I was referred to Nick from another probate attorney who I couldn't afford. With my son being in a state of crisis, my family under duress, and having recently received a not so favorable outcome with a prior attorney; Nick made time to meet with me within days. During that initial meeting he was empathetic, showed compassion to my situation and was not overpriced; I was also provided with his intended direct course of action that was going to ensure change and results that were in the best interest of my son. Nick and his team kept me informed throughout the entire process and made sure there was an open line of communication. Even now, months later I received outreaches from the team to check in on us! Knowing that there is no garentee on the outcomes court wise, I knew my family was in good hands. Without having to go all the way to trial; I received everything we were requesting and more! If I ever have to go to court again, The Halks Firm will be my first and only call.Monique

If you want great representation, look no further than Nicholas Halks. He is professional, committed to his clients, hard-working, and assertive in his efforts. Many lawyers make deals with other lawyers for their own benefit or prolong a case to make more money. Nicholas Halks is a truly honest attorney. He listens well, responds promptly and is incredibly pro-active. He helped me to win my case and i knew he would the whole time because he believed in me as a client. I am going to use him again should I need to in the future and I will always recommend him to family and friends. Nicholas Halks is a winner!Linda

I recently got divorced. I went through serious trauma in my married life and It was the hardest experience in my life but Attorney Halks was my savior from day one. From the initial consultation to post divorce he was there for me. He and his legal team were always there whenever I reached out, and had answers to my concerns within minutes. I genuinely appreciate his efforts to resolve the situation peacefully, though my ex-wife was literally abusive. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. Thanks a lot Attorney Halks !!!Jay

I hired Nick last February when an urgent family matter occurred. Throughout the year, Nick and his team has helped me at each step of the process regarding to my child custody case. Nick is a professional, knowledgeable, detail-oriented attorney who takes his clients’ cases seriously. Whether it was drafting legal documents or representing me in the court, I felt confident with Nick and his team behind my back. Being a parent himself, Nick was able to understand my situation and to put my child’s best interests as the top priority. The rest of his team is very professional as well and easy to reach to whenever I had questions. Overall, I am very satisfied with the work that Nick and his team has done.Junru
