    "Wade is someone who genuinely cares about his clients."
    Wade has been representing us for the last 2 years on 2 separate issues. One being a custody issue that has been emotionally and mentally exhausting and he has been supportive and great to work with. He has called to make sure I am okay and listens to my fears and concerns. Highly recommend. He is someone who genuinely cares about his clients.

    "Nick Gottwald is an amazing attorney!"
    Nick Gottwald is an amazing attorney! He is very professional and he always looked after my best interests! He always explained everything to me very thoroughly and I felt that I could trust him. His rate was reasonable and he never charged me anything extra. Everything was clear and transparent! He always responded in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Nick to other people!

    "Mark was empathetic and kind."
    Mark Nelson handled my divorce very professionally. I found him to be empathetic and kind. He offered me sound advice and went to bat for me, when needed. He was always responsive to my calls and reached out often with updates on my case. I was pleased with his service and highly recommend him as an attorney with integrity.

    "Wade Taylor was completely honest from the very beginning."
    Wade Taylor was completely honest about what my rights were from the very beginning and explained the entire process step by step. The other attorney for the other half, dragged her feet with EVERYTHING and played games the entire time. Mr. Taylor fully supported me walking out of mediation after HOURS of being there and finding out the other attorney was completely unprepared. The other attorney tried to blame Mr. Taylor for her not being prepared, but Mr. Taylor was able to prove he sent her the information MONTHS before mediation. Mr. Taylor also had another extremely knowledgeable and experienced attorney, Elenia Cozean at mediation with us. It was so reassuring to know just how supported I was not only by Mr. Wade, but also by the other attorneys in his office. I have already recommended Mr. Wade to several people in search of a great attorney and I will continue to do so!

    "Nick is very personable and friendly."
    I came to Nick Gottwald with a complicated case with my ex. I was wrongfully represented before Nick and my order was ridiculous. Anyways, Nick agreed to take on the case, He got some of the situation better for me and was willing to keep fighting as long as it took. I am grateful for his help and dedication to my case. He is very personable and friendly. I highly recommend Nick Gottwald if you need an attorney. Thank you for everything Nick!
