Probably one of the most professional attorneys out there. Always willing to help. Provides a response no matter the circumstance. Information is clear and concise. Not to many attorneys go out of there way to take their time to address questions in a proper manner as he does. I learned a lot about my situation from our interactions and consultation. Thank you for your time and information, Mr. Nicholson I appreciate it.

Erik helped me reach the best possible outcome with my case and helped me to be able to maintain the life I was already living. I was able to continue my master's program and continue positive progress in all areas of my life. He worked hard and around the clock and kept in close contact throughout the duration of my case.

I’ve used him a few times and I completely trust him. I don’t have to worry so much knowing that he’s fighting to get me the best outcome possible. I appreciate that he’s approachable, willing to explain things and answer any questions. Obviously no one wants to get into legal trouble but if you do, I’d definitely recommend him. He will let you know what to expect and guide you through the process. It’s worth the peace of mind to hire a good lawyer like Erik.

Excellent attorney that made sure I had all the documentation and and information I needed going into my hearing. Mr. Nicholson made sure all the appropriate documents were filed with the courts making this a seamless process.
Breanna Drummond

Erik was assigned as my public defender, and was so efficient and clear about the process, even letting me know that I probably wouldn't hear from him for a good length of time because the process was slow, that I never felt like I needed to check in because I knew that if something happened that I needed to know, he would contact me. He made everything super easy dealing with the court, and you could tell that he had a lot of experience and was well respected in the courtroom. When that was done, he let me know I could contact him after a certain length of time for an expungement and that he would help me with that too. I did reach out to him and he made that process just as painless. Really great.

I am fairly new to the area and found Erik Nicholson via Google based on his reviews. He was very responsive, empathetic, and professional. He reviewed my case and options clearly. He sought the best outcome and achieved it. I am forever grateful for Erik! I would not hesitate to seek his counsel again in the future.

Free Consultation with Erik Nicholson

Erik always provides a free consultation. This will give you an opportunity to do three important things:

  1. Discuss your case and understand how we can help you.
    There’s a good chance you have never hired a lawyer and don’t know what to expect. We want to make this process easy from beginning to end. We understand that choosing a lawyer is a big decision and we want you to learn about our successful approach to criminal defense.
  2. Learn how Oregon law applies to your situation.
    There is a lot of false information about criminal law especially on the Internet. I often speak to people who are making decisions based on information that is just plain wrong. The defense decisions you make today can have dramatic and lasting impacts for the rest of your life. Make sure you are building a solid strategy based on accurate and timely information.
  3. Learn the costs of hiring a lawyer & what to expect moving forward
    One of the most common questions we hear is “how much does it cost to hire a criminal defense lawyer?” Unfortunately, the answer is “it depends”. We offer an upfront flat fee and payment plans for all cases. We know hiring a criminal defense attorney is unexpected so we try to offer excellent service at a lower price than our competitors.
