I can't recommend Nick Gottwald enough. He fought for me and my children (successfully), as if he had a personal stake in the game. He's straight to the chase and isn't going to sugar coat anything, which I appreciated and even preferred. He's smart and experienced, communicative, and personable. He seemed respected in the court room, by both the presiding and opposing counsel. He shared my frustration, fears, and passion for the case, and I truly believe that that was the driving factor for the success. Lastly, Nick could've given up on my case a million times. He didn't, he was invested. I truly can't imagine having fought this battle with someone else. I plan to have Nick represent me and my children throughout the course of their childhood, should it be necessary. Thank you for everything, Nick!
I hired Nick Gottwald to help me with a complicated child support case. He did a great job listening and adapting my input into legal action. He has a ton of experience so he is able to offer great advice on what strategies will actually work (in court and in mediation). Nick is a great communicator, he's kind, professional, and you can tell he is passionate about the work he does and he wants to help you succeed. He worked well with the opposing counsel - leading and building trust. Ultimately Nick guided this case to a settlement which was the best outcome for everyone. Billing was easy and straightforward. I would highly recommend Nick and his firm. Thank you Nick!

Thank you NICK for anyone looking for a good lawyer that has experience and is well respected by lawyer, judges, and mediators. This is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!
After over 2 years of working with Wade, I feel like I can give an honest review. If you're looking for a competent and compassionate lawyer, choose Wade Taylor. He signed on to my case after I left another law group and he fixed everything that the previous lawyer messed up. Because of Wade, I am now able to see my child more and actually have a bond with her. He was able to see through my ex's tactics and found her in contempt. If you want a lawyer who will be a bulldog in court and fight for you and your rights, choose Wade!
I had an excellent experience working with Nick Gottwald. After consulting with a few attorneys, I chose him because of his thoughtful, straightforward approach—and it was absolutely the right decision. He was professional, responsive, and handled everything efficiently from start to finish. Nick made a complex process feel manageable, and his calm, steady demeanor really stood out. He brings not just legal skill, but a rare combination of kindness and clarity that made a big difference. Highly recommend Nic if you’re looking for someone who truly knows what they’re doing and handles it all with integrity and care.
