This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Professional and Experienced in Mediation

Nathaniel has been very professional in his work, correspondence, and ideas about how to resolve really complex, work and family situations. I think he is very fair for billing and knows how to deal with difficult, complex and emotional issues. Mr. Sterling went above and beyond my expectations for... entering a resolution when he was first hired. He continues to send references and materials so that I am well educated in making a final decision with my case.

Excellent attorney

Attorney-mediator Nate Sterling gave me very helpful advice and information in a free consultation regarding my legal case. I would highly recommend him and would meet with him if needed in the future. I like that he tries to settle things in mediation and avoid litigation if feasible in order to s...ave time, stress, and money.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2011.

Discipline with Actual Suspension issued in CA, 2011

updated on 07/13/2016

This sanction means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Nathaniel’s comment:

“Discipline case has no applicability to present as discipline related to handful of cases with contingency fee retainer agreement the bar said was excessive fees. (Incidentally, many law firms charge $250 an hour on guaranteed hourly fee cases, not high-risk disputed liability contingency cases I was handling.) Contingency fee structure was mistake and was implemented over a brief window of time and was and never will be used again. No relevance to present.”
