I contacted the Nieves Law Firm for representation. From the start they were helpful and attentive to my needs. They provided a team of attorneys and paralegals to assist me in my case. I had full faith in their services, and it proved to be true. I did not feel judged and instead was reassured throughout the process. I completely recommend this firm for all legal matters. I am satisfied with the timeliness of the resolution and thankful that I can move forward from this.

I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to Grace and the entire team for the outstanding support and professional handling of my DVRO case.Receiving the news that the petition was granted for 3 years brought immense relief and peace of mind. Grace’s dedication and expertise truly made a difference, and I couldnt be more grateful for the positive outcome. Her attention to detail and diligence in handling every aspect of the case were exemplary.Thank you once again for your unwavering support and guidance.

Nieves Law Firm proved exceptional from start to finish, guiding me through the most nerve-wracking moments of my life during a 2.5-year ordeal within the justice system. Their professionalism was consistently remarkable. Nadias expertise was truly invaluable; I cant express how grateful I am for their assistance.

If you want a team that pays attention to detail and truly cares about you, you have come across the right firm. This firm has systems in place to ensure your case is being taken care of at all times. Highly recommend Jo-Anna and her legal team.

“I highly recommend The Nieves Law Firm for its exceptional legal expertise and dedication to client satisfaction. With its great team, clients can rest assured knowing they are in the hands of true professionals that will work tirelessly to help them get the outcome they desire.”

Ive worked with the Nieves Law Firm for close to a year and can say that they are a group that truly cares about justice and the law. People make mistakes and get tangled up in circumstances that they didnt intend. One bad decision, or being in the wrong place at the wrong time can have long term impacts on lives of those caught up in the criminal justice system. The team at Nieves never sees their clients as criminals. They are professionals who work hard to restore a persons dignity and respectability.Think about how you want to be treated by your attorney for the money you pay them. Do you want to save a few bucks to be treated like just another criminal, or do you want to invest in your freedom and get a great outcome in your case? Call Nieves to be treated right.

Jo-Anna and Grace are absolutely incredible. Their professionalism, expertise, and compassion were instrumental in achieving the best possible outcome in a horrible situation and providing me with the support and guidance I needed during a challenging time. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of skilled and compassionate legal representation.

My experience with The Nieves Law firm is amazing. Best part no false hope or promise they do. Attorney Jose Gonzalez is so knowledgeable person, His presentation to judge is speechless. I got permanent restraining order on very first date . His efforts, law ruling study is excellent. Their whole team is very professional and reachable and above all Attorney Jo Anna herself keep eye on every case and it seems before submission of final arguments they discuss each and every point with their seniors in team . They truly deserve 5 stars.

Hired them for my restraining order. They are all so attentive and professional and know their business. I highly recommend obtaining their services for your civil needs. You will not go wrong with these folks. Here we are several months down the road, and The Nieves Law firm continued to help me, not just send me a bill. They even helped me recover the fees that were extremely reasonable considering all that work they put in for me. Thank you The Nieves Law firm.

The Nieves Law firm was able to clear charges for a family member’s case that was 20 years old. They took the time to investigate and bring knowledge to an old case that was wrongfully charged. Thank you for helping clear her criminal record.

From start to finish, my experience with The Nieves Law Firm was nothing short of exceptional. Nadias warm welcome and efficiency during the intake process reassured me that I was in the right hands. As for Grace Goodman, her legal knowledge and expertise were evident in every interaction, ensuring that I felt informed and confident in the decisions being made. Beyond their evident skill, its clear that this firm is built on a foundation of genuine care and consideration for their clients. A truly top-notch team!

I am a fellow attorney in the community. I have known Jo-Anna Nieves for more than a decade now, having worked with her previously. I think highly of her hard and soft skills - from experience handling high stakes cases in court to helping clients with making difficult decisions behind the scenes, Jo-Anna is a dynamic criminal defense attorney. I have personally trusted a few loved ones to consult with Jo-Anna.I have worked with a few of her attorneys on cases in common. I was able to work collaboratively with them to make sure our plan for our client would be executed in lockstep. Their attorneys are well-known and respected in the community.I have also gotten to know a number of her employees too. Everyone at her firm is prompt, knowledgeable, and sharp. I know that when I refer cases to Nieves Law Firm, the potential client will be met with empathy and direction.

