Client Testimonials

In October, 2007, my son Keller was struck by an automobile near the Georgia Tech campus in Atlanta. Keller…suffered traumatic head injuries and was forced to withdraw from school for several months.  Given that our family lived in New York, we were in the unenviable position of having to choose a lawyer in the Atlanta area to pursue our case.  The thought of having to rely upon billboard advertisements or the Yellow Pages was not making our situation any easier.  Fortunately, a trusted contact…suggested using a local lawyer named Alan Nicholson. Our choice was fortuitous as our claim ended up being settled sooner than expected and maxed out the defendant’s coverage.  All along, Alan had been very cautious in his predictions and the eventual outcome was a very pleasant surprise.  If I were asked to best describe Alan with two words, those words would be competent and honest.  I can recommend Alan Nicholson without any reservation.

[My] grandmother, uncle and aunt were in a very serious accident where a tractor-trailer hit them head on.  All three were injured. … [My] grandmother was the most seriously injured.  Our family knew that legal assistance was needed and having personal knowledge of his integrity and work ethic, I insisted the family contact Alan Nicholson. … I knew that Alan’s personal care toward each client would be very important to my family.  At ninety years of age, my grandmother certainly didn’t understand all that was going on, and yet, as Alan began to work with her, it was obvious that she immediately recognized his sincerity and good judgment.  Alan took the time to make many personal visits to see her and to make certain she had nothing to worry about. … 

The case had its own challenges.  The owner and operator of the truck were, all of a sudden, nowhere to be found and that complicated the handling of the case.  When Alan took the time to share with us all he did to track down them down, I was personally convinced that few people would have gone to that much trouble to make certain their clients were that well cared for.

There is so much I could say about the personal care that went into helping a feeble, ninety-year-old lady prepare for a deposition, … or the excellent outcome of the case, itself.  However, the very best thing I can say is that I know my grandmother trusted Alan and loved him for his help. 

A stroke eventually took my grandmother’s life.  As I stood to deliver a eulogy at her funeral, I saw Alan and his wife Carole, sitting there….  There was no expectation for Alan to be there and yet, there he was.  It was never more real, than in that moment, that it is the personal attention that means so much.  It did to us all and we are eternally grateful.

[T]hank you for your outstanding service.  I do not think that anyone wants to find themselves in the position of needing an injury attorney but when I finally deemed it necessary, I did my homework….

I came upon your website and read your credentials along with many others and decided to call you. … I was a loyal employee of a well-respected company for many years.  I tried to deal with their workers compensation people for years on my own before finally realizing that I needed counsel.  I never expected to get the kind of service that I received.  Because I had so many questions and stories of my situation to tell, you spent an hour and half on our first telephone call.  As a salesperson myself, I was expecting a sales pitch … that never came.

You and your staff were extremely helpful through the whole process.  If ever I called, and you were not available, you were always prompt to return my calls as soon as possible.  I am truly glad that I made that first phone call; you helped me through the process and a very difficult personal situation; one that I could not have navigated on my own.

Alan doesn’t treat you like you’re just a client.  From the time you walk in his office to the time you leave his office, you know that you have met with someone who will put your interests first.  The very first thing that he tells you “is to be completely upfront and honest with him about everything and he will fight tooth and nail for you.”…

Alan does not and will not tell you what you want to hear.  He is going to be brutally honest with you about everything and how things will happen.  He will talk to you in a language that you understand and not give you all that legal mumble jumble.  If there is something that you have difficulty understanding, he will take the time to explain it to you until you know what he is talking about and if you have a question later on, you can always get in touch with him.  By email or phone, he gets right back to you.  Not a day or two later or a week later and he keeps you informed on things as they happen not weeks or months after the fact.

When Alan took on my case, it really seemed that I didn’t have a snowball chance in Hades, but Alan being true to his word, fought tooth and nail for me.  To this day, I have complete mobility with my right shoulder after I was originally told that I would have to live with my shoulder the way that it was.  Now, thanks to God and Alan, my life has completely changed and I am able to do the things that I have dreamed about doing.   I didn’t just have a lawyer…. I had (and still have) a true friend!
