My guardian angel!

I spoke to Nieves Osaba on the phone in my darkest moment, fearful voice, shaking body, very concerned about the uncertainty of my son and my future. Nieves gave me the confidence and held my hand to light just in that one phone call. She is a God sent angel, a guardian for my son and I. She’s been ...working on my case day and night, she responds to concerns and questions even on weekends. She continues to fight my ex and his crook attorney with fierce fury and aggression. If you’re looking for a family law attorney who will fight for you, Nieves is the one to trust. Words can’t do justice for how grateful I am for her. Thank you Nieves.

True professional & ferocious fighter!!!!!!!!!!

Nieves was recommended to me by a friend and practicing attorney when I found myself sinking into the abyss of family court hell. The father was lying, hiding money and pointing the finger at me. The court made me feel like I was the liar and had no reason to be there. Nieves stepped in took ov...er and things changed the very first court appearance. She argued all the points need to prove the fraud the father committed on court and his own children. She was so great that the defense (father & attorney) approached us to settle on all matters before it went before the judge. She was able to get me over $25,000 in back support and more then tripled the monthly support!!!!!!! More then I had ever hoped or dreamed of!!! This ordeal went on for close to a year and Nieves NEVER asked or more money after the initial (very modest) retainer. It was not until the settlement was reached did she bring up the issue of more money. This goes to show her true professionalism and integrity! She was there for me every step of the way, always communicated with me, even late at night and on weekends. She fraught tirelessly for me and my two girls and it was and will continue to be a live changing ordeal for all of us! I would have been closed out, left to struggle for 11 more years if not for Nieves. To say thank you just does not seem to convey my gratitude!!! She is a great person, great lawyer and worth every penny!! Thank you for everything you have changed my life!!!!!

Horrible Attorney

My brother was actually a client of hers, and to say she is a poor attorney is putting it mildly. I would not recommend this attorney to anybody. She never put up a fight in court or tried to argue my brothers side of the story. She was lazy and never touched bases with my brother to make sure he kne...w what was going on or to practice for the following court date. She's a poor excuse for her profession and should be dis barred.

Given the serious allegations against your brother and the particular witnesses that were going to testify against him, it was in his best interest not go to trial. I stand by my decision to not having your brother testify. I am sorry you feel the way that you do but I did not want to expose him to possible criminal charges. I wish you and your brother the best of luck.

Did not expect lawyers like this to exist!

I am so glad to have found Nieves Osaba. She came recommended through a friend who had previously hired her for her custody issues, with great success. This was a good indicator. I had several attorneys before and lost hope. She is still on my case and I have nothing but good things to say about her.... Someone you can trust to fight for you, to work hard, to care, prepared and knowledgeable, always in great spirit. I just wish I had known her ealier.
