Best Attorney in Town

I knew right away that Nick was the attorney for me when we met at my consultation. Nick gladly took my case. Nick and his team delivered on every promise made throughout the process. Getting a divorce is not pleasant by any means, but this team made the experience less stressful and a little less p...ainful. My divorce took 11 months start to finish. I do not recommend anyone getting a divorce. In my opinion it is the worst thing that anyone can go through but if you find yourself in this situation I highly recommend Azemika & Azemika to represent you. Trust me! You will not be disappointed.

Nick is amazing

I needed a consultation regarding family law/child custody. Nick responded right away and took his time to ask me questions about my concerns without being dismissive. During our consultation, he answered each question I had, and provided clarification. Super professional and respectful. He took his ...time when looking over my paperwork. There was no pressure to provide a retainer, he really seemed to have my best interest at heart. Personally supported me not just as my lawyer but as a friend. I was scared and not knowing the process and outcome, he always said it like it was. I would leave the office at ease every time. Nick was always on top of paperwork and responded to my emails promptly. I had the best team Nick , Kim, Bridget I would hire every time again and again if needed. Thank you so much !!

Ms. M

I was very fortunate to have hired Mr. Nicholas Azemika to represent me in my divorce proceedings. He is extremely knowledgeable about family law and fully represented my best interests. He is hard working, professional and has a great staff as well. I would highly recommend him.

A very happy ending to a stressful complicated divorce

I have retained Nick on two different occasions. Both times he obtained very favorable outcomes in my case. He always returned calls and emails promptly and thoroughly. His expertise in family law is of the highest caliber as is evident by the degree of respect he has with his peers. He has amazing n...egotiation skills with the passion to pursue your case for your desired outcome. If Nick tells you something you can rely on it being the truth. No blowing smoke to make you feel he is your advocate. He is a fine lawyer who I have been impressed and immensely satisfied with. He has a quick wit which puts you at ease from the moment you meet him. In addition to Nick his brother Anthony is also available as his law partner with whom he has often consulted with on my case to obtain the absolute best outcome for me. You might say you actually get two lawyers for the price of one. Nick in and of himself is a great bargain but with Anthony it is an absolutely GREAT deal. Both are professionals' of the highest caliber as is their office staff which includes Bridget, Kimberly and Echo. They are all very interested in providing the best services for their clients. They made what was a very stressful experience a much more organized and calm outcome. I would recommend Nick to anyone looking to handle their family law needs. You will be very happy with your choice of the law firm of Azemika and Azemika. Because of his outstanding professionalism, skill level and sensitivity for his clients I affectionately refer to him as "Saint Nick". Thank you Nick.

Don't pass up an opportunity to hire him. He is partnered with his identical twin brother, but they look nothing alike."
