Mr

My English it’s not that good so I try to comunícate with people they just didn’t do what I said so I hired MR Nick and he guided me legally and did his job so I will recommend him to friends and family with my eyes close

Great!

Nick represented me in an L&I case. He negotiated a sizeable settlement well above what was expected. He was honest, professional, and patient throughout the process. I have already referred him to a friend and will continue to do so.

My last chance

After calling several lawyers that would not agree to take my case, Nicholas not only helped me to understand the law. He was able to get me a settlement !!

Excellence at its best!

Nick was wonderful to work with throughout this ongoing process. He was always straightforward and honest and would take the time to explain every detail until i understand each and every step. It is nice to work with someone that takes a minute to get to now you on personal level, and doesn’t force... things on you that you may not understand. The step by step approach for me and explanation of all details are things I look for in the people I hire to help with the things I don’t understand. I would recommend him to anyone I know, and would you use him again in the future.

Exceptional lawyer

I worked with Nick for over a year to settle a case. I found Nick to be honest and forthright. He patiently explained all of the options within the confines of the law and gave his advice but ultimately left the decision to me regarding how to proceed. Nick was in regular communication with me regard...ing all developments in the case. Nick was easy to reach and quickly returned phone calls. Nick is an exceptional lawyer that operates with integrity and ethics. He does not play games or engage in questionable behavior. Nick is engaging and personable. He was amazing to work with.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
