Law Offices of Timothy E. Nilan

An incredible team work from all of them. Lucille returned every email, txt message and phone calls. Very professional and Mr. Nilan actually showed up to every appointment with us not like my previous lawyer who did nothing for helping me and I only spend thousand of dollar for nothing. My case wasn’t easy and my previous lawyer did nothing for me. Mr. Nilan was there on top of everything since the consultation phone call. Thank You to the Nilan Law Team for taking my case. I recommend him 100%

Working with Mr. Nilan and his staff has been the worst experience of my life. I hired him to help me get visitation rights with my kids, and everything was going well until my ex-wife filed a restraining order, lying about almost everything. I was never properly served, but there was a hearing date that I was supposed to attend, but Mr. Nilan and his assistant at the time told me not to go because I wasn't properly served. I kept calling and emailing Xochitl, asking if I should attend the hearing, and she consistently responded with the same response: "No, because this is not valid, you weren't properly served. I followed instructions not to attend the hearing. My ex-wife was granted a restraining order, and a week later, I received a package from Mr. Nilan's office with the details of the order, including the inability to see my kids, call them, or do anything else for three and a half years. This got me thinking, how is this possible if they said it wasn't valid? I called Xochil'd right away to find out what was going on, and she said she was going to ask Mr. Nilan and would get back to me when she eventually did. Mr. Nilan said he believes he has a strong case and can get the restraining order lifted, but he will require $3500. I informed her that money wouldn't be a problem if he would have resolved the matter at the hearing and then charged me for his services. I was shocked to hear this and asked her why you guys had advised me not to attend the hearing when it could have been avoided from the start. However, he allowed the court to rule that my ex-wife may say anything she wanted to. I was so angry that I didn't contact Mr. Nilan's office for over a month. After I had calmed down, I contacted Xochilt and asked if we could go to court to resolve this. I didn't realize I had only 30 days to file an appeal and respond to the court regarding the restraining order, so I was shocked to hear that there was nothing more we could do. I spoke with Mr. Nilan directly and asked him why he had let time pass and hadn't taken action if he knew there would be consequences. All he said was that he apologized for his actions, and he had dropped the ball with my case and asked me what it is you want me to do told him, "Let's go to court and try to resolve this. Talk to the judge." When we went to court, he told the judge that it was his fault as well as that he had dropped the ball, but the judge did not seem to care. All he said was that there was a restraining order in place and that he could not make any changes. Mr. Nilan and I returned to court a few more times because, in the opinion of this purportedly experienced attorney, Mr. Nilan had a suggestion for how to handle the situation, but the outcome was the same each time. "YES," he succeeded in getting me to begin therapy so that my two children and I could forge new bonds. Wow! Remarkably, I haven't seen my two children or been able to do anything for the past three years, and I still have one and a half years left. Because of the restraining order, no one wants to assist me with my therapy because they don't want to be involved in any legal issues. If I could give this unprofessional lawyer a zero-star rating, I would advise not working with him because all he cares about is getting your money. Negative five stars is what I would do.

A few years ago my mother and I contacted Mr. Timothy Nilan because we needed legal counsel, he was very professional and was there to answer all our questions and concerns. It's been years and my mother and I still remember him with much gratitude. Mr. Nilan understood our situation and fully dedicated himself to win our case! Walking into his office we felt heavy, we were dealing with much stress but after our first consultation we went home feeling secure. He listened and took our case personal. Luckily, we haven't dealt with crazy people since! Thank you Mr. Nilan.

Hello Everyone! I had an amazing experience with this law office! When i first decided to consult with an attorney, I was very nervous dealing with an ex that could not get over the fact that we had separated years ago and he was still trying to do anything to hurt me. From the moment I arrived Xochitl made me welcomed and more relax hearing me just go on and on about what was going on. I honestly felt like she really listen to all my concerns and issues with no judgement and helped me feel so much better. Timothy himself introduces himself right away and also with a warm and welcoming smile. When it is court time he makes you feel secure and ready to go! Even after the court date Xotchitl keeps you up to date with anything pending and is always available for any questions. I definitely feel recommend this Law Office to anything pertaining to Family Law, you will not be disappointed. -Monica Llamas
