Nathan Holms Petersen

Nathan and his team were such a huge help during what ended up being a 2 year fight. They make time to actually listen to your concerns and answer questions in a professional but compassionate way. They are responsive and always make sure to keep the case on track. Family courts can be a scary and an...xiety provoking thing to navigate, but Nathan and his team are there to help. I cannot recommend this firm enough.

Nathan is a very competent and hard working attorney. My case was, as he labeled it, "death by a million papercuts". What is meant by this is that it wasn't a clear cut, slam dunk case with huge, glaring issues such as drug use, criminal activity or domestic abuse. It was a case with a million tiny ...issues that made up a larger coparenting issue which made joint custody toxic for the children and both parents, warranting a modification in custody. I imagine such a case is much more challenging for an attorney strategically. I certainly made personal mistakes along the way that likely complicated things for him, but he remained patient. I know I wasn't an easy client to deal with but Nathan was a calm presence, always patient and stayed the course. Nathan can take time to build a case, through involving third parties such as custody evaluators, therapists, forensic psychologists... etc. I would not expect any custody modification situation to be quick and easy, especially cases like mine where there is nothing slam dunk about it. I met a lady from my kids school who grew impatient with the length of time it was taking to build her case against her ex husband, left Nathan, retained another attorney, who worked faster to get her to trial, but she actually experienced set backs that were detrimental to her case. She expressed multiple times to me that one of her biggest regrets in life was not being patient with Nathan and substituting counsel. For this reason, I am proud of Nathan. He is thorough and thinks and plans ahead, even if it does take a little longer. I did win my case with Nathan's help. Modifying a joint custody parenting plan is extremely difficult. I don't want to give anyone false hope but I can say that you are in competent hands with Nathan on your team. I would recommend Nathan to anyone but my ex husband.

Nathan made friends with my ex and was joking with him outside the court room when I came out of the bathroom. Nathan often yelled at me and caused me a lot of emotional distress. He said that he had included exhibits that he had not to the detriment of my case. He said that I did not have informa...tion in writing when it was clearly attached to the email. I told him to please read the attachment and he continued to state that I did not have the information in writing. These are a few of the many issues I had with Nathan. If you are emotional about your case at all then he will treat you badly and make it worse.

After reading reviews on this page over a year ago I met with Nathan and knew instantly I wanted his help in my case. During my consult he listed to what I had to say and instantly made me feel comfortable and confident in his ability to help me with my family law case. I knew my case could get compl...icated but he never missed a beat. His staff is extremely nice and kept me up to date every step of the way. The communication was amazing through the entire process. I highly recommend Nathan and am so appreciative of how him and his office have helped me with my case! Thank you so very much!!

Without any hesitation, I would recommend Nathan and his amazing team if you need help with a family law matter! I hired Nathan in the middle of my divorce when the situation was very bleak for me and I was losing hope of seeing my daughter very little. With his help, I was able to turn the tide an...d received a settlement in my favor. Alina and Rachelle were great with answering my phone calls promptly and correctly filling out court documents to Nathan's specifications. You have a voice with Nathan by your side and can trust that he will fight for your rights as a father. Also know that he will work with you financially, which enabled me to pay for his services. Thank you, Nathan, for all you have done for me and my daughter!!
