No nonsense, straight to the point

I started looking for an attorney when I realized I made a huge mistake by not disclosing information I thought was not relevant, but was. Troy's firm was the first that I called, and Troy was assigned to my case. A stroke of luck it was. Troy very quickly went directly to the heart of the issue, ...put together a roadmap of action items for me to complete, and gave me a clear deadline. He provided the broad context as well as the details, which made it easy for me to complete my tasks independently. Finally, when he compiled a submission packet, he included statutory language alongside bullet points detailing clearly how we met the statutory requirements for correcting an error. From start to finish, it was the quickest path from Point A to Point B. Troy also accommodated my desire to accelerate the timeframe of our response. He was engaging, respectful, and very pleasant to work with. I recommend him highly.

Helpful, Compassionate, and Sharp

Troy Nussbaum was extremely helpful and insightful; he was able to understand my situation, as well as explain my options. He was also kind. However, do not be fooled... Troy is a sharp, competent, and truly confidence inspiring attorney. I highly recommend Troy Nussbaum.

Professional and Knowledgable Security Clearance Advice

I set up a consultation with Mr. Nussbaum to help advise me on obtaining a security clearance. Mr. Nussbaum was professional and very knowledgeable, and guided me through the clearance process and how to approach and complete it. The advice I received gave me peace of mind and was instrumental in obt...aining my security clearance. If you have any questions or concerns regarding matters relating to obtaining a security clearance, I would highly recommend Mr. Nussbaum.

Expert advice for security clearance issues

I hired Troy as a preemptive consultation for some issues with my Secret Clearance Application. I was worried about mitigation of some fairly recent cannabis use. Troy helped me take specific actions to mitigate these red flags in a quick and professional manner. Luckily my clearance came back as gra...nted. I largely credit Troys advice for helping to limit the concerns around my potential risks. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice on the security clearance process.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Attorney Nussbaum. Many of my clients are required to maintain a government security clearance as a condition of employment. That often presents unique challenges for the proper handling of their matter. Mr. Nussbaum has been a vital component to the mix of competent representation in parallel with actions that will contribute to an outcome that will not jeopardize that continued government security clearance."

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"It is my pleasure to endorse attorney Troy Nussbaum. Troy joined our firm while he was in law school as a law clerk. He worked mainly for me as the Senior Partner in the areas of my practice concentration which were assisting government contractors and national security clearance appeals. Troy had exactly the qualities which I needed and clearly, as time went on, could endure as my successor when I retired. I was sufficently comfortable with Troy’s, knowledge, expertise and demeanor for me to recommend him for membership as an attorney in the Security Clearance Lawyers Association and for him to accompany me in security clearance hearings before the National Security Agency and the Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals. I am now retired from my law firm of Henault & Sysko, Chartered and I highly recommend Troy Nussbaum for representation in cases which require substantial legal knowledge, mature judgment and finest."
