    “Nick was able to understand my situation and to put my child’s best interests as the top priority.”
    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.

    “When you want the BEST, call The Halks Firm!”
    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.

    “He doesn’t back down or make promises he can’t make come true.”
    Attorney Nick Halks is an excellent attorney. He not only takes the time to work with you but he is very attentive to detail and unlike many attorneys he works for you and most importantly gets the results you want! Nick is an all around very knowledgeable family attorney and aggressive when it comes to getting results. He doesn’t back down or make promises he can’t make come true. From day one my case was difficult and he never promised me something that couldn’t happen but in the end he was able to get more then ever talked about. His ability to work well with clients and other attorneys makes him an exceptional attorney and very well respected. Look no further when in need of a family law attorney as I have had multiple and Nick by far is the only one to provide results in a case where most attorneys offered no hope!
