  • "Extremely professional!"

    Mr. Nelson is extremely professional. He accomplished everything I wanted in a timely manner. The end result was exactly how he explained to me on the first contact. He is very understanding and has an open ear and mind. You just need to communicate to Mr. Nelson and all will be fine.

  • "Through out it all he treated me as a good person and never once made me feel like just another client."

    Because of Mr. Nelson’s hard work, I no longer feel let down by our judicial system. I emailed him on a whim after having the disappointment of an over worked public defender. And I must say that it was the best stoke of luck I have had so far. At the time, he was on vacation with his family and took time to contact me. From July to Oct. he took a felony charge that had been in the system for almost a year and dropped it down to a misdemeanor and promptly answered every one of my questions regardless of weather it had to do with my case or not. Showed compassion for my short comings and encouraged me to stay positive and continue working toward my goals despite my charges. Through out it all he treated me as a good person and never once made me feel like just another client. I will always be forever grateful to him and would recommend him to anyone who really needs someone on their side. I assure you that after hiring him you will feel like you won the lottery. I can not say enough wonderful things about just how amazing this man really is...
