I highly recommend Nicole McArthur , I was facing a criminal charge, that had my life at a stand still. She not only handled my case, She provided me with advice and counsel that resulted with my case being dismissed, in a matter of weeks, even during this pandemic. In addition, I never had to enter the courtroom. Words are not enough to express my gratitude. Thank you so much .

I would highly recommend Nicole if you are looking for an attorney. I can not thank her enough. The case was over and we end up running into a few problems afterwards. But she went above and beyond to still help me. Some attorneys wouldn’t call you back, but she did!!! I didn’t have to keep calling her office. Her secretary was very helpful and made sure she received my message, and I heard from her the same day. She told me exactly what I needed to do and she did exactly what she had promised.

I cannot recommend Nicole enough! I had debated hiring an attorney, because it was a traffic violation and seemed minor, but I am so glad I did. She was able to get access to information I couldn't, which proved my case. She is a true and dedicated professional!

When I first started lookin for an attorney to represent me I had many choices and referrals from just about everyone, I was very fortunate to find Nicole. She was very organized and quite informative as to my situation, and through the months as my case made its way through the system she was always there with updates and proactive steps that I could take to help my case. I felt like I had someone on my team from beginning to end, I feel very confident recommending her to anyone.
