Assist with Labor Litigation

Dillon Nichols

"Very inexperienced, although a nice person. The firm he belongs to apparently more interested in giving him experience and billing as much $$ as possible than in resolving the legal issue. Basically just rephrased my own communication and emails with the other party. In my opinion, excessively overcharged me for what was mostly redundant and ineffective communication with the other attorney. Nothing resolved. I do not recommend this law firm."
