Nikki Clark

Nikki is sharp, knows the law inside-out, and is an expert tactician. Her guidance over the last several years have been right on the mark every time and for the first time in a long process I understood there was someone in my corner, someone I could depend on to safeguard my best interests. Above... and beyond Nikki’s clear professional competence, her ability to empathize and understand me and what I was going through made all the difference to me. I highly recommend Nikki to anyone going through a divorce.

Nikki is amazing. We hired her on a moments notice. Our case seemed like a lost cause. The attorney that was representing us was terrible and actually told us to get ready to lose that there was no hope. Nikki was recommended to us and just in time. I can't say it enough, she was amazing. She b...rought us out of the depths and today everything is as it should be. The custody case was difficult and took almost a year but we are through it with Nikki leading the charge.

We have had Nicki on retainer for the better part of 10 years. She has been a serious asset to our family the entire time. We first retained Nicki when my fiancé needed representation around messy child custody issues with a dead-beat dad. She walked us through the steps of mediation and helped us w...ith a restraining order, negotiating terms of custody, and arranging supervised exchanges with minimal time in court. When the dead-beat got arrested for unrelated issues, Nicki was quick to help us get back into court to edit the terms of custody. Years later, when the dead-beat grew up and learned how to behave himself, Nicki was there for us to change the terms of the visits without spending unnecessary time and money in the courtroom. She is knowledgeable in all areas of family law and her years as a professional in Alameda County will pay off for you in the long run - her credibility throughout the courthouse allow you to get everything you need done quick and efficiently.

My divorce started with mediation, which really didn't work. During mediation I had hired an attorney (not Nikki) so I could ask questions and have her review papers before I signed them. All was good, but the process took so long that my attorney retired before it was done! She recommended a few att...orneys, I interviewed them and selected Nikki based on her experience and knowledge. So glad I did. It all came down to one sit-down meeting with me & Nikki, and him and his attorney. Nikki's level of experience with negotiations really made a huge difference, so totally and completely worth having her on my side! There were some things that the other attorney could have requested, but I don't think she knew she could, and Nikki was not about to tell her. Nikki is very sharp. She gave good advice and I felt well-represented through the entire process.

Nikki did an outstanding job utilizing her professionalism, wisdom, negotiation skills, and a longstanding reputation, exercising Herculean efforts, to represent me through a really nasty divorce. Her guidance was always honest, practical, and intelligent. She knows the system, the people, knows her... stuff. She wrapped it up ON CHRISTMAS From bed with pneumonia to bring the entire sad event to a close. She had no fear when confronting a notoriously low-balling attacking attorney. Before and after, I have had opportunity to meet various young attorneys after Nikki Clarks mentoring, they grew excited proclaiming her with reverence, affection, and real respect. I remained able to feel confident and held my head high with her representation where previous attorney's had convinced me that I had little to gain. Everyone who is anyone, knows of Nikki Clark and her abilities and her integrity and devotion for her profession.
