I highly recommend Mark Nicholson and the Law Office of Mark Nicholson. Since last year, I have needed his services (and to this day, as always the service exceeds my expectations) after a couple of my loved ones had gotten themselves in some serious trouble with the law for the first time. Mark Nicholson and the rest of his team eased not only my mind about the whole process but the rest of the families minds as well. At any time I need Mark and his team, they are always available to help quickly, all while maintaining a high level of professionalism. Mark made sure to explain everything in detail and made the whole process easy to understand and overall a better learning experience. I am very grateful for the help I always receive from Mark Nicholson and his team at the Law Office of Mark Nicholson. Definitely great customer service and professionalism. If I ever (which I hope I don’t) get into any trouble, Mark Nicholson is the one I will call on.

I am a Volunteer Chaplain with the Marion County Sheriff‘s Department. I spoke with Attorney Nicholson today and he was so knowledgeable and concerned I’ve had to fight back tears all afternoon. I know three gentlemen Who were unjustly given 100 year prison sentences. Attorney Mark Nicholson was recommended highly to me and I know he is a man of integrity just from our first conversation today. He is willing to accept this challenge so that these innocent men can be set free!!! I said some unfair things to him because I recently had HORRIBLE experiences with several Attorneys BUT Attorney Nicholson assured me he doesn’t take peoples Money without Fighting Hard for them. He never disrespected me nor became angry with me. He felt my Compassion for these young men The Indy 3! I am going to give him an Autographed copy of my Book called The Travesty of Justice and NO Coincidence that is his Motto to help others. I BELIEVE he had to go thru his Injustices to help others!

I used Attorney Mark Nicholson to represent me in my case against the state of Indiana. Mr. Nicholson and his team are the best to work with! They are responsive, timely, professional, and committed to their clients. Attorney Nicholson was the voice I needed to represent me in my case. When it was all said and done Attorney Nicholson presented the facts in my case. In the end I was found not guilty by the jury. I recommend Attorney Mark Nicholson because he has a strong presence when it comes to speaking on your behalf. He and his team will fight for your justice. You won’t be disappointed!

I had was arrested for drinking and driving. People told me there was no way I would be able to beat this case. Since I knew a conviction would ruin my career, I had to find an attorney that would really fight for me. I was lucky because I saw attorney Mark Nicholson on the news talking about drunk driving cases! I researched more about him and found out he teaches at a law school, teaches other attorneys and has multiple awards for defending drunk driving cases. He has a history of winning cases. So I contacted his office and his paralegal answered the phone. She was friendly and scheduled me an appointment with him. During our meeting he answered my questions, explained the law to me and put me at ease. He promised me that he would fight for me and he did. He got my case dismissed. I’m so glad because I didn’t lose my job and I can pursue my career. I highly recommend attorney Mark Nicholson and the Law Office of Mark Nicholson!!!

I hired him to help me on a criminal case after I was arrested. I wanted a trial and he said he would fight for me. During the trial Mark was awesome! The jury found me not guilty. I would hire him again as my criminal defense attorney, if I needed his help again.

MR.Nichelson was such a great attorney! He believed us and showed it in court room. We took a owi to jury trial and he beat the case. Even though the state had 3 cops as witnesses and 3 civilians. He caught most in lies,including officers. All I can state about Mark is " He is the best".

This the law firm to hire! My review is long overdue. But I just saw one of their TV commercials and I had to write this review. I had a situation involving some serious false lies against me. Mark and his paralegal Katie helped me last year. Then when I needed help again earlier this year, I contacted his office again and Katie was able to remember my name, case and help me. Even though I needed help after their office was closed, she still accepted my calls, messages and didn’t judge me. I could tell she really cared about me and my situation just as much as her attorney did. They believed in me. If you are in the need of a law firm that actually cares about you and your situation then hire them to help you. It is money well spent.
