        Months after an injury that just would not heal, I contacted Attorney Neil Nicholson, for some clarity and guidance. From our very first meeting I knew I had contacted the right person. Clarity about the process and honesty and integrity are what I got from Attorney Nicholson. He clearly explained the process, the options and what the litigation would be like. Both Attorney Nicholson and paralegal Brittany Donovan kept me up-to-date, patiently explained answers to my many questions, and responded quickly to all of my concerns. I would have considered all of that to have been enough and great service, but it didn’t stop there. In every communication with them, their sincere compassion and integrity shone through, and the peace of mind this gave me is what I feel makes them top-notch. I would not hesitate to recommend Attorney Neil Nicholson and his firm to family, friends or anyone needing legal representation. In my opinion, they are the best.

        Niel is simply one of the few attorneys that I truly believe works for the best interests of his clients and works diligently, faithfully, and competently. I have been glad to know him and anticipate many years ahead working as colleagues in the New Hampshire legal community.

        Neil is one of the best lawyers in the state. He is honest, practical, knowledgeable, and not afraid to try a case. He also understands the realities of litigation, cost-benefit approaches in hourly litigation, and the practical realities litigants face.

        I found Atty. Nicholson’s experience, advice and guidance to be key in successfully resolving my litigation issue. At every turn he clearly explained all my options and the pros and cons of each. He was very attentive to all matters concerning my case. The staff is excellent and supportive. I would engage him again should the need arise and do not hesitate to recommend him.
