Testimonials
At Nelson Law Firm, we take pride in building lasting relationships with our clients, rooted in professionalism and personalized attention. But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our clients have to say:
Aaron is extremely thorough and insightful, and just an all-around nice person. He helped us ensure ALL of our goals were met and did it with an abundance of legal and tax code knowledge. I highly recommend Nelson Law Firm and Aaron for any legal or tax work, especially in the areas of real estate, financial planning, and tax questions.
When we relocated to South Carolina, we knew that we should update our wills and estate plan. Aaron was very knowledgeable and helpful. He improved upon our ideas/suggestions. He was also very good at explaining legal considerations in a language that we could understand. As a retired CPA, I have 40 years of experience working with attorneys in major cities, and I found Aaron to be very good at what he does.
Aaron and Amanda are a tremendous team, make you feel welcome, and are prompt and professional. Mr. Nelson is extremely patient, explains everything thoroughly, provides clarity, and is direct and straight to the point on legal matters. This team and law firm deserve my highest possible recommendation.
Aaron did a great job preparing our wills and several trusts. He’s extremely professional and keeps his clients well-informed on changing tax laws. I highly recommend this attorney and law firm.
