Elliott was the first person to recognize I needed help and referred me to treatment before he even began to work on my case. This was the most ethical and unselfish thing a lawyer could do. It also saved my life. My charges were due to a gambling addiction and he was thorough, calm and successful in all aspects of the criminal process. I was facing 2 serious felonies and months in prison. I received the best outcome I could have imagined, which DID NOT include prison. Reassuring and confident. Thank you Elliott.

Mr. Nickell represented me from just after booking all the way through sentencing and got the best possible results for me. I was in a difficult situation and he was able to get an outcome far better than I thought was possible. Mr. Nickell is very good at what he does. He was on top of my case, prepared for every proceeding and communicated every step of the way. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again and would recommend him with confidence to friends or family.

I was lucky enough to find Elliott a few years ago when I found myself with legal issues. My first consultation with Elliott was more than I expected. He explained my options and immediatly came up with a plan of action. Elliott was compationate and gave me the hope that all is not lost. As we battled through the court system, Elliott always had my back. He stood up for me and my families situation and in the end did the what seemed impossible. My family and I will always be grateful for all the work Elliott did for us all the while keeping my stress level in check over a stressful situation. My case is over and I have a new outlook on life all thanks to Elliotts hard work and dedication. He always made me feel like I was his one and only client. Always answers his phone and replies to my emails. I highly recommend Elliott. He is a bright light when a dark situation arises.

I was very happy with Elliot's representation of me and my case. He was very professional and I'd totally use him again if I ever need a lawyer. He's very smart and diligent. And I could tell he was doing everything he could to help me in court! Very pleased with the outcome as well!

Elliott was helpful in explaining what was needed from me at each junction in the process. He helped encourage me and help me feel comfortable with possible outcomes. Elliott was well organized and worked hard to help me get a not guilty verdict.

Elliott has defended me with two criminal defense cases. One was disorderly conduct and the other was domestic assault. Elliott is very analytical and doesn't miss details. He does his due diligence. He's ethical, organized and I believe he charged me a fair price for his services.

Was being charged with Careless Driving and Driving After Revocation. When I met with Elliott, he said he thought we could potentially get a stay of adjudication on the Careless Driving and dismissal on the DAR. Throughout the process, there were times when it did not seem hopeful because the Prosecutor was not willing to let both of those charges go. But with Elliott's help and recommendation, we took it to trial. I was concerned but really glad I listened to him because the DAR got dismissed and I got the stay of adjudication on the Careless Driving, after a year of a clean driving record I'm happy to say I will not be convicted as long as I meet my requirements! With formerly having a DWI on my record, I was not sure if we would be able to achieve this (since that looks terrible in the first place). I am so thankful for Elliott's guidance and determination to help me get what I wanted. He also made sure I was comfortable and satisfied with my decisions. If you're thinking about hiring Elliott, I would highly recommend just doing it. He's respectful, willing it to listen, and cares about your satisfaction. Thanks again Elliott!

Elliott was very thorough. At times when I was starting to feel discouraged about my case Elliott was very supportive and helped me along with the process. Elliott definitely got the results that I was looking.
