“I am composing this letter with a huge weight lifted off my mind and heart. I retained {Nicole} to represent me ... I was pleased to have met with Nicole and she set my mind at ease right from the start, with her laid back demeanor and personality.
Ms. Wipp discussed with me my options ...she was direct and very knowledgeable of Michigan family law. After meeting with Nicole, I knew she was the right person to fight for my daughter and myself.
Her diligence and attention to detail was impeccable. She took on my case like I was the only client she was working with...she overcame adversity.
She was very well prepared and captured the attention of all who was in the court room with her knowledge and professionalism.
After two grueling days in court Ms. Wipp’s excellent litigation skills far overshadowed the opposition and the Judgment was ruled in our favor!
I was very happy to have Ms. Wipp on my side in the court room. I highly recommend her to represent anyone with a family law issue in the state of Michigan.”
