I had gotten arrested for the first time in my life in February in Washington county. I was was charged with misdemeanor assault in the 4th degree, criminal mischief 2nd degree, disorderly conduct, 2nd degree and 2 other small misdemeanors. It felt like my world was crashing around me. I called at... least 15 lawyers. Maybe 5 of them actually gave me a call back. Any lawyer that was outside of Washington county would either charge me more for the case because it's in Washington county or wouldn't even take it. When I called Erik for the first time I was surprised he even picked up. Every other lawyer I called it went to there voice mail and I won't hear from them for days. Since this was my first time getting arrested I had a lot of questions for Erik. He answered each question with great detail and not in a condescending way like with other lawyers that I've talked to. He was very straight forward and upfront with me when telling me what was going to happen and how this whole processes works. The second I got off the phone with Erik I knew that I found my lawyer, he made I feel so unbelievably relieved. At no point during this process did he pressure me about payment, his only concern was to help me in this possibly life altering event. Anytime that I had either called or emailed Erik, he got back to me as soon as he could. From day one he was in the ear of the district attorney. It helped that I gave Erik a very descriptive and accurate account of what happened on the date of my arrest. It gave him more ammo when talking to the D.A. Within 3 weeks of hiring Erik I never had to appear in court and the D.A had dropped to cast. I hope that I never need a lawyer again, but if I ever need to be represented in court I'll be giving Erik a call. I would highly recommend Erik. He'll get you the best possible outcome!!!

Erik was the first person who reached out to me after I found myself needing some legal help. The ENTIRE process he was over communicative about every step, never overwhelming me with legal jargon. His office would say something would get to me within an hour, and always within minutes. In person he'...s personable, non assuming, and very relatable. I would recommend him to my best friends.

Mr. Nicholson is very knowledgeable in his profession and made me feel at ease. First, he conducted a Free phone consultation and walked me through the process. Second, we had a meeting face to face and Mr. Nicholson walked me through the whole process and made me feel at ease. Third, he informed me ...of updates and kept me in the loop. Finally, I would recommend Mr. Nicholson for your solutions, as he knows the law!

I was charged with a DUI last December and hired Mr. Nicholson for legal representation. His rates were very fair and actually less expensive than other lawyers I talked with. This was my first DUI and he walked me through the whole process and took the time to answer any questions I had. He was ...very knowledgeable about Oregon's laws on DUI and took the best appropriate action for my case and felt a great relief after my court date; everything went as smoothly as possible. I really got the impression that he cared about my as an individual and not just a number or checkbook. I didn't feel judged or looked down upon and treated me with respect through the whole process. In my opinion if you are charged with a DUI or similar situation, Mr. Nicholson is one of the best lawyers out there with a wealth of knowledge and who will get you the best outcome possible. I highly recommend Mr. Nicholson.
