Nobody ever wants to have to hire a lawyer for a DUII but if you live in the Portland Metro area and find yourself in need of a lawyer for this unfortunate reason I couldn’t recommend Mr. Nicholson any higher. His calm, collected, professional and non-judgmental demeanor are all examples of why he’s ...the right choice to represent you with your case. Anytime I had a question or concern he had an objective answer that helped guide me through the judicial process. He was prompt, respectful, warm and very proactive in my case. His assistant was also very helpful and always worked with a sense of urgency when I had questions I needed answers to. During the entire process of my case I felt very well represented and I’m grateful for the work he and his team did. I obviously can’t guarantee you he will win your case for you because every circumstance is different, but I can attest to the fact that he will go above and beyond to work towards the best possible outcome while being transparent and forthright about your options during your case.

I never imagined I’d get in trouble with the law, especially being as straight edge as I am. So I’m sure you could imagine how scared I was when I had to go to court. A friend of mine recommended Erik and I can honestly say it was a breath of fresh air. I was so stressed and uncertain, but Erik was a...ble to work with me and the state to drop pretty much everything and make the best deal possible. His receptionist was also helpful in answering questions, and was always kind to me. I hope I never get in any legal trouble again, but if I do, I know who I am hiring!

Erik and his associates were able to clearly answer all of my questions and act as a road map to successfully entering diversion. As a first time offender I had very little knowledge of how to navigate my situation and Erik really helped turn a stressful ordeal into something manageable that I could ...navigate. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking sound legal counsel.

From start to finish Erik was very helpful and knowledgable regarding my case. He and his assistant had great communication, responding quickly and answering any questions I had. I believe I received the best outcome possible for my case and would highly recommend Erik to anyone needing representatio...n.
