Nora was an excellent divorce attorney for me. She kept me posted on everything. She’s very good at getting back to you in a timely manner. She’s extremely intelligent and a very quick thinker on her feet! I would recommend Nora Hickman to anyone I know that is going through a contested divorce! Thank you, Nora, for all of your legal advice and help during this difficult time.

Nora (through the NXTSTEP practice in Huntsville, AL) did a fantastic job with my divorce-related case in the fall of 2019. She took a no-nonsense, serious approach to my defense. She did excellent research and preparation work. Her communication was very responsive and timely. I've encountered many lawyers in this field around Huntsville, and there are *many* duds, so I recommend you do careful research up front. I strongly encourage you to consider hiring Nora, as I will certainly do myself in the future if I ever need her services again.

Nora did a fantastic job when we hired her for our custody case. She did exactly what she said she would do, followed up with us regularly, and in the end the outcome what exactly what we needed. She is empathetic and kind, but bold and aggressive when necessary. Our family is very grateful to her!

Nora did a wonderful job with my legal matter. She was highly professional, understood the process fully, and walked me through it in a very succinct way that helped me understand exactly what to expect. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for knowledgeable representation.

My paperwork was repeatedly riddled with mistakes every time, despite my already submitting corrections to her initial incorrect work. It was as if the corrections supplied had not been seen or were disregarded. Nora flipped and went back on her advice at every turn and I never felt secure with my representation and had a constant uneasiness throughout the entire process. On top of this, the papers were always delinquent even after several requests for them even by my former spouse's attorney and it was almost impossible to reach Ms. Hickman. My divorce was largely delayed do to her delinquencies and discrepancies, thus creating further issues with my former spouse. Ms. Hickman's services were far below mediocre, at best, and due to her lack of professionalism and work ethic, the outcome of my divorce proceedings were very unfortunate. I do not recommend any involvement with Ms. Hickman in regard to representation for any situation.
