I had a traffic issue that needed to be taken care of and I’m extremely satisfied with the service I received with Nick. He met me at the courthouse, and I forgot my wallet to pay my fine. He not only got the court date moved, but he was able to work it out to where I didn’t have to reappear in court, just send my money to him.
