I was a client of Nelissa Milfeld. I had a positive experience with Nelissa as she is a very professional, highly-skilled, well prepared and committed attorney that deals with the facts of the case. She has years of experience and brings a competitive attitude with a fierce desire to win.

Nelissa is an extraordinary attorney with professional experience that was absolutely critical in defending our case. She was extremely prepared at all times with facts, data and evidence that the opposing side simply could not match. She truly cared about the case and getting a just a fair result for us as people, not just clients. She is extremely well regarded by her peers and is highly effective.

Working with Nelissa Milfeld was incredibly helpful! The smartest move I made in dealing with a very difficult legal situation. Nelissa is experienced in her field as well as intelligent, articulate and intuitive. I highly recommend her.

I worked with Nelissa on a domestic violence case. She helped me get my primary goals of a deferred sentence and restraining order lifted. She was great to work with , was efficient and got results. I would highly recommend her

This was the first time I've ever needed to hire a lawyer. Nelissa is someone I've known for a few years through the climbing community and I immediately thought of her. She's got a heart of gold, is very thorough and confident in her abilities, and I couldn't recommend her more. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to work with her, despite the circumstances.

Nelissa is extremely capable and efficient. Her expertise significantly bettered the outcome of my case. She is compassionate and thorough and I highly recommend her.

I was fortunate to have hired her when she started at Dolan + Zimmerman because my past poor decisions resulted in my case having circumstances which easily justified being given the maximum possible sentence. From day one Nelissa’s knowledge of the law and excellent ability to communicate the situation enabled me to start different mitigation actions. During this time of uncertainty I was scared and had many questions. Nelissa would always respond quickly to email messages and would answer her phone. Nelissa provided encouragement and motivation for performing mitigation actions. Having seen hundreds of cases similar to mine as a public defender and knowing many people in the legal system coupled with her new career was advantageous. This allowed her to focus more of her time and resources on my case. My therapist stated when talking with Nelissa she felt Nelissa cares about the well being and rehabilitation of her clients as apposed to a lawyer just doing the day to day. For this alone I highly recommend Nelissa! Given the circumstance of my case I think I got the best possible sentencing.

Nelissa is a great lawyer with the experience and ability to handle any matter. I have no hesitation to refer any case to her.
