Nicole Valentine

27 Years old and got my first DUI. I was terrified of loosing my RN License especially cause my B.A.C. was so high. Nicole was realistic and honest with me explaining the severity of my situation. She was calm and collected and guided me through everything i needed to do and promised she would work ...her hardest for me. She had plenty of experience with cases similar to mine which comforted me. Nicole was sympathetic and understanding of my situation. She was never to busy for me anytime i had a question or doubts and fears about my case. Reasonable fees for the excellent work provided. I am glad to say I still have my RN License all thanks to her. I pray I never find myself in a situation like that again. But if I am ever in trouble, I Know I can count on NIcole Valentin RN Guardian at Goyette and Associates. Thanks and God bless you Nicole!

Nicole Valentine with Goyette & Associates is a fantastic attorney. Nicole is straight forward, professional, prompt, and very knowledgeable in her area of profession. Nicole never missed a beat when it came to attending to my legal matters. Nicole returned every phone call, text, and email promptly.... She was always honest and straightforward with all legal matters and always had my best interests in mind. I am very pleased with the results of my case and would recommend Nicole to my closest friends and colleagues. If you have any doubts in the matter, trust me when I say you are in good hands... as I have had my fair share with other attorneys... she is by far my top choice. If I could use her in other legal areas as my attorney, I would!

Calling Nicole Valentine was the smartest thing I could have done. Being a new grad with past convictions, I knew I would have numerous hoops to jump through in order to receive my license. Nicole walked me through the whole process and explained all possible outcomes. I followed her directions to a ...tee. It took time, but I received my Interim permit and ATT. I’m so greatful. Time to schedule N-CLEX.

I am a nurse who got into deep legal trouble that not only threatened my license but also my freedom. I have never been more scared than I was the day I got a voicemail from a detective from the LA Sheriff’s Department. I knew why he was calling. I had already retained Nicole for the issues I woul...d be having with the BRN. I was a basket case and called her immediately. Nicole was honest with the possible outcomes but also explained to me things she could do to help improve the situation. I had multiple felony counts related to narcotics. Jail, if not prison, was potentially part of the equation. To make a long story short, in less than 6 months, I was being offered the sweetest diversion deal ever...no drug testing, no probation-only community service and a continuation of the treatment I was already receiving. I am a mother of 4. The idea of incarceration was very far off my ability accept. Nicole handled my case with not only with expertise but also with the best “bedside manner” a client could ever dream of. She held my hand through it all in the most compassionate nonjudgmental way. 6 months later I feel like I have my life back. I’m feeling stronger and better than ever and Nicole Valentine played no small part in that. I can not give her higher recommendations. I will truly forever be grateful to her.

In March of 2017 I was driving home from San Francisco and was pulled over for speeding; As soon as I saw those lights in my rear view I knew I was in trouble, as I had been drinking. I was arrested, booked, and charged with a DUi; the entire time I was there all I could think about was how my life ...would change if I wasn't a nurse anymore. When I was released and picked up by my best friend (also a RN), she told me she had been researching all night, and found RN Guardian (RNG)! It was my priority to have a lawyer who understood how important it was to protect my RN license above all else. I spent the majority of the next day talking with Jennifer at RNG and crying. As soon as I was put in contact with Nicole (within 2 days), I immediately felt at ease. She helped me every step of the way and was always very very honest and realistic with me. March-Sept was the most stressful time of my entire life. I have never been in trouble for more than a speeding ticket! Never even had a detention growing up! Navigating the legal system would have been unrealistic for me, and I'm so lucky that I had Nicole and RNG on my side. I found out in September whilestanding on the curb at LAX with my best friend, (who has been with me since the lights started flashing), that I received a Cite and Fine from the BRN. I can tell you that we were jumping up and down and crying, and definitely making a scene! Without Nicole fighting for me and getting my DUI reduced to a Wet and Reckless (in a VERY strict jurisdiction), I honestly don't know where I would be. I cannot thank her enough for protecting my license and my sanity. Thank you Nicole and RNG!
