AMAZING law firm. Spencer and just team give you absolutely all of their effort. They are very communicative, honest, and caring. I have trusted Spencer with a more complicated than usual family law matter and have full faith in him. These are the folks you want on your side should you ever need legal counsel. He came highly recommended and has truly been a blessing. Don’t look any further for a family law attorney in Tarrant County. He is the best of the best.

I had previously hired another attorney back in 2016, but due to the uncooperativeness of the other party's attorney and my attorney's own personal demons, my case was dragged out for two years with zero progress. Then, I met Spencer back in April 2018. I explained to him the backstory of my case as it currently stood. My case was not an overly complicated case at all, as I was simply being denied my access for visitation. He made no promises, but did tell me that I did have good merit for a modification of the parent-child relationship, which is what I believed to be the case prior to meeting with him. If I'm not mistaken, the final trial in my case had been reset a total of 4 times over the course of my case before we officially had trial. After all these years, dating back from 2014 - 2022 (8 years), my case was so loaded with evidence, it was actually planned to have trial over the course of 2 days. Luckily, we were able to finish trial in 1 single day. While Spencer does represent both mothers and fathers, Spencer has a real passion for representing fathers and is an advocate for fathers' equal rights, this is one of the reasons I was drawn to hire Spencer. I knew that I did not make a mistake when choosing who I wanted in my corner. For those that think that simply having an attorney is the be-all and end-all, you couldn't be more wrong. You should be on top of your case just as much as your attorney is. Your case is as good as you make it out to be, an attorney can only do so much. I went to trial thinking that my case could go one of two ways. I figured in the best case scenario, I would be awarded 50/50 custody, worst case scenario, nothing would change (which is what is typically expected in the District Court I was in since the judge is traditional and old fashioned - which means "pro-mom"). To my surprise, the judge awarded me primary custody with everything additional that I asked for in my pleadings (effective 04/11/2022). Spencer is a fantastic attorney who actually gets the job done and takes pride in his work! There are many attorneys that practice Family Law, but in my opinion, I wouldn't consider most of them to be good "trial attorneys", whereas Spencer knows all of the ins-and-outs of trial, he knows what evidence should be presented and when, he knows exactly when to make an objection, and he can be extremely persuasive to not only the judge but the opposing party. I never had any issues with communicating with him or his office. I could not have asked for better representation! I know exactly who I will refer people to when a Family Law attorney is needed! Thank you so much for everything, Spencer!

Spencer handled a divorce for me. I was so impressed with the meticulous and determined manner in which he handled the case. The prior lawyer quit on us and didn't respond. Spencer stepped in and pushed the case forward and obtained an incredible result. Spencer fights for his clients until the end, then he fights some more. Because of his efforts, Spencer gained a client for life and I recommend him and his firm to everyone I know in need of a family law attorney.

I hired Spencer! He’s was very honest about the things in my case that we could change. Instead of wasting time and money on things that I couldn’t. Spencer and Jenny fought for me! I don’t regret hiring him at all!

Contacted Mr. Nilsson about representing my son in a custody case. Very happy with his professionalism. His office responds quickly if you have any questions or concerns. AAA+++++

As a father of 3 girls ages 3-12 Nilsson helped me get custodial. I am so happy when other lawyers pretty much laughed at me after getting served trying to find someone last minute Nilsson was there for me and even let me pay out the remaining balance since I couldn't afford all of it right there. I highly recommend Spencer Nilsson to anyone.

Spencer and crew have been great during the divorce process. Never having divorced before, I had lots of questions and concerns that were all answered and addressed quickly.

I struggled with divorce for years being strung along by my husband and his attorney and finally I meet with Mr. Nilsson. He talked with me about my options and what I needed to do to get the things over. Once Mr. Nilsson explained the process to me he took things over and made it easy. I should have went with Mr. Nilsson from the begging, I would suggest that anyone to sit and meet with him and they will see that he is the right choice to represent them.

Spencer and his team were great. He was realistic about my case, honest, and made every attempt to save me money and time. His advice paid off big-time for me in court. In the end, I gained everything that I asked for. His paralegal, Donna, was responsive and knowledgeable and his associate Stuart was helpful as well on the date of the hearing. I hope that I don't need these kinds of services again, but if I do I know who to call.

Spencer was knowledgeable, efficient, pleasant and made an astute honest observation regarding potential solutions with a focus on the most effective potential resolution versus what simply produced billable hours. Need a professional in every sense of the word? Then hire Spencer.
