What People Say About Our Firm

Tom Nellessen is an excellent attorney! I had a really complex DUI case and I consulted many attorney’s about, and he was the only one to tell me that I might have a chance. He was able to successfully have my case dropped which is opening up a lot of doors in the right direction for my life. He was very easy to get a hold of and when I couldn’t he always made sure to return my calls. I would recommend him to anyone. His rates were reasonable and he exceeded my expectations in every way. Top Class Attorney!

T. Gordon

Tom is the complete package when it comes to an attorney. He is knowledgeable, highly experienced and very skilled in the courtroom. Tom is also a very caring person who fights to help people. The manner in which Mr. Nellessen handled my case was exceptional. He was very pleasant to the prosecutors and the Judge, and the respect they had for him was obvious. I would recommend Mr. Nellessen as an attorney for anyone who is charged with a dui.
