Using Paul Nelson for my divorce was the best decision I made in the entire process. He is knowledgeable, tough, and does not back down. I first noticed Paul while at court for another matter. I liked the way he approached the judge and did not back down. He was considerate, but firm and backed by knowledge of the law that applied. Because of that, I followed him out of the courtroom and got his card. Divorce is terrible, but working with Paul helped me to achieve good results.

I absolutely love working with Paul and his associate Nicole. Nicole has spent hours working on my case and her attention to detail is amazing. She wrote my orders to show cause in such a professional manner, while getting all the important legal details across. She knows the law and it shows. When I saw the declaration that the opposing attorney wrote in comparison to Nicole's it was almost laughable. She is also very aware of dates that things are due, and on top of what is going on in your case. Paul is just awesome. If you were unfortunately married to a overbearing narcissist like I was, Paul will know just how to handle him in court. Paul is superb in the courtroom. He knows the law, and he knows what information is important to present. He doesn't get emotional and stays focused on getting the truth to come out. He is able to keep the mood light during a horrible process with his witty comments and comfortable demeanor. I also feel very secure in the courtroom because I know he has my back and he doesn't let opposing counsel badger me, which she repeatedly tries to do. Both Paul and Nicole are excellent at returning phone calls and emails, even if I just have a minor question. Hiring this firm was the best decision I could have made during this process.

Paul Nelson was very professional and informative prior to, during, and after handling my legal situation. I was grateful for his guidance, and communication throughout the process. Additionally, I appreciated his availability in answering any questions I may have had. More often than not, family legal situations can be very time consuming, frustrating, and lengthy. I am thankful that even in the midst of all the details, Paul Nelson, and his associates were notably helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and speedy in all actions and correspondence.

Paul Nelson and his staff took care of my concerns as if they were their own. Paul's knowledge of family law is strong and his experience in the court room is second to none. Paul's team made sure that every aspect of my case was handled expeditiously and they covered every legal point neccessary to make sure my needs were met with positive results. I highly recommend Paul Nelson and Associates.

I saw Paul in court in action. I had previously interviewed 3 other attorneys before hiring Paul. He provided me a realistic view of my case and an outline for his plan from the outset. He suggested that we set up a settlement meeting with my ex prior to court. We were able to settle a number of things at that time. Paul was very effective with the judge, the other attorney and the experts we had to hire in my case. I highly reccommend him.

Paul Nelson and his team were excellent. They were tough when they needed to be and willing to negotiate when that was appropriate. Paul handled my case beautifully. I am confident that others will find him to be one of the best family law attorneys in Southern California. I recommend him without hesitation.
