I found Jim Nystrom online, having just recently relocated into the Alpharetta area, and hit the jackpot. Jim has been an invaluable advisor and counselor where my tax difficulties are concerned, and I have never reached out to him that I did not receive a lightning fast response. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

My CPA referred Jim to me to use as a lawyer for help in opening a business. He said he would be fair with his fees and that I could trust him. He was absolutely correct. Jim has answered all questions I ask of him in a timely manner and with much expertise. I am still in the process of opening my business and I feel very confident that I can rely on Jim for answers to all of my questions.

I have utilized the legal services and advice of Jim Nystrom since 1986 - (27 years). He is very thorough, easy to contact, and readily available to discuss the matter at hand. He has always been straight forward and honest with me and, over the course of those 27 years, he has become not only "my attorney", but also my friend. I find his fee structure to be fair and reasonable. His services and advice relating to general buisiness matters, business contracts, non-compete agreements, leases, real estate matters, wills and trusts, private family matters, and HOA matters, have been of great value and I trust his advice implicitly. He has always served me well. I highly recommend Jim Nystrom.

Jim has become a trusted advisor and friend of our family. He and his team have helped us navigate through some complex situations and transactions. It is also a tremendous asset to have real estate specialists on his team (his wife is an excellent real estate agent, and his one of his associates is a pit bull in the field of banking and lending). Jim is always sensitive to our personal situation, goes the extra mile and is conscientious in providing very reasonable fees. We will always turn to Jim for our family and business legal advice, and give him the highest recommendation to others!

Have been associated with Jim for over 10 years and he has guided my family through the various adjustments needed as life changes occurred. He was particularly helpful as we worked through the liquidation of three different estates, one of which involved an arbitration. Jim is informative and thorough and continues to keep us aware of changes in the laws that may impact our situation. I would highly recommend him personally and professionally.

My company was founded in 1986. Jim Nystrom has been our sole business attorney since 1998. He has handled many complicated contracts and straight forward business matters for us. He is knowledgeable, thorough and responsive. I call him anytime I'm concerned about a matter to hear his opinion. Jim Nystrom is an asset to our business and valued adviser.

I have requested the services of Jim Nystrom and his practice several times. I trust his advice and his service implicitly. He has handled real estate transactions on my behalf and I consider him to be my first line of advice. When he has had other pressing matters, he has made sure that his staff is available for me in his absence and that he can be contacted if necessary. He returns calls without lag time and with answers. I have asked him to handle matters out of his realm ( personal and out of state) and he continues to be a concerned advocate and has assisted in finding the correct answer for my situations. If I have any questions or need for counsel, I go to Jim Nystrom first.

Jim represented me on some complex real estate matters and dealt with regulatory authorities in Atlanta. He is a bright, thorough attorney who does whatever needs to be done to complete the task. His services are timely and cost effective. I would trust Jim with any legal matter. He focuses on the issues at hand and is a master at getting results.

Jim is as outstanding lawyer. He is fair and honest. He has helped me with several matters and all were resolved in a timely economical manner. I have referred him to friends and family. I worked with another attorney on another matter and he needed additional retainer every other week but was unable to account for his time ever. Jim is experienced and trustworthy. I highly recommend him.
