Nathan Christopher Holtey

After my ex-wife married a millionaire, I hired Nathan to help me end the alimony I’d been paying since the divorce. In my original divorce case, I’d had a lawyer who had purported to work for men, but he’d only been there for the paycheck and had gotten me a bad deal, one that required me to increas...e alimony payments as the years went on. When it came time to file for termination of alimony, I hired a lawyer to handle the case, but after three months of next to no progress, terrible communication, and misrepresenting the status of the case, I fired him. I researched several law firms and contacted a few. From the moment I spoke to Nathan, I knew he was the right guy for the job. I wanted someone who was an excellent communicator (incredibly important since his predecessor was almost impossible to get ahold of), understood the nuances of alimony termination, and was willing to fight for me. Nathan hit the nail on the head in every regard. He always responded to my calls and emails, and often times, he reached out to update me on the status of the case on his own. During the deposition, he caught my ex in several lies and used that to played hardball with her attorney. He got us a fair deal, and now I no longer pay alimony to the wife of a millionaire. Lastly, he understands that legal representation is expensive. Instead of shrugging at the cost and holding his hand out for more money, he let me do some of the heavy lifting. He encouraged me to participate in every aspect of the case and allowed me to save thousands by doing certain things myself. While no one wants to hire a lawyer and pay the fees associated with it, Nathan is worth the investment. In the long run, hiring him will save you money and headaches. I HIGHLY recommend Nathan at Holtey Law.

I found that shopping for attorneys is like shopping for cars everybody wants to tell you on something. I was referred to Nathan by a lawyer friend of mine who practices a different area of law. Nathan specialized in the type of thing that my ex through against me. I made the appointment with Nathan ...and screwed up the initial consultation by coming a day early but Nate dropped a conference call and met with me to look over my paperwork despite his busy schedule. 24 hours later we did the full consultation and I expected Nate like the other attorneys promise to put the "system on trial" and whatever fire and brimstone speech that comes with a selling point. Much to my surprise, he did not try to sell me he was very realistic and pragmatic about how to resolve my case and told me how they usually go because he had handled over a hundred of the cases like mine. This made a impression on me and I was well aware that I went to an attorney that would work hard in the things that we could actually control in my case (which we won) furthermore, Nathan actually referred my case to another attorney in his firm who specialized in the county that I was working on my legal issue in. The attorney actually Cost less than Nathan's hourly rate so this saved me a ton of money. It showed me a lot when he delegated to somebody who knew better than him about my County when he could have wasted my money because he charges more. Instead I got the more knowledgeable attorney about my issue and a cheaper hourly rate! Nathan and Holtey law in general is about getting the right result, setting realistic expectations for their clients, and overall trying to save you money and what can be a costly Affair no matter where you go in the Portland metropolitan area. I hope I never have to hire a lawyer again but if I do it would be Nathan or Holtey law
