CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Caroline Donato was my criminal attorney. She was by far the smartest and most insightful person in the court room. She was also a delightful person and a pleasure to work with. Caroline handled everything that came her way in a complex case with an exceptional level of confidence and discernment. Her attention to detail, academic excellence, and commitment to her clients shined brightly from the beginning, and she sustained that level of promise to the end. Caroline delivered on all of her promises, was responsive in all of our communications, and came more than prepared to every meeting. She maintained utmost professionalism and poise in the courtroom and was always ten steps ahead of the opposing counsel. Whenever the situation called for it, she was as fierce as a lion on my behalf. Her closing arguments were on point; they deserved a standing ovation if not for the serious context of the case at hand. Any claims from opposing counsel were addressed and put to rest thanks to Caroline’s preparedness and noteworthy eloquence in speaking. As a result of her efforts, justice was served. Caroline is who you want by your side in a crises. I highly recommend her services to anyone who needs a criminal attorney.
My situation was horrible and spiraling all in a negative direction. In a big moment for myself, I decided to switch attorney & law firms. Lance rationally moved things in a direction that fairly got things done. He is calm, professional & spot on. If he is being baited towards confrontation he dilutes the scenario from escalating rationally & respectfully. All very important elements towards helping the topic or issue staying on point and reasonably litigated. Lance is the professionals of professionals. His sincerity to reaching fair results for the children’s behalf is exemplary. We as a family are still a family cause of Lance Nelson.
Brian did a great job representing our company. We had a unique case with some very grey areas involving privacy in today’s ever changing market. Brian was very thorough in his preparation and filings and he took the time to listen to come up with a strategy that best suited us.
I can honestly say that without Ms. Tiffany Shrenk! She is more than professional, she CARES!! In my case she went above and beyond my expectations. I couldn’t be more pleased with her help and kindnesses. Everyone I dealt with was wonderful and I can’t thank them enough.
I consulted Tim on two accidents that I was involved in. He took on both of my cases. He was upfront, honest, and involved in every aspect. We were able to settle both of my cases out of court. Everything was handled by him and his staff in a professional manner. They worked with me from long distance and made everything easy and smooth. I am eternally grateful for the kindness and generosity they showed me. I recommend Tim without reservation.
