I couldn't be happier with the representation I received from NicholsonPham. I dealt personally…read morewith Meredith Nicholson and she handled my divorce/separation. Having come to her after being frustrated with my previous experience, Meredith was a breath of fresh air. She was always ready, willing and able to answer my questions and boy did I have many. I felt valued, cared for and that my case was a priority. It was difficult enough going through this process and dealing with the fact that my spouse had cheated on me with my best friend, Meredith was able to provide me with no-nonsense representation and I am forever grateful for her guidance. I can't recommend NicholsonPham or Meredith, Kristin and Rebecca / their team enough. They actually care and will do whatever they can to make sure you feel like you are in the know throughout the entire process. You really can't ask for much more than that.

Last year I asked NicholsonPham to help me with a name change. They provided me with a long list of…read moredocuments to obtain and paperwork to fill out. I struggled with this. I have a neurodevelopmental disorder. I found the list overwhelming and the whole point of hiring a lawyer was to minimize what I was going to need to do myself. I was also seeking a name change to remover my former abuser's name from my identity and dealing with this was triggering. I tried to explain this to their legal assistant but that didn't make any difference. I would have paid for additional help, but none was offered. No empathy was available. In fact, their legal assistant was rude and hostile with me, and with the friends who signed my legal attestations. My experience with NicholsonPham was horrible. Their assistant at that time made me feel awful. What should have been freeing was instead re-traumatizing.
