Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Kaelan if you’re looking for legal representation. I reached out to him late in the evening after an accident and he was extremely helpful from the moment I called him. He explained the entire process to me and informed me of what my options were. Throughout the entire process, I f...elt like I was in good hands. If I had any questions about my case or wanted an update he was quick to respond. He went above and beyond to fight for my case and got results!

Super Lawyer. Honest, Professional And Justice Driven. Highly Recommended

Kaelan epitomizes everything right about a lawyer that pursues legal justice for a client. From our initial meeting, Kaelan was enthusiastic, honest, and straightforward about the reality of the situation and the possibilities which could possibly come about from the pursuit of justice. He was always... professional, timely and informative in any communication that we had throughout the entire process. I'm very appreciative to Kaelan and the Champion Law Firm for their efforts, professionalism, and sincere concern about seeking justice for their clients. I highly recommend Kaelan Nielsen to anybody seeking legal representation.

Helped me get testing accommodations!

I had trouble getting approved for accommodations for my learning disability. I had accommodations during school and for other major exams, but this one particular licensing exam denied my request and my appeal. Mr. Nielsen had a similar experience, and knew that I was getting wrongfully denied and i...n violation of ADA testing accommodation requirements. He put together an excellent demand letter citing violations of the ADA and tailored to my specific condition and needs. Thanks to Mr. Nielsen’s efforts, the exam committee immediately approved my accommodations without questions!

Made me rethink lawyers in general

I have been really lucky to have had the chance to hire Kaelan twice now. He made the case with my car accident smooth and less awful having to deal with what happened. Then again with my employment case as well. Kaelan is an all around solid and honest man who always gives updates as to what's goi...ng on in the process and makes himself always available to talk to about anything. I have had horrible experiences in the past with attorneys, but he has restored my faith that there are still lawyers out there that do this to genuinely help people navigate the troubled waters that is the legal system.

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.
