Finding the right attorney can be a challenge, especially for a strong personality client (i.e. me). It was very important that I found someone not only extremely capable of dealing with my case but also dealing with me. I needed someone to support me when i was on the right train of thought, or advise me when I wasn't. Seth and his team were very attentive to me and prompt in moving my case forward. He always gave sound advise and talked me down when necessary. I could not have picked a better attorney to handle my case. Awesome work and quick resolution!

My paternity case was extremely difficult from all angles. Hiring Seth and his firm was the key to my success as he took the time to professionally guide my case to settlement, while showing true empathy for my situation. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an experienced, caring lawyer who demands fair, equitable treatment for his clients.

You’ll quickly see, Seth is one of the smartest people you’ve ever met. He has law memorized and is eager to get to details to help settle your case. He was incredibly helpful and I was so thankful I had him on my side.

Hired Seth on two separate occasions for child custody & payment support issues. Both times were a success and I'm so thankful I had his team on my side. I really appreciate that he treats you like family and not a number. Love them!

I contacted Seth for support regarding a Family Law matter. He was immediately responsive. Once he looked into the case detail, he realized that it would be in my best interest to get legal support in a different Florida Country for best value. Not only did he recommend this, he interviewed different lawyers for me, and selected who he thought strongest to support the case. No doubt the most personal and professional legal support I have ever gotten, and I have used a lot of legal services in the past 20 years as owner of a multi-national corporation.

If your dissolution of marriage case in any way involves RSU’s, PSU’s & LTI, you need Seth Nelson in your corner on Day 1. He is extremely well-versed in this area, and has the ability to explain what it all means, as it pertains to your case, in a way that makes sense. From that point on, allow Seth to do the “heavy lifting.” This is where he shines. You’ll quickly appreciate his no-nonsense approach—minimizing the minutiae & focusing on the big picture—to achieve optimal results. The entire team at NK is friendly, professional and responsive. Special shouts out to Madison and Shawn for effective and timely administrative coordination, Diana in billing, and Kaley for assisting Seth with my case. Divorce is emotional and financial hell. While I sincerely hope the need never arises, I would highly recommend Seth and his team to family and friends.

Seth and all those at his firm patiently guided me through the most trying time of my life. They kept me informed and always provided quick responses to my questions. And they were the bull dogs I needed on my side of the table. They showed compassion, they know their stuff, and their support left me feeling empowered through the entire process. I started the divorce process with another attorney and the experience was night and day! I hope to never need their services again AND recommend them to everyone who is even considering getting a divorce or needs help with family law related matters.

Seth is an amazing attorney who is able to see both sides of the issues. The communication between client and attorney was exceptional. I spoke with Seth on weekends and even over the holidays. He walked me through the process without making me feel overwhelmed or confused. I highly recommend Seth if you need someone to have your back.

Initially I had a very thorough phone consultation with Seth Nelson, which immediately told me I wanted to meet with him. I was able to effectively communicate all my concerns and expectations to Seth, and he in return was able to clearly explain things to me regarding my case and provided me with realistic expectations. Seth Nelson, super organized, super professional, SUPER knowledgeable and showed compassion and support throughput my case experience with him.

Finding Seth on Avvo was a blessing. I needed a lawyer just before Christmas, and Seth was there for me. He spent four hours on a Saturday to processed my divorce paperwork and work towards getting my children back. He is extremely knowledgeable and only wants the best for his clients. He is driven and looks ahead to the next step within your case. If you are looking for a lawyer/law firm that can deliver expertise, open communication, and working with the client to ensure success, you found it. Seth was able to get my children back to me and settled my divorce. Thank you Seth for allowing me to have my life back and working with me throughout the case. I am so grateful I called you and your law firm.
