Services
Nielsen Legal is a diverse legal practice handling a wide range of matters for individuals in Waynesville and throughout Haywood County, Jackson County and Buncombe County in North Carolina. What sets us apart is our approach to your case. We work as a team to help you accomplish your objectives and goals.
If you've been injured in a car accident, you need an experienced and compassionate law firm to help you deal with heartless insurance companies to which you are only a number on a page. If you've been in a car accident and are not at fault, chances are the other driver's insurance agent has already contacted you to try and get a quick settlement.
Regardless of the offense, when you are charged with a criminal offense it can feel hopeless as well as terrifying. The prosecution is there to enforce the law. But a criminal defense attorney is there to protect your rights. At Nielsen Legal we have a firm belief in the Constitution of the United States of America, particularly with Fourth Amendment rights, such as the prohibition against unreasonable searches and seizure by authorities.
More often than not, the separation and divorce processes are overwhelming, painful, confusing and stressful for many individuals. Aside from the expected fears of leaving a household, dividing property and setting up a new life, there are also high levels of anxiety when it comes to children, or special personal belongings, such as pets.
Please find these links to the North Carolina Courts System that show the misdemeanor and felony sentencing charts. If you take the time to review the charts, you can see how your sentence could range and what some of the options are at sentencing.

If you are looking for an experienced Waynesville criminal defense lawyer to learn more about your offense, potential penalties and what we can do to mitigate the penalties you could face, contact our team today.

Mr. Nielsen, yesterday, Feb.13th you agreed to a consult with my daughter about a custody arrangement. She was made to feel like she had no rights or reason to ask for such a thing. You, more than once said " if I was his attorney....." and proceeded to tell her what you would do. After she came home furious and in tears she said you behaved like you were his attorney. After telling her friend about this costly mom shaming episode the friend showed her this little thing. Hmmmmmm..... i believe you owe my daughter one hell of an apology and an immediate refund of the fee you took from her hand knowing

I currently live in TN and had this legal firm handle a traffic ticket for me that required me to appear in court. I am a surgeon in TN and could not appear myself.

I could not have been more displeased with my choice to use Nielsen Legal. I was initially given false information and guidance on my first phone call, which I could forgive. People do make mistakes. What I can't forgive is the unprofessional treatment and consideration I received. I received no contact whatsoever about my case and I had to call to try to get updates and understand the situation.
