Best legal team I have ever encountered

I initially found Nick Wajda and the Wajda Law Group on Yelp. When I called in, I was immediately routed to Nick and he took the time to patiently and accurately access my client’s situation. I must have called Nick over a dozen times in one day to try and process a client in the same day as I ...initially called. Nick was so professional and expedient that he completely exceeded any and all expectations. I HIGHLY recommend the Wajda Law Group, they are my go-to legal team.

Expert level

I was going to do this myself and realized an Attorney would be the better investment from a time and expertise angle. Well I expected this to be not only emotionally difficult, but legally difficult as well. However, the Wajda Law Group took away the legal stress and seamlessly handled my case in ...a timely fashion. From the first conversation, Nick provided fair rates, clear and direct communication, prompt follow up throughout my case, and honesty when guiding me through my financial crisis. Will definitely recommend!

Bankruptcy filed.

We had been looking for a good lawyer to help us file for bankruptcy five months ago as we didn't have any knowledge how to do it alone. Never filed one before . We found Atty. Nicholas Wajda on the internet when we searched for bankruptcy lawyers.... his name or his office just sounded good and re...liable to us. So we contacted him. He was very professional in handling our case, very responsive and guided us step by step. Answered our questions and was always there to answer or calls and/or emails. We're not sorry for what we did, despite the shame we felt to our families and friends to arrive at that depressing economic situation in our lives. We thank Atty. Nicholas Wajda and his associates who boosted our morale in those times of trials and hardship. We hope other people especially in their senior years, who experienced and are experiencing what we had, will be able to sustain and hurdle their financial hardship in these challenging times, thru the help of good bankruptcy lawyers, one like Atty. Nicholals Wajda. We thank him for being there for us.

I should have hired a different lawyer

When I was looking for a lawyer I looked at the reviews here on Avvo.com and saw that Mr. Wajda had high ratings and when I called for my free consultation he seemed knowledgeable and like an all around good choice. However, a few months after hiring Mr. Wajda as my bankruptcy lawyer, I realized what... huge mistake I had made. The reviews on here are older (probably from before he started his own firm) and I should have taken that into account. He is a very lazy lawyer. He does not handle situations himself, instead he gives you a number to a different lawyer and expects you to contact them and handle it yourself. He does not represent you during the hearing (he sends another lawyer that you've never met). He also does not keep you informed and requires you to call him for everything.There are more bad experiences that I could write on here, but I'm going to keep it short. With all this said, I would most definitely recommend looking elsewhere for a lawyer.

Experience

Rating:  4.8 (Concern)

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.
