Tina and Tim have both spent a lot of time on my case. They have been extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and supportive. Not everyone can handle their honesty and approach, but they get stuff done. And they do it with expertise and passion for getting the job done. Excellent petition writing, filing, court appearance (virtual and in-person), thorough, and just a hardcore practice that works as a team and accomplishes a lot. Highly recommend for support orders, divorce, and custody cases.

Horrible person. Posting on Facebook that she will dispose of anyone's cat that gets in her yard. Her words.

Heather is a blazing hot attorney and John Spring goes above and beyond even when court appointed. They make a great team and provide an exemplary service. In my opinion they both deserve 6 stars. They're incendiary in the court room.

This lawyer is one of the worst in the business. Get yourself a real lawyer. John Spring is just like his God-aweful mentor John Murphy, in that they are both frauds, and will just take your money. I should never have allowed a former family member of mine to hire them for MY father's estate. Avoid them at all costs, and if you already hired them, then fire them! They will probably try to charge me for this review, since they charge you for everything, even phone calls that THEY make to you. If I had the resources back then, that I have now, I would have dragged these scammers into court, to get my family's money back. These people are not even qualified to handle traffic tickets, let alone anything actually important. I'd refer to this "lawyer" as an ambulance chaser, but that would imply that they actually do something.

Had high hopes when I got Heather Nichols as a lawyer. But that turned out to be a big mistake. I had Heather as my lawyer for 6+ months and I had nothing taken care of that whole time and getting in contact with anyone was close to impossible. Out of all the times I tried getting ahold of her or her secretary over these 6+ months, I was only answered a hand full of times. After playing the waiting game forever and then finding out that she keeps all of her clients files on an outside porch in a filing cabinet covered with a tarp (because she has no office)... I decided to get a new lawyer. (Who took care of everything and got it done within a month) Heather was the most unprofessional lawyer I have ever used and I would recommend her to absolutely NO ONE. Save yourself the money and look else where. When I asked for my money back (since nothing was done this whole time) she sent me an invoice where it showed out of the 6+ months all she had done was send a few lousy emails and made 1 single phone call. Which apparently cost me $300. And to even get my remaining retainer from her was like pulling teeth. When she did finally decide to answer me, she told me that it was mailed to my new attorney on the 6th.. My attorney never even received it until the 20th and when Heather did answer me about it (surprisingly) she said it was hand delivered which made no sense since she already said it was mailed on the 6th. Unless you enjoy paying for a lawyer and then waiting weeks on end for replies, and months to just have a few emails and 1 call made... DO NOT USE HER. I will NEVER recommend her to anyone. When I say she was unprofessional, I truly mean it.