I am giving this firm 2 stars because the lawyer assigned to our case dressed well, was nice, and cared enough about his family to go out of the country when a family member died. The rest of the firm is garbage.The measure of great service is not what you do when things go well, but how you react when they go poorly and the lengths your company will go to to make an upset customer feel heard. The five-star service advertised by The Nieves Law Firm is VERY far from it.My advice to potential customers of this firm is this: ask them at least 3 times in 3 different ways what a realistic outcome for your case is. Sometimes the best answer is, sorry, we probably cant do much for you, the county court doesnt allow lawyers to participate in a meaningful way to civil harassment cases, and Oakland will only enforce restraining orders if the person doing the harassment is violent.Instead their response was essentially give us $7000 and things will probably work out. They didnt. The harassment got worse. When we reached out to them again for help, they demanded $10,000 more to go to court for contempt proceedings, an outcome they made no effort to inform us of as a possibility ahead of time. Worse, I might have asked them at some point, but simply ASKING A QUESTION, no matter how short of an answer is required cost at least $40.I have read other negative reviews on here, and seen a pattern: all negative reviews are met with hostility, not acknowledgment and reassurance that they will work to improve in the future. I hope you enjoy my $7000 Ms Nieves. I cant say I enjoyed the $10,000 in lost income from court dates that would never have occurred if youd just been honest with us from the start. Nor am I enjoying the $8000 in moving expenses to get away from a neighbor who you failed to provide any protection from. Nor did we enjoy the stress from having to get her and her homophobic and racist son served since you refused to provide competent help in serving them or even better advice than just get a friend to do it. Nor did I enjoy the hostile response to criticism when we informed you of how deeply disappointing, and damaging financially and emotionally your poor service was. Not will I enjoy the bankruptcy court that is now the most likely outcome for me from the above expenses and lack of support in a critical time for me. Nor have I enjoyed the damage to my little remaining self confidence when I couldnt even hire a competent lawyer to get a simple restraining order with overwhelming evidence of abuse on the part of the respondents granted. It is entirely my fault for believing the phony 5 star reviews.UPDATE:I am changing the rating to one star because of your response Ms. Nieves. To be clear, my primary issue with your firm was your honesty about possible outcomes of the case, which lead to us wasting what little money we had instead of just moving. I fully understand that no outcome is guaranteed, I’m not stupid as you seem to think all your clients are. I’m just gullible enough to think that you actually cared about the outcome of my case and would provide helpful advice instead of throwing us to the wolves.A 5-star customer service response would be more like this: I’m sorry your experience with our firm was not as you expected or hoped. We strive for the best service possible, but are not always successful. If you would feel comfortable sharing more with me about your experience and how we could improve it, here is how you can contact me directly.No business has perfect reviews, and no business always has the best outcome. Good business admit and learn from their mistakes, and listen to their customers when they are upset. You have to be able to empathize with your customers even when you don’t think their negative response is appropriate. If you can’t do this, you have no business in a customer service related field.

I worked with this firm and it was the best decision that I made… the whole team is so professional, I had excellent communication from the entire staff and they even negotiated a good price for me so definitely top tier!

The Nieves Law firm was a great choice in helping me through my restraining order case, the whole team there does a great job at walking you through the steps of the legal process. I was the defendant in my case and my attorney jose Gonzalez helped me secure a wining ruling in my favor along with wining an attorney’s fee motion. Jose is a great lawyer and is good at what he does, in court he really shines and is able to debate the case very well and professionally. I would definitely pick them again if I had to!

No words can express how satisfied we are with the legal defense that Grace and the Nieves Law Firm provided to my family and me. Unbeatable.In addition to the great legal defense, Grace treated my family and me in a unique way, alleviating our frustration.The Nieves Law Firm is exceptional. I am amazed of how efficient all their staff is. I never had to leave a voice message when I called because a person would always answer the phone and an Attorney was always available if Grace was out of the office. They are well staffed.I could keep writing about the incredible representation and the awesome customer service that we received…But I’m just going to finish off by saying:They are dedicated and their service is unbeatable. I highly recommend the Nieves Law Firm and Grace.Thank you very much!From: Monica, Sam and our kids.

