After my experience with Nicole Dalton and Dalton Law Firm, I would not recommend her services. I have been working toward finalizing my divorce since 2024, and after spending approximately $9,000, I still have no resolution.
My experience in court was particularly frustrating. Nicole arrived late, seemed unprepared for my hearing, and continued requesting extensions to the point that the judge was visibly frustrated by the repeated delays. I left feeling that my hearing had been completely botched. Outside of court, the experience felt just as disorganized. I was repeatedly passed between different assistants, communication lacked consistency, and there were times when I found Nicole's manner toward me rude and dismissive.
I also had serious concerns about billing and financial transparency. More than a year passed without me receiving a bill or a clear accounting of the funds being deducted from my trust. When I requested documentation, Nicole refused to provide what I was asking for. Instead, I was told that work had been completed on my case even though I had not been receiving billing statements. I did not receive the level of documentation and transparency I expected regarding thousands of dollars of my money.
Above everything else, my greatest concern involved my child's safety. I repeatedly communicated safety concerns, but I did not feel those concerns were given the urgency, preparation, or attention they warranted. My child was ultimately placed in an environment about which I had specifically raised safety concerns.
At one point, a legal assistant I trusted decided to leave Dalton Law Firm, and I had the opportunity to continue working with her. In hindsight, I regret not doing so.
After approximately $9,000 spent and significant time invested, I was left without a resolution. Based on my personal experience with Nicole Dalton, I would not hire her again. read more
