I hired Erik based on the competency he demonstrated during a phone consultation. My daughter had a DUI, followed by a "driving while suspended". We were very scared and nervious of it's outcome. In 12+ hours Erik was in court defending my daughter. His professionalism is unmatched and his knowle...dge brought this outcome to a degree we never thought possible. I hope I never need his services again, but I completely trust him in potential future needs and will only offer "his" name to others who may need expert legal counsel.

I had an assault on my record dating back to 2000. After 11 years and a new family/kids, I needed to put my past behind me. I did a google search for a local Attorney who could help me get my record clean. The local school requires a background check for any Parent to attend, or participate in a scho...ol field trip. Last year, I was unable to go to the pumpkin Patch with my 3 year old Daughter, and that was unacceptable! Mr. Nicholson was able to walk me through the process, all the while calling me to keep me well informed of the progress. I am happy to report that I have successfully passed the required background check, and am cleared to not only attend, but chaperon field trips. Without question I will look to Mr. Nicholson first for any future legal advice, or representation.

Erik was very helpful in my defense. He was very informative and open even before I decided to use his services. He helped lighten the burden of legal issues immensely. Ultimately with his defense I ended up with many charges being dropped and a way out of the legal trouble all together. I'd highl...y recommend him.

Erik Nicholson is by far the best attorney in my opinion. after having had the same attorney in portland for over 8 years there is no comparison. he helped me through an unfortunate and scary time in my life. never leaving me without knowing exactly what was going on. Always available when i need...ed him and always honest. genuine!
