Testimonials

"Would like to take a moment and give a huge thank you to Aaron and his staff. After hiring him it shows why he is the best in the business and it’s not close! He is a very intelligent man with a background to prove it in the court of law. No one else I would rather have standing in my corner in defense!"

Michael M.

"Highly recommend Nelson Defense Group. I truly believe they were the best choice I could have made when deciding who to trust with my freedom. Aaron did an excellent job defending me and my rights and I would without question hire him again if needed."

Natasha R.

"Mr. Nelson and his team were wonderful. I had a fairly complex case that required a lot of time and effort, but Mr. Nelson did not hesitate to take the case and exceed my expectations. Connie, Mr. Nelson’s assistant, was always a pleasure to work with as well. I would recommend the Nelson Defense Group to anyone in need of a strong team. You won’t be disappointed."

Hussein A.

"Incredibly pragmatic and professional. They were able to make the most difficult decisions a bit easier by making sure I was informed and properly advised. All of the legal processes were facilitated due to the defense group’s experience and familiarity with the particular court that we worked with. For my first experience with a defense group, I wouldn’t have wanted it to go any differently."

Nick J.

"I highly encourage any individual faced with a traumatic event that has the potential to make life harder and inflict you with a struggle you do not want to face alone to seek out Aaron Nelson. Day-to-day life can be draining and tiresome enough, without involving the law and the ramifications tied with it. He seriously knows the loss potential you are facing and listens. "

Elizabeth R.

"I thank God for bringing Aaron Nelson, & his group into my son’s life. His belief in my son’s total innocence and his fight for justice is something we will never forget! I would highly recommend Nelson Defense to anyone that is in search of an Attorney that will truly fight for your legal rights!"
