Highly recommend

I could not be happier with the outcome of my BK. Nick was very professional and on task always! Every time I had a question he responded right away and made me feel very assured that everything would be ok. He even helped me with pricing so that I did not have to pay all at once which really help...ed me. I would highly recommend him to anyone! Btw he came recommended by 2 people and I’m glad I went him him.

Cost me because he dropped the ball

Did not handle my case as agreed. Farmed our my case to a "court appointed" "attorney " who did not know anything about my case. Nicholas mishandled my paperwork more than once. Both times blaming his assistants for the errors. He lost me thousands of dollars that I had to pay because his assistants ..."forgot" to file my paperwork even though they were reminded on 4 different occasions to do so. If you are going to deal with him, know you will have to constantly follow up and he may still drop the ball. I have everything in writing and I still got screwed. I lost $3500 because he "missed" sending in paperwork that he was reminded to do over 6 times by 3 different sources.

Outstanding Attorney

The idea of bankruptcy was scary and we felt lost, my wife and I put off filing bankruptcy for almost 2 years because all the other attorneys we had consulted seemed only interested in their fees and cost and not us! It took some time and research to find Nick, however, from the moment we reached ou...t to his office we knew he was the right attorney for our chapter 7. He answered all of our questions, he is very knowledgeable and professional he made the whole process so easy and had very convenient payment options. Not to mention he always personally answered the phone when my wife called. Nick answered all my emails even on a weekend ( I sent him a few). After our bankruptcy discharged he emailed and called us to congratulate us and offer his help if we had any questions on building our credit after bankruptcy. Nick truly cares about his clients and our experience with his firm was AMAZING!!

WOW

Initially I was nervous about filing for Bankruptcy. I kept putting it off. One day in June of 2017 I decided I was going to file but then the anxiety and nervousness started again. Where do I start looking for an attorney, can I afford it and then I found Wajda Law Group. I read all the testimon...ies and decided to give them a call. I called and was transferred to Nick Wajda right away. I did not have to wait for him to call me back. The man was professional and thorough. Explained to me the process, sent me everything via email with detailed explanations and directions and even offered a payment plan. It seemed too good to be true but guess what, it was true. He filed my paperwork July 2017, before I finished paying them the fees, the debt collectors stopped calling me almost right away and now, October 25, 2017 I am debt free. I would totally recommend Wajda Law Group.

Stress free bankruptcy.

Working with this attorney was a stress free easy procedure. Mostly done on the telephone and via e-mail for all of the necessary paperwork and documents needed for my bankruptcy case. All of my questions were answered promptly. I had one court date and I was met there by the attorney who would re...present me. Half an hour in court and I was done. Excellent methods and efficiency.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.

Reprimanded issued in NV, 2023

updated on 11/06/2023

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.
