Nelson Boyd Attorneys represented me in a bicycle crash and did an excellent job. They are a caring, professional team, where I got the benefit of them both working on my case together. Each brought their individual strengths to my representation.
As much as a legal intervention is an inherently stressful undertaking, Nelson Boyd made the experience as low-stress as possible. They did this by being good listeners, providing assurances that they were fighting for me, providing prompt and excellent communications, and always doing what they said they would do.
My suit was settled satisfactorily (they worked on contingency) prior to reaching court, which was preferable since it took nearly two years to get to that point-- though not due to any fault of Nelson Boyd. Going to court would likely have taken another six months or longer. My case involved personal injury and I would highly recommend this team to anyone needing this sort of representation -- and probably other issues, as well. At minimum, it will be worth your while to call them to discuss your problem.

Highly recommended legal team for personal injury--especially cycling-related--based on their diligence and expertise. Outcome far exceeded expectations.

Update ::7/24::Well I really just wanted to make another review, excuse we have honestly used the services Deborah and Jeff a couple more to times.
All I can say is how prompt they are, the knowledge is impeccable, and the skills they need to show off their talents.
Well… I have ALWAYS been beyond thankful to have these two EXPERIENCED EXPERTS ON OUR SIDE.
THANK YOU…. FROM THW BOTTOM of our toes to the tip of our heads.
If any of you want to know what’s good for you ??put them on your team. You will not regret it.

This is hands down the best team and office I have to say. I used this law firm in 2006 when my 20 year old son passed away, and this TEAM went to bat for our family far and beyond our imagination with their knowledge and research to WIN our case favorably.
I have again come back to use this law firm again recently, when I was rear ended while sitting at a stop sign. Once again Deborah and her team put together another favorable outcome in our favor.
These are the most caring attorneys with a back bone to go get it done. They have knowledge and the drive to go to bat for you. I would NEVER go to anyone else for ANY legal matters.

Leslie is strategic, honest and incredibly hard working. To say that she will stand by your side is an understatement, she will step in front of a team of opposing counsel and defend her client and her client’s rights. My case was a mess, I had gone through 3 lawyers (one who claimed, to be one of the best lawyers in Western Washington and from the largest divorce firm in the city, his representation and work was atrocious) looking for someone who would look deep and hard at the facts and I finally found that in Leslie. Leslie did a wonderful job representing me through the case and trail. The custody for my divorce was a mess where my ex had nearly unlimited funds, a team of lawyers who were constantly stirring up trouble. My ex who was struggling with intense emotional issues that got scary. I didn’t have unlimited funds and only wanted what was fair. I wanted what I earned financially to go to the kids and protection for the them while their father received the treatment. Leslie knows the law, she knows real estate, she knows business valuations, she knows how stock works with vesting schedules, she knows how taxes work in divorce, she knows how to structure an unambiguous custody agreement, so in high conflict situations the parties don’t end up in mediation every six months. She explained the tradeoffs and strategies we had to get through, the process and helped me be clearly informed on what my choices were. With her guidance we made the right decisions as a team. She always took the high road and was results driven, it paid off in SOO many ways.
My case was an international case where my husbands’ assets were hidden overseas, and Leslie worked tirelessly to make sure we represented the factual picture. If my ex and his legal team hadn’t refused to be even remotely reasonable, we could have settled without going to trial but that wasn’t the case. We had to go to trial and my goodness, the difference between a good trial attorney like Leslie was clear! She was able to get a substantial award in attorney fees and exactly what I needed. She pushed me to be reasonable and it paid off, in hindsight this was one of the best things that I did in my case and without having so much trust in Leslie the results might not have been the same! It was extremely hard to achieve these results; I never gave up and neither did she. I would recommend her to anyone and would put my name behind her as the best attorney I have ever met (and I work for one of the large tech firms in a legal division). Family court is hard, not having an attorney who is skilled in so many different subjects can result in a less than favorable result. Leslie was laser focused in trial, efficient, she and I were our little two-person team and she was worth well beyond EVERY DOLLAR she earned in representing me. On a personal note, she cared about what was happening to me and was the strength I needed to stand up for my rights and my kids. Actions speak louder than words and having an honorable hard-working attorney who takes the high-road pays off. Leslie never made promises she couldn’t keep but instead explained the situation and how the law looks at things, how courts work. Where all my previous representation promised they would get the harassment to stop and protect us it would take months of me begging for help before they would even draft letters to opposing council to ask for him to stop his behavior. Leslie filed motions to mediate nearly immediately on a time sensitive issue to protect my daughter and action is clearly something she is great at.

