Nicolas Carl Vrataric

I came across Nico by reading his client reviews on avvo. One thing I found was that his reviews made me comfortable. They weren't fake, or doctored up, they were real. Real people, real reviews. Nico has a mind of his own but not once does it derail from who is important, his client. He is a stand ...up guy that wants what is right for his client. Throughout the entire process not once did I feel one bit uncomfortable. That to me is priceless. Lawyers are made to make the other client uncomfortable but with Nico on my side he did an incredible job of predicting the next move and strategically making ours. With confidence and heart he led me to the best outcome for both parties. He has been added to my personal contacts as a friend not just as an attorney. Words cannot explain the feelings one goes through during a lawsuit. But my experience was nothing more than a pleasant and comfortable experience. 10 out of 10! Hands down!

I was recently wrongfully terminated by my employer one week after giving a nine hour deposition in a sexual harassment investigation, where I supported the plaintiff's claims against my employer. After my initial complimentary consultation with Nicolas "Nico" Vrataric, it was obvious right out of ...the gate that he had keen insight and expertise in a myriad of areas in the law, especially employment law. I found myself needing to call on Nico on a wide variety of employment law issues related to my case and I always found his responses intelligent, creative and well grounded. From my experience working with Nico, I can say unequivocally that he knows how to make his his clients feel safe and at-ease while going through an emotionally and confusing tough time- all the while feeling confident that their legal representation is unparalleled. He skillfully navigated through two rounds of mediation with authority and charisma, utilizing his consultative approach to keep me informed and working existing relationships to ultimately reach a very healthy settlement out of court. Nico is fearless, he reached high and I actually felt bad for the other attorney- who had a decent reputation, but Nico wound up crushing him. I have referred Nico to several other people and will continue to do so. I will be forever grateful that I was represented by Nico on this case.

Mr. Vrataric is representing me in a Personal Injury case, and I am beyond pleased with the extensive work, determination, and faith he has put into this matter. His aggressiveness toward my case and his wealth of knowledge are very impressive. I am continually amazed by his tactics and strategies,... and he has an uncanny way of being able to explain everything to me so thoroughly and thoughtfully. He is compassionate, available, intelligent, hard-working, and well regarded by everyone who knows him. And he's personable, to boot! I highly recommend this lawyer and his law firm. I've had an all-around good experience during a situation that could have been much more terrible and agonizing.

I found Nico by accident, but thank goodness I did. He handled a wrongful termination case for me. Using his very sharp negotiating skills, Nico had me reinstated with back pay and an employment contract. I also received an apology and a raise. My reputation as a great employee has been restored, a...nd the person who wrongfully terminated me was rightfully terminated. None of that would have happened if I'd tried to handle it on my own. Nico kept me in the loop at all times, but even more importantly, he believed in me as he fought for my rights, and kept me in good spirits during my period of unemployment, when I didn't yet know how well it would all turn out.
