Thank you for your help!

I had never faced a criminal charge so I was terrified on how this would effect my life. after reading reviews online I decided to talk to Erik. he told me what was happening, what would happen, and how to make it better. throughout the entire case he kept in contact with me so i could know what i ne...eded to do, which wasnt very much. Erik made it so I could get my life back quickly. Thank you so much!

Best decision I made

When I first reached out to Eric I had tried to contact a number of attorneys and due to the time of the week I had missed all of their business hours. The following day after my numerous phone calls Eric called me back. I want to start off by saying he was the only attorney to call me back out of... six I had reached out to. Before Eric got the chance to review my case he and I had gone over some potential options of legal outcomes. After a couple lengthy conversations I decided to hire Eric as my defense attorney. Eric really took the situation by the horns and started getting into the ear of the DA to figure out our best approach for my case. After about a week Eric contacted me to let me know that the DA was dropping the charges. The conversation between Eric and the prosecuting defense attorney must have been a favorable one, A few weeks after Eric told me the charges were dropped he gave me another call to let me know that the DA is considering this case buried. The charges I was potentially looking at would have affected the rest of my life in ways I was not prepared for. Before Eric contacted me back I fully anticipated on representing myself or obtaining a court appointed attorney. Thanks to Mr. Nicholson I now have my life back on track. The only better Choice I could have made was never getting myself into the predicament to begin with. For all other choices Eric Nicholson is your best option.

Excellent attorney

I hired Erik Nicholson for my DUI in June 2016 with multiple other charges. I was very upset and scared, but he went straight to work and eased my worries. He worked hard for me, was always available to talk, and did a wonderful job on my case! I would highly recommend him!!!!

Fantastic, proactive, knowledgeable

The difference between Eric and another attorney I consulted with was day and night; Eric saying and doing so many proactive things the other guy didn't. He was knowledgeable, quick, answered all of my questions, explained what was happening, what could happen, what was next, and what to expect, whic...h was very helpful given how scared and uncertain I was. He ultimately delivered good, relieving, life-altering news. He is well-connected in the law community, and followed through with doing what he said he was going to do. He took initiative and I felt like he had a good handle on my situation, from beginning to end and beyond. At best, I would have been hung out to dry with the other attorney I spoke with. I would absolutely recommend Eric Nicholson, and would contact him in a heartbeat if I ever need legal assistance again.

An excellent lawyer for the first time offender!

Erik Nicholson has been an incredible communicator on all the facets of my DUI case. Knowing nothing myself on what I had just gotten into, I received a helpful letter and quick response from him as I was searching for legal help. He is very empathetic and patient walking me through my questions, and... very clear on the best strategies to get the best outcome. I appreciate how relatable he is to work with! He translates the legalese into a clear message and knows the best way to handle the game, and as someone not well versed in law or the criminal system it really helped to have his guidance. He presented us impeccably professionally in court and I'm happy with the verdict. I will recommend him to any other friends needing legal advice on this kind of situation.