Today the obstacle that seems impossible to overcome, has finally ended. It’s been a long journey and I never thought that I would see these day to happen. But with faith and by the grace of God, it did. Attorney Bowie did an awesome job representing me with this case. She help and provided me everything that is needed to deliver the result that I expected. Very knowledgeable and capable to win the case! I will highly recommend this law firm to any one that needs help with the same case that I have. Thank you!

Thank you to the whole Nieves legal team, especially to my attorney, Mari Bowie, for being so supportive, helpful, and professional to me and my family in these hard times in my life. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a law firm that actually looks at you as a human-being first and cares about your well-being.

No one ever wants to ever find themselves needing a defense attorney. But if you do end up needing a defense attorney, you definitely want….. Well, lets just say this; you dont take a knife to a gunfight. You take a laser guided missile.I found myself requiring counsel when one the two harassers who had been harassing my girlfriend and I for over a year took her terror tactics too far.My girlfriend and I were in court one day on the matter of a restaining order and were both very impressed by an attorney who was vigorously representing her client who was being harassed.Her name is Grace Goodman. We watched as Grace successfully argued against opposing counsels requests for motions and time. My partner and I looked at one another and we agreed that we had to speak with her.It was the best decision. We spoke outside of the courtroom for a bit. a phone call and a visit later and Grace Goodman was representing me in my harassment case. The end result was getting my harassers retaliatory request for a TRO thrown out, have my request to a stay away order against my harasser granted and recoup my attorneys fees. ✅…..✅….and ✅.Hey, Grace! Thank you very much for your hard work and professionalism. You were inspiring to watch. I so respect a person who fights for what they believe is right and won’t…can’t back down. Give Grace Goodman and the Nieves Lawfirm a call if you find yourself dealing with something similar to my nightmare. Thank you for taking care of my little family and I, Grace.

Thank you to the Nieves Law Firm for providing me valuable advice that positively impacted the outcome of our situation. Jo-Anna and Nadia took time to explain the different procedures and helped me better understand what to expect in our legal matter. Out of all the attorneys I talked to, Jo-Anna was super responsive and demonstrated in-depth knowledge of the law. She did this better than anyone I consulted with.I appreciate how attentive and genuine Nadia was in following up throughout the entire process. She really had our family’s best interest at heart. We highly recommend the Neives Law Firm.

I highly recommend the Nieves Law Firm! They were my last hope to help my father with a case that was 20+ years old.

Jo-Anna and her team at the Nieves Law Firm are fantastic! Punctual, knowledgeable and hard working, Joanna has literally helped to make a dream become a reality.With very serious charges hanging over my head for close to 20 years, it was time to clear my name. To apply for (and receive) a Certificate of Rehabilitation is no small task, but Jo-Anna proved that she and her staff were more than able and willing to assist me. At every step of the process she was prepared and informed, and at those times when I had questions or concerns she promptly handled or addressed those concerns, making for a comfortable and trusting environment.I could not be more pleased with the service the Nieves Law Firm has provided to me. I am eternally grateful for their helping restore my dignity and quality of life.Thank you, Jo-Anna and Team!!!

On June 26, 2018 I was in a horrific car accident. Dealing with major trauma, fear of driving and excruciating pain I now needed to hire an attorney. I reached out to Jo-Anna and her incredible firm. Since Ive never had to hire an attorney before, I didnt fully understand that I needed and injury attorney. Jo-Anna just didnt turn me away like others, she gave me a few amazing referrals and one of them I actually hired. I was also not getting the help I needed from the DA regarding the criminal charges and it started adding to my anxiety. I again reached out to Jo-Anna and she took the time to look up the correct criminal charges and gave me codes so I can go back to the DA. It was because of her that charges were brought against the guy that hit me. In all honesty the DA wanted me to thank her because one of the charges he didnt even think of! This firm has incredible people and Im so thankful Jo-Anna cared so much for my situation because she didnt have to help me!

The Nieves Law Firm helped me through an extremely difficult time in my life. Jimarielle Bowie represented me with professionalism and empathy, and made me feel like she understood everything I needed to be done. And she did just that. The billing was extremely reasonable and I definitely got my moneys worth. I hope I never need their services again, but if I do I know where to go.

Nadia at the Nieves Law Firm was very helpful and compassionate. I was considering switching to them from another firm, but I was assigned to a different lawyer at the original firm, and decided to stick with them. Nadia checked on me a couple times just to make sure I was doing okay. She let me know if I ever need help again contact them because they want to help me and my son in any way they can. I really appreciated that, and actually I do need help again, so they were the first firm I contacted!

