I was here reviewing my current lawyer, and thought “why not leave my first lawyer a review”?
Nick got me everything I needed in my initial divorce petition and temporary orders. Even majority custody of my children due to DV which was amazing.
His downfall - Not wanting/ability to withstand a long holding case. *Important for people in my DV similar circumstance*
Once my temporary divorce orders passed, he did not want to continue the case because in his words allegedly over a phone call “If your ex is the abuser you claim him to be and his family has money, I’d feel guilty taking any more money from you because your ex will not relent”. - which is valid, but not comital.
Detrimental to anyone experiencing relentless Domestic Violence.
Note: He DID cover a extra hearing he wasn’t required to under our contract. - This leaves me believing there was a miscommunication between expertise and compensation. I didn't understand that at the time. I wish he was more transparent. He could’ve billed me and I’d have paid him.
Then over a phone call told me it’d cost be $15,000.00 upfront to deal with someone like my ex husband. That was saddening.
Where did that leave me? Having to find another attorney to learn my details. Finding another attorney who understood that amount was unrealistic (for myself) upfront.
He was also hesitant in believing my domestic violence claims. Which is already hard as a survivor and not something you need extra from your lawyer.
Nick did get confused on travel dates I had (I mentioned to him at least 3 times) which caused me to have to purchase extra tickets to return for a child exchange. He blamed me for not reminding him prior to the hearing - but he knew I had mentioned it in general. He generously offered to pay for return tickets acknowledging it was his mistake. This was extra gracious of him.
But if you’re needing a long-standing attorney - who isn’t just in it for the wam and bam, this might make practice questionable. Only leaving my open opinion here for those in a situation similar to mine and looking for long-standing representation.
He did amazing law wise is good hearted. But maybe not so much for my extensive needs and being transparent. Which is critical in a relentless DV case like mine. Now I’m happily continuously paying a different attorney. No billing confusion and they’ve learned my details since the beginning of my case. Like everything in life trial and error - not all (people) attorneys are for everyone and that’s totally okay. Nick was great but it didn’t match

I had an Anti-Harassment Petition against me with Cyberstalking allegations. Nicholas Wood successfully defended my case and was not afraid to call out the fabrications told by the petitioner. Nick was willing to work around my busy schedule by working on Sundays and nights.

Very helpful and understanding lawyer, honest and very responsive. Takes his time to listen to your case and gives you the best advice based on his knowledge. He goes the extra mile in the proper legal way to defend your rights.

After consulting with Mr. Wood about a civil litigation matter; I would highly recommend him to others due to his professionalism and attention to the details in my case. He was quickly able to focus in on the main issues and craft a strategy that I believe will help successfully resolve my case.

I interviewed many lawyers before I found Nicholas Wood. Nick is a pit-bull with a huge heart. He's sharp, very knowledgeable, and knows exactly what he's doing. I trust Nick with my safety and the safety of my children and he has not let me down. He always kept me well informed and was available when I needed him. I HIGHLY recommend Nick to anyone who needs an outstanding lawyer.

Nicholas Woods is an amazing attorney. He believed in me and went above and beyond to help me achieve my goals in my civil case. He constantly puts in maximum effort and gets straight to the point to come out with the most desirable conclusions. Not only do I recommend this attorney but I will use him again in future

I would strongly recommend the Law Office of Nicholas Wood. I met with Nick for a consultation before a divorce. He also helped me through the temporary orders process and settlement. I would recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice or representation because he is knowledgeable and took the time to understand my case. I was always able to get a response from him and he met with me outside of normal business hours.

Nick was great! He met with me quickly and was the only person to help me get access to my kids after I had been alienated from them for over a year. He helped me hire on a new counselor to my case so that I could see my kids. The judge actually listened to what he had to say and agreed that there was some alienation. Nick was very reasonable on cost! He did a great job at making me feel like I wasn't just throwing money away and that he actually cared about whether or not I got my kids! He's a great lawyer and I'd hire him again for any other problem.

One of our friends was arrested and Nick Wood immediately helped facilitate the process of getting him released amongst other things. He took evening time away from his family to ensure everything went smoothly and was very responsive. I'd hire Nick again in a heartbeat.
