Erika) had genuine concern for our well-being and were really rooting for us. Their email and telephone communication kept us informed throughout the process. We were in very good hands and are so appreciative of the help and guidance that they provided!

I have worked with dozens of attorneys in my career so I have a pretty good idea of what a great attorney is like. When I started my divorce Nicole was recommended to me by another attorney specializing in contract law. My spouse had left the state, was hiding and refusing to accept service. Once ...she got an attorney the attorney also helped her avoid being served the divorce papers. Nicole's wisdom, experience and creativity got me through that very difficult time period. She knew how to deal with the uncooperative attorney and was able to finally get the papers served. She was very understanding of my frustrations and concerns and gave me great perspective on how to deal with it. Nicole has a very high level knowledge of family law in Arizona and she was able to provide invaluable advice on what to expect and what the law requires and allows. As we started negotiating a settlement Nicole was very understanding and supportive. Nicole also protected me from myself and several times during the settlement discussions made me think about what I was doing and if I really understood what I was offering. I appreciated her longer term perspective and concerns when I was getting caught up in the immediate emotion of the divorce. As the divorce progressed the opposing attorney was extremely uncooperative and uncommunicative. I was obviously frustrated and Nicole was able to deal with the situation and assure me things would work out. As we got towards the end Nicole knew exactly when to move to set a court date. It was amazing how the negotiations suddenly accelerated and then concluded. Nicole could sense when it was appropriate to make that move. Nicole was very understanding and patient with me. There were times it seemed that things weren't moving and Nicole was able to counsel and calm me which really helped me cope. Nicole is very concerned about providing great value for the client. Over the 8 months working with Nicole there were several times when she explained costs and how I might minimize my expense. She was always concerned about providing the best value to me. Nicole was very fair with me and she provided great value. She always was extremely productive and I never had any issues or concerns with her billing. As it looked like we might have to go to court I was extremely comfortable to have Nicole represent me in a hearing or trial. Nicole has a very professional demeanor, is respected by other attorneys and knows when to be tough. That gave me great confidence in negotiations because I knew Nicole would be representing me if it went before a Judge. I highly recommend Nicole in any family law situation and would not hesitate to seek her help or advice in the future.