Review №34

2021-05-17 20:20:01

Our reason for hiring the Nieves Law Firm was not a fun situation, but from the very first phone call to the last communication, they put our concerns to rest. Nadia was our first contact and she assured us that our case would be handled with the greatest of care. Grace Goodman was our attorney and we cannot say enough about her confidence, poise and professionalism. She was ALWAYS there to answer our questions (and we had a lot of them). She was always there to help ease our concerns. Jo-Anna Nieves even joined us and our attorney on our day in court.Hopefully, we will never have reason to use them again, but if we do, they will be the first phone call we will make!

The Nieves Law Firm is the best choice for anyone with a pending criminal case or concern. In my experience referring clients to them and seeing their work, I’m impressed by the way they support and counsel their clients. Firm owner and principal attorney Jo-Anna Nieves always puts her clients’ interests first, and her staff maintains this focus on client care.Jo-Anna is also an expert in post-conviction relief. This includes expungement, motions to vacate, plea withdrawal, and other forms of relief. With her years of experience and knowledge in this specialized area of criminal law, she helps clients clear their records and get a fresh start.I highly recommend the Nieves Law Firm.

I had a great experience with The Nieves Law Firm. Roxane Farmer was the attorney assigned to my case and made me feel comfortable and confident during a very difficult time. I hope to never use her services again - but if I need them, I will not hesitate to pick this firm over all others. This team of lawyers and staff did everything they could to help me, and did it well. The legal process is difficult to begin with - but having a strong team, with a very human and highly skilled attorney helping me through was something I was afraid I would not find.

I called The Nieves Law Firm seeking an attorney for Probate Court abuse issues. Though, it was not the area of law they practice, their Legal Administrative Asst. Nadia was more than cordial and professional. Usually, office personnel rush you off of the phone, but not The Nieves Law Firm. They even followed up with an email. Now thats Customer Service. Thank you for treating me with integrity and respect....its rare these days. May your firm prosper abundantly! Blessings!

Im at a loss for words to express how grateful I am for the Nieves Law Firm (for me thats very rare😉)! They gave me my life back and made it a thoughtless stress free process. Stephanie and their team are true Rockstars at what they do. The day I found out that my record was expunged was one of the most freeing happiest days of my life. They are simply THE BEST!!!!! LIFE CHANGING FOR SURE!!! Do yourself a favor, and choose the Nieves Law Firm and take your life back!

I am so thankful to find Jo-Anna & her office. I must have contacted a dozen attorneys and could not find assistance. I was not a defendant in a case but the plaintiff. She was still willing to help me with my case. She was extremely responsive and kept me informed every step of the way. Her decisions were always in my best interest. I would defiantly recommend Nieves Law Firm.

Jo-Anna stands out as a caring and compassionate person among the lawyer profession.I was referred to Jo-Anna during some of the hardest times in my life and hired her. She went above and beyond to accommodate my needs.I dont expect anyone to do anything for free, and lawyers arent generally an affordable service. I was impressed by the care Jo-Anna showed for her client and the effort she put into the case. I am forever indebted, as is my family.Since then she has founded the Nieves Law Firm and surrounded herself with a team of distinguished professionals, a sign of true leadership in the community.Thank you!

First of all I would like to thank Jo-Anna and the whole Nieves Law Firm. Jo-Anna is a very professional, informational, and intelligent woman. Jo-Anna and I made a deal regarding fees, and she stuck by her word even though the trial went on longer than expected. Jo-Anna was very well prepared, and genuinely cared to get me what I wanted. The results from court were everything i asked for. Jo-Annas two paralegals, Monique and Ebony, were also fantastic and very helpful! Even couple weeks after my case was closed, they took the time to answer my questions and email my docs to appropriate people with detailed explanation. I would definitely use and highly recommend Nieves Law Firm. Thanks again for all your help, you guys are awesome!