Deborah and Jeff are by far the most amazing attorneys in Seattle! I cannot thank them enough for the time, patience, care, and attention they put into my case. I actually had another attorney who ended up quitting on me after months of wasting my time because he accepted a job somewhere else. I was so scared and nervous about what would happen to my case. I walked into their office and all of that fear melted away. They took over my case and handled every single thing that came our way with such grace and professionalism. They fought for me until the very end and my case settled for more than I could ask for. Jeff and Deborah changed my life and are now a part of my family. If you are looking for a personal injury attorney Deborah and Jeff are the only ones you should be going to. I cannot thank them enough.

Love this team!
From day one they were on top of every aspect. Filings, documents, discovery.... It made it easier to start the healing, not having to worry about the legal aspect of all this. Very professional and assertive
towards getting a positive resolution for me.
Deborah, Jeff, and the entire staff were a pleasure to work with and I'm honored to call them friends.
If there is a way to help you, they will give it full measure!

I am delighted to provide an endorsement of the attorneys and staff of Nelson Boyd. My experience with this firm was sterling from the beginning to its most successful end. Nelson Boyd exhibited the highest degrees of professionalism and compassion. Their knowledge of personal injury and insurance law is exemplary, and they applied their expertise with fantastic clarity and effectiveness. Most importantly, my case was handled with empathy, and I was treated with the utmost respect. You will find the same. Thank you, Nelson Boyd!

This is a very spammy law firm. If you leave a question on their contact form it immediately goes to a call center. Within an hour I was called six times by strangers who were not associated with the law firm but were "intake professionals". There was nothing professional about them, just call center workers with heavy accents. This continued through the night and into the next day. So far I'm up to 14 calls/voicemails. And it turns out this law firm does NOT do disability claims, only very specific claims where the disabled person purchased their own separate insurance and are filing a claim against that. So unless you want endless phone calls at all hours of the night, avoid these people. Extremely unprofessional. If you doubt how unprofessional they are, look at the way they responded to their POSITIVE feedback, recounting intimate details of their client's very personal stories. Callous and unethical, in my opinion.

It is with great privilege that I give Nelson and Boyd, especially Deborah Nelson, the highest stars possible for their character and representation. What started out as a traumatic personal injury nightmare for me has concluded with “no stone has gone un-turned” in an effort to secure me the highest possible award, compensation and eventual closure.
Nelson and Boyd are extremely good people, and went above and beyond in my expectations in personal injury representation. They are dedicated, persistent and great listeners. In addition to their legal expertise, their wealth of medical and workplace knowledge, they facilitated referrals to medical specialists, i.e. neurologist, physiatrist and orthopedic surgeons right away for accurate diagnosis and treatment of my TBI, ankle fracture and multiple trauma that my local emergency department, hospital and physicians had missed.
They assisted me with in obtaining long term disability through my employer, social security disability, compassionate care for unpaid medical bills, plus the maximum amount of PIP medical, wage loss, and liability from the insurance policies available to me. They were patient and kind throughout the duration of my complicated case, communicated exceptionally well and promptly, have tremendous support staff, and held my utmost trust in them for a successful outcome. I highly recommend Nelson and Boyd, with no doubts to anyone reading this review.
