Deborah Nelson is the best attorney I have ever worked with. She provided guidance and support that was beneficial for winning the case. Doborah gets right to the point and clearly lays out all of the details, as well as communicates the specifics on my role in completing tasks pertinent for a successful outcome. She is an outstandingly smart attorney and a wonderful and caring person!

Deborah took on my case even though I lived in a city 3 hours away and was so honest, upfront, had excellent communications with me and helped me in a case that was life altering for me. I would highly recommend her to anyone that requires her legal services. There was not one thing Deborah failed to do for me. In fact she went out of her way to make sure I was taken care of and understood every aspect of the application process and made sure that I was awarded fairly. Thank You Deborah Nelson

3 years ago I was involved in an accident which left me with 2 broken arms and 2 broken legs. The Boyd Nelson team pulled together all the information needed for me to be able to at least get the funds that were available in a settlement and I am quite thankful. I would suggest them for their professionalism, quick response and follow-through

First let me say that I am a very kept to myself person. I don't like people knowing my business. I don't like talking about myself, especially to people I don't know.
After my injury and "things" not being resolved a friend put me in contact with Deborah. I was very nervous about even talking to her in the beginning. Each time I spoke with her I felt more comfortable and confident. She is very personable, compassionate and knowledgeable. I didn't have to worry about any of it and if I had a question she had the answer.
Very long story short Deborah and Jeff did an awesome job preparing for and in court. They will never fully know how much I appreciate them and the countless hours of work they did.
I hope to never need another lawyer but if I were to need one I wouldn't hesitate to call Deborah and Jeff.

Let me first state that my previous experiences with lawyers has been with divorce attorneys and has been a very negative experience . Because of this I had no interest in giving an attorney any share of money awarded to me when I was in a motorcycle accident in Reno where the other party was clearly at fault. I knew I couldn't get the same settlement an attoney could , however , I wouldn't have to choke up a third of it to a lawyer that didn't do much to earn it. I just needed the insurance company to deal in an upright and honest manner with a guy who wanted enough of a settlement to upgrade his motorcycle and maybe a couple thousand for pain and suffering . After 3 months of dealing with the insurance companies it became obvious that the whole lot of them were not being honest with me and trying their best to force me into a settlement.
Right off the bat after my initial Emergency Room visit no one would see me for follow up care. I have great health insurance (gov. Regence Blueshield ) They would pay nothing because it was an accident and someone else was liable. My insurance company (State Farm would pay nothing because PIP personal injury protection is not available on MCs . The at fault partie's insurance (Farmers) would pay nothing until the claim settled.I was finally able to get Regence to cover(lot of hassle) if I signed over a right of recovery form which enabled them to be 1st in line to recover their losses from the other party. I was already out of pocket several thousand dollars in fees , co-pays , and other uncovered and undocumented expenses and it looked like I was actually going to end this case several thosand dolllars in the whole rather than recovering my full expenses when My aunt suggested I try an attorney friend of hers .
Deborah Nelson and partner Jeff Boyd interviewed me and actually explained to me hoe my insurance coverage actually worked. I was informed of a lot of facts that were previously not disclosed to me. My underinsured motorist coverage is upposed to pay for my time loss from work and any pain and suffering award given me by a jury amongst other things.
To make a long story short , Deborah was able to take the case , even after I had provided a lot of information to the other insurance companies and even signed away some of my legal redress recovery, and obtain a sizable monetary recovery for me.
After taking the case Deborah dealt with all of the insurance contacts and other hassles. I was kept very well informed on the case proceedings and had access to Deborah via telephone and/or email as needed.
After the the case was over and the vehicle insurance companies had settled my claims , Deborah (receiving no additional funds) pursued my health insurance company to have them pay for a portion of my attorney fees getting me several more thousand dollars that I had not expected.
Basically I ended up with tens of thousands of dollars more than I was originally afterbecause the insurance companies would not deal with me in an open and forthright manner.
Thank you Deborah and Jeff

After contacting a disabling illness and losing the ability to work, I filed for disability benefits with my LTD insurance provider. After my claim was unfairly denied, I hired Deborah to handle the appeal. From the first meeting, I was impressed with her experience, intelligence, and compassion. She has a proven strategy for disability appeals using credible and respected medical and rehabilitation experts for evaluations and testimonies. Having Deborah manage the appeal was a huge relief; this allowed me to focus on my health care. She was tenacious, firm, and professional when dealing with the insurance company. Deborah provided timely and clear updates and always answered my many questions promptly. I know that it was in large part to her excellent work and perseverance that I received a favorable settlement.
I hope to never have another legal issue again, but if I do, Deborah will be the first person I call.

Deborah came into our case and was a great breath of fresh air, she was extremely knowledgable, kind compasionate and awsome at what she does. She was quick to get back with me with my questions how ever small or large they were. Was appropriate in the courtroom which you can tell she knows her way around in and should I ever need an attorney again will go straight to Deborah.

Deborah Nelson got me a surprisingly high settlement, considering the weakness of my case, and complications. She is one of those attorneys who are obviously very human, and yet tough and extremely competent. Bravo.

Upon finding myself the victim of a pedestrian accident involving a school bus company, I found I needed to secure an attorney. Deborah was recommended by a good friend of mine and she did not disappoint!
Aside from my own personal injuries and emotional stress I was dealing with as a direct result of the accident, I found myself in the midst of a bunch of legal drama that was dealt with professionally and efficiently by Deborah. I was allotted the time to take care of my own needs while she was the one that took care of the "details". As someone that has never had to use an attorney, it was a new and at times stressful situation to be in, and having Deborah at the helm was very reassuring! The results of my case more than met my expectations.
Not that I would wish my own situation on anyone, but if you need an attorney, Deborah is your top choice.