Situations happen when you might feel lost overwhelmed stressed out all of the above And now you find yourself having to look for representation someone, that’s gonna value you, and your side of the story a person that can advocate strongly as well as break down a realistic point of view thankfully I was referred to Ms.Martina Avalos. She was really able to help me understand my case made it simple to see both sides of the story and really made the whole process easy and confident threw out the entire time. I was thankful to have met someone that took my case seriously and personally not just another number. Her devotion and experience goes hand in hand witch really help’s especially under the circumstance..nice to know there’s a light at the end of the tunnel and expressing the steps to get there.all in all I’m thankful and I hope you can be too..thank you again..

The Nieves Law Firm is a firm that cares about the people they represent and goes above and beyond for their clients. They helped me understand the process and got me the results I needed. Tori represented myself and my company and she operated with true class and professionalism from beginning to end. I appreciate everyone in the NLF for there help.

I was being held down from being able to succeed in life because of a Marijuana Felony I got charged with almost ten years ago. I “served my time” and paid all my fines and fees, but for years after my criminal record was keeping me from jobs, and being able to rent an apartment on my own. The Nieves Law Firm took the wheel and handled my case professionally, and in a timely matter. Throughout the process I slept soundly knowing that they were handling my case, and that they would bring back the freedoms I had taken away from me. They kept me updated throughout the process, shared documents with me along the way, and despite going through this during COVID times, they couldn’t have made it easier. I was able to work out a payment plan with them which was a big plus, making high quality representation attainable. I could not recommend them more!

I want to say that my attorney Stephani Prieto was excellent. She was incredibly thorough and knowledgeable. She really made me feel comfortable and at ease every time I spoke to her. She really cares about her clients. Hopefully I will never need an attorney in the future, but if I do, Stephani will be my first call.

I had gone through two other attorneys before I decided to hire the Nieves Law Firm and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. They were compassionate and understanding of my needs and were able to help me resolve my matters at a fraction of the cost that I would’ve spent on other attorneys. My matters were extremely stressful and Chelsie was able to put me at ease on many occasions. When my case was finally over, I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders. Thank you Chelsie, Joanna and team for helping me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I wouldn’t have been able to do this on my own.

Working with Jo-Anna Nieves and her team was a wonderfully empowering experience. I had been to a lot of attorneys offices before hers and I was worried my case was too difficult, expensive, and I was ready to give up. From the first intake call with Elaine I felt listened to and believed. Attorney DMalta captured my feelings and experience vividly and wholeheartedly in drafting my complaints and responses. The firm even worked with me to figure out an extended payment plan when things were becoming difficult for me financially. Nieves and her team not only stood up for me in court but encouraged me to stand up for myself.

Amazing lawyers. And they pay close attention to detail! There’s still a long way for me to go for my situation, but I’ll definitely be calling them again! Stephanie was my attorney, and she’s amazing. She was not able to make my last court date, and Mari was her replacement, and she was amazing also! Great lawyers!

I found the Nieves law firm to be extremely professional and courteous. I interacted with Nadia Khechfe at this firm and found her to be someone very knowledgeable and responsive. She spent quite a bit of time in educating me on the entire process and followed up on every question I had.

I have been going through a really tough time legally, but when I called this law firm and unloaded my challenges on Nadia I instantly felt like I was talking to a friend. She immediately took the wheel, carry my load, and I honestly can say I felt the since of relief I new then that I was in good hands.I would recommend any and everyone. I wish I could do more than just a review. Oh and the rates are reasonable. She will explain in detail what the procedure is so you can feel comfortable and rest at night knowing that you are in GREAT hands.Thank you Nadia for all you do!

I HIGHLY recommend The Nieves Law Firm. If you are looking for a firm that will genuinely care for you and your legal matters, take the time to ask questions and listen to your goals, will communicate with you, will keep you updated on the status of your situation, and FIGHT for you, look no further than NLF. From the firm owner, Jo-Anna Nieves, to the Office Manager, Ebony Caraballo, and every other associate I have met (virtually), their entire team is committed to serving their clients professionally and relentlessly. #NLF

I contacted Nieves for a consultation. While they were not able to represent me, they were extremely professional and even followed up with me to see how my hearing went. It was very nice to receive this level of concern even though I am not one of their clients. I would definitely recommend Nieves to anyone seeking help with a legal issue.

So far, my experience has been vey positive, and encouraging regarding the legal services that I am engaging in with Nieves Law Firm, and I have received other helpful suggestions and comments from the Nieves Law Firm that are unrelated to my case, but are very much appreciated non the less. I fully expect a positive resolution to my case, and will hopefully have a lasting relationship with the Nieves Law Firm in the future regarding any further legal issues that may arise.

