Professional, Proficient, & Hard-Working

Brief back story regarding my custody case: I was issued in a previous state, sole, legal, decision-making of my child, prior to moving to the state of NV. After living in NV for over a year, I realized through unnecessary legal debate in the previous state, that I needed an experienced attorney to ...handle moving jurisdiction here. I was referred to Mr. Friedman by a reputable family law firm in the valley, which I was financially unable to retain. I was on a time crunch & in desperate need of good legal representation to present my case where state jurisdiction was in question. My lawyer in the previous state had become self-serving & stopped looking out for my best interests. He told me that my case should stay where it was...regardless if I had been living in NV with my child - which was completely false information. If the case moved to NV, then that lawyer could no longer represent me...& he didn't want that. I realized this far too late in the game & what a financial headache it became - a complete & total nightmare. Mr. Friedman graciously understood my predicament & offered to represent me & my matter before the court in NV. Again, time was of the essence, as there were pending motions & court dates on the previous state's calendar. I can't emphasize enough how professional & proficient Mr. Friedman was in regards to handling my case. His honesty was why I hired him. During our consultation, he told me to save the details & my case history, which was of no use to him with my current jurisdictional issue - thus saving me time & money. He thoroughly explained to me, in detail, what needed to be addressed first, which was to establish jurisdiction by means that NV was now the home state of me & my child. He thoughtfully laid out what his rate was, as well as an expected-projected cost of his services, regarding the matter at hand. Not only affordable, but very sincere & understanding...even when I was sensitive & at my most vulnerable. After a few short months of efficient communication with Mr. Friedman, my matter was resolved & jurisdiction was established in NV. His receptionist Gale, always gave my messages to him in a timely manner & my calls were returned by Mr. Friedman, no later than one business day. He answered all my questions, guided me through the legal process, & continuously reassured me when I needed it most. I'm very thankful to be his client, now & into the future - for any & all of my legal matters moving forward.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2021.

Reprimanded issued in NV, 2021

updated on 03/01/2023

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
