Our family is grateful for Chris's handling of our own "horrendous" evictions. I found Chris to be highly intelligent, his ability to "think out of the box for solutions was a great strength, coupled with his empathy resulted in positive solutions which helped both our family (landlord) and remaining tenants to find peace on our property.

My colleague Christopher Hook is one of the best attorneys I have ever met. He is knowledgeable, professional, and possesses one of the highest standards of integrity I have ever witnessed. I have hired him to represent me before, and if I ever need a great attorney for co-counsel or otherwise, I will hire him again. I wish I could give him 10 stars.

I have done work for Law Offices of Christopher G. Hook. His work that he has sent me has always been very complete and concise. He has always kept in close contact to see how the case is proceeding.

Chris is a fantastic lawyer. He not only advised me correctly on the details of my grandmother's estate but also and more importantly compassionately. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal expertise.

I was referred to Nick by another attorney. He has gotten me all that I asked for and more. He's a lot more than just my attorney he's become my friend. I'm not sure if he knows to what extent he has made life easier for me but he has. He may not always be available when I call but he always calls back and most importantly he's always right on time. Thanks Nick you are appreciated. De'Shante.....

After learning that my attorney could not represent me at trial earlier this month AND with just 3 days to hire another attorney or prepare to represent myself in a contested Domestic Violence Restraining Order trial, I was in a panic! I was up against my abusive ex boyfriend and his criminal defense attorney and all of the typical underhanded defense tactics. With very little time, money or resources and quite literally a shattered life and heart, I called Nicolas for help. Though I was unable to retain his services, much to my surprise, this did not stop Nicolas from providing me with excellent advice in my hour of need and ultimately empowering me to prevail at the hearing on many points. When I told Nicolas that I couldn't retain him...instead of our conversation ending there...he immediately began preparing me to represent myself at trial. Sharing insights about what to expect, advice on how to argue the points and most importantly he told me all of the relevant family codes that supported my claims. Were it not for his help that day, I would not have been prepared to recite the laws that supported my claims like i did. Not only did he increase my ability to intelligently argue the issues as a pro per and present my case to the judge, more importantly, his advice really helped me maintain my confidence level during the hearing and stay in control of my emotions. Quite an effective crash course Nicolas gave me. Really, I can't thank him enough!   Nicolas was very generous with his time in the 2 days leading up to my hearing. Which is another testament to his character and his commitment to help others...all traits you'd absolutely want in any attorney handling your case! I found Nicolas' attitude and willingness to help so refreshing. I appreciated how well he blended his skillful, aggressive approach to my situation with a youthful, energetic positivity that I needed at that time. My confidence in his ability to achieve maximum results for his clients skyrocketed because of his consistent, polished professionalism and warmth. I didn't wonder whether he cared about my case, or giving me the best, most honest advice...because it was evident in all of my personal interactions with him and with his staff. He's the first one I will turn to in the future and someone I look forward to referring others to.

I am a single Dad with two kids and have been divorced for five years. My ex-wife remarried and had a baby. Things ran relatively well until she quit her job and came after me for more money in child support as well as changes in our custody agreement. One would think this is not possible, but it is. Inevitably I had to pay more money. Fair or not, the law is the law. But thanks to Nick, it was half of it could have been and I essentially gained more time with my children. Nick walked me through the entire process with unwavering competence and we never stepped foot inside a courtroom. He was always upfront. Quick to return phone calls and emails with thorough and competent explanations that were easy to understand. I have recommended Nick to another close friend who has had great results as well, and I would highly recommend Nick to anyone else who required a family law expert.

Mr. Salick was very responsive and knowledgable during the course of my case. He worked in a timely manner and simplified everything. He was very easily to get in contact with. No question was left unanswered. He wasn't concerned with getting more money in his pocket. His main concern was making his client happy, and I feel he did just that.

Nick helped me through a very long and difficult divorce process. He heard my concerns regarding my specific challenges and worked with me for almost 3 years until we finally acomplished a settlement through mediation. My ex and I have an autistic child and Nick was willing to colaborate with a special needs attorney (who he now has a close working relationship with) to help figure out how to best serve our son in our case. Nick has a personal connection to special needs cases as he grew up with a brother who has challenges. This was apparent through most of our process and it did help a great deal while working through our case. Nick and I became professionally close throughout this process and I always knew that he would go to bat for me in court should it need to go there. He was equally supportive during the mediation process, regularly expressing that he would be very happy for us if we could negotiate and settle out of court. If I emailed him with an urgent header, he responded very quickly. There were a couple of times where he either had a full week in court or he had to go out of town that I wasn't able to get in touch with him as quickly as I would have liked. But I realize that he has a full client list and I get that he does need to leave to take breaks from his work. However, He has just partnered with someone and I think the expansion will eliviate that issue. The other positive aspects of our working relationship outweigh this one issue since he never left me hanging. I was always able to get in touch with him within a couple of days, even during the rare occasion that it wasn't quickly as I wanted. Going through a divorce is really difficult and everything can feel like an emergency when you are at odds with someone, So I get that it could be really difficult to be on call in this way to multiple clients when you are also in court. I hope this review is helpful, Nick is really a great attorney who saw it through to the end with us and our nuaced situation and I appreciate all of his hard work very much.

Nick Salick spent over $8000 in under two months and only gave me a box of useless papers that were copied in triplicate, of course he charged for each one and these were never used in court. He didn't return calls in a timely manner and overcharged for every phone call . He didn't explain anything. He left my case and the firm itself without letting us know. Worst experience during one of the hardest times of my life.