I worked with Jo-Anna and I couldnt have been more pleased with her (and the entire law firms) professionalism, understanding of the legal system and the way they handled everything. They always had my best interest at heart and made sure I knew everything that was going on. I told her I hope I never have to work with her again but if I did I would only want to work with her. Great experience!

My family and I have suffered many years for the mistakes I made earlier in life. After many years I realized it was my responsibility to accept those mistakes and to find a way to move on from them. Jo-Anna and her group assisted me greatly in finding a way to move on. I am deeply thankful and relieved that the Nieves Law Group helped me put my troubled past behind, start me off with a clean slate and be excited about my new life ahead.Thank you

I would like to take this moment to thank Lauren with another law firm. She was extremely instrumental in resolving the issues Ive had with the Alameda county sheriffs department and the return of my property in addition to some issues I had with TSA. I would highly recommend this firm for any and all problems you may have with law enforcement agencies they demonstrated excellent abilities to reach a positive outcome on my behalf. I want to thank them again for all of their help. Anthony

My name is BKG of San Leandro--I want to say a few words about my experience working with The Nieves Law Firm in Oakland, California on Franklin Street in Downtown Oakland.I give 5 STARS BUT I would give 999.99 TRILLION STARS if I could give 999.99 TRILLION STARS to Attorney Grace Goodman and The Nieves Law Firm for their patience, kindness and expertise in representing me in my very scary Temporary Restraining Order case that was filed against me by my former employer in May of 2022.From the very beginning The Nieves Law Firm displayed great compassion and expertise in fighting for my rights. My attorney Attorney Grace Goodman was available anytime by email in the MyCase email system or by telephone. I was able to speak anytime to the staff of The Nieves Law Firm. I felt very secure, I felt well taken care of by The Nieves Law Firm in my time of need when I had nightmares and daydreams that I might end up in Santa Rita County Jail or in San Quentin State Prison.Attorney Grace Goodman was incredible, amazing, kind, patient, sharp, intelligent, focused, serious and expert in working on my case against my former employer. I would recommend Attorney Grace Goodman to my church members, my wife, my family and friends, even to my enemies. She is the best, She is the highest-- I WAS GREATLY BLESSED BY GOD TO BE REPRESENTED AND PROTECTED ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN.OVERALL, I GIVE ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN A RATING OF 999.99 TRILLION STARS MULTIPLIED BY 999.99 TRILLIMy rating is very high,BUTPERCEPTION IS EVERYTHING,ANDSUBJECTIVITY AND PERCEPTION AND MY VERY POSITIVE AMAZING UPLIFTING HOPE-INSPIRING EXPERIENCE WITH THE NIEVES LAW FIRM AND ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN IS THE ULTIMATE REALITYANDIS MY ULTIMATE FINAL REALITY AND IMPRESSION OF ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN AND THE NIEVES LAW FIRM!!!!THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN AND THE NIEVES LAW FIRM FOR SUCCESSFULLY AND SKILLFULLY RESOLVING MY CASE AND GETTING MY TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST ME DISMISSED WITHOUT ANY BLEMISH TO MY RECORD OR REPUTATION!!!!PRAISE THE LORD FOREVER FOR ETERNITY AS IN PSALM 150!!!!MY CAPS REPRESENTS PRAISING GOD AND THANKING ATTORNEY GRACE GOODMAN AND THE NIEVES LAW FIRM!!!!Sincerely,LLW-SLAKABKGAKABKLLWG🙏🙏🙏🙏

A year ago i recieved a call from Jo-anna, asking if i was ready to handle my case. I wasnt sure so she mentioned she will call me in a couple months to check in. A whole year later of putting her calls aside, i decide im ready and still she calls. Now, my case has been settled completely in my favor, thanks to everyone at Nieves Law Firm who handled the case. I wish i had done so sooner but glad its over with now. They went above and beyond i thought was possible, they genuinely care, very detail oriented and best of all, honest. Cant thank you enough.

Roxanne was great and never made me feel judged. She worked hard and kept me up to date with everything going on in my case and got me a lesser sentence than I would have gotten otherwise. They also worked with me for a payment schedule that worked for me and my family. 10/10 would recommend.
