-Mike R.

I would like to take a moment to say how amazing Rojas and Nickelson Family Law has been. Tara is a phenomenal attorney. Tara and her staff fought hard for my children and I.
Often times our judge would ask Tara how to go about doing things. She and her team are well respected in the court room.

Thank you Rojas and Nickelson Family Law. I have sole legal and physical custody of my children. Which is unheard of in our county. Because of all of your dedicated, meticulous, hard work my children and I can live a free happy and healthy life!

-Rena L.

Tara and Teresa were amazing in helping me keep my son with me when his dad moved to Riverside and tried to take our son with him. I felt like they both were fighting right alongside me and had just as much invested as I did. Tara helped me get the outcome that I wanted and was so easy to work with and made sure I understood everything that was happening. Hopefully I don’t need Tara again, but if I do I know I can call her for help.

-Rebecca W.

I highly praise Tara and her amazing team at Rojas and Nickelson Family Law Office for their strong diligence, legal competence, and professionalism. I have hired other attorneys on my very complex divorce case, and none were as responsive and effective in handling my case. I only wished that I had started with Rojas and Nickelson Family Law Office from the beginning.

-Van V.

I moved over to Rojas and Nickelson Family Law with Keeley when she transitioned from her previous law firm. Finding Keeley was the best thing that could have happened to me in the worst time of my life. I have been able to trust Keeley’s professionalism, honesty, knowledge, and advice through our attorney/client relationship. The trust I have in her made me feel comfortable transitioning with her to Rojas and Nickelson Family Law. I believe this has been a positive move and it was a seamless transfer. I really like the way they handle documentation and that it is easy retrieve documents you may need. I will say I continue to be very grateful for all Keeley has helped me through and I am pleased with the decision I made to follow her to Rojas and Nickelson Family Law. 

-Amanda M.

Tara and her team have obvious strengths. So obvious, I wouldn’t be surprised if every review touched upon what I am about to touch upon here. First, Tara’s team is always one step ahead… Second, I admire the team’s efficiency. To be specific, Tara wrote truly effective statements. Tara was so sharp at figuring out which points the opposing statement made that absolutely needed to be challenged… Third, the team was extremely supportive… Fourth, Tara has a firm understanding of law and a sound moral foundation… Last (and this is the most important strength), the team as a coordinated and united whole made me feel safe.

Dave Y.

My husband and I hired the firm Rojas and Nickelson to represent us in Probate Court to win Guardianship of our grandson who had been living with us for years. The absentee noncustodial father opposed our initial petition that we filed by ourselves, and a trial was scheduled by the Probate Court. Original opposing counsel had been harassing me via text messages, so we needed to hire an attorney to intervene on our behalf. Initially we interviewed Keeley Nickelson. She had another matter scheduled for our trial date, so she turned us over to her associate, Kelsey Thweatt. I cannot say enough remarkable things about Kelsey. She was always very responsive and understood the nature of our case as we prepared for trial. The other side tried to throw several hurdles in our way and Kelsey professionally addressed them. She always filed proper paperwork with the court on time. The day of trial finally came, and we felt well represented and prepared. Kelsey managed to get all the opposing sides exhibits and witnesses thrown out and not admitted because opposing counsel had not filed them in a timely manner. The opposing side was ill-prepared with their whole case. Kelsey presented the facts in the case in her filing and oral arguments. We prevailed and we were granted Guardianship of our Grandson. Kelsey is professional, calm under pressure, understands local rules of court, responsive, and we worked very well together. I highly recommend her.

-Diane B.

Keeley was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the process. She communicated clearly, stayed organized, and helped navigate a difficult situation with confidence and efficiency. I appreciated her attention to detail and steady guidance from start to finish.

-Heather S.

Tara is professional, thorough, organized, and experienced. She told me what I needed to hear, not always what I wanted to hear. Her memory for keeping track of all her clients is remarkable. She and her team served me well for over twoyears throughout a complicated and challenging divorce involving property, a business, and children. I also really enjoyed working with her competent paralegal, Teresa!

-Julie H.

I had tried a few options to save money before coming to Tara and her team. First, I tried a self-help resource and that turned out to be a mistake. Then I hired another attorney and I was hitting walls and getting very unfavorable results. The day I hired Tara, everything changed and things suddenly became much more “fair” in my case. I was able to get a very fair case, and Tara was extremely helpful, available, and invested in my case (and cases like mine) professionally and her passion for father’s rights really showed. In the end, I regretted not coming to her sooner because I got a great outcome in the end and could have saved a ton of money in the long run if I had started with her instead of trying to take shortcuts. I tell anyone who will listen to try and fix their family issues but if they just can’t, go to Tara first, don’t make the same mistake I did! Thank you again Tara!

-Monte M.

I have been working with Keeley for the better part of the last 3 years in a highconflict child custody/support dispute. Throughout it all, she has demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, poise, and legal expertise. I felt like she always understood the magnitude of each court hearing, the implications, and how emotionally charged the case was, all while remaining level-headed to guide us to the better overall solution. She consistently provided insightful, thoughtful advice rooted in years of experience and a deep understanding of family law. Her communication has been clear and timely, and I always felt informed. Most importantly, she (and Kelsey for the past year) remained dedicated to achieving the best outcome for my child. I was very impressed with how she controlled the courtroom during our recent trial – ultimately, winning! I’m incredibly grateful to have Keeley and her team in my corner! They are all true professionals.

-Kale P

I cannot express enough gratitude to the incredible team of women at Rojas and Nickelson Family Law, Inc.

I felt like I had a team of fierce advocates who genuinely cared about my well-being and future. Their communication was clear and timely, and they always made sure I understood my options and felt confident in my decisions. If you’re looking for a divorce attorney who will fight for you with grace, strength, and professionalism, I wholeheartedly recommend this all-women powerhouse. They helped me reclaim my voice and my life!

-Katie S.

I knew Keeley Nickelson was the right attorney for me when I met her. Keeley was able to give me my life back. My divorce was taking years to get settled and, in the process, I lost my mom. It truly was one of the most difficult times in my life. Keeley and the team at Rojas and Nickelson were incredibly empathetic, compassionate and professional. Keeley’s incredibly talented and gifted at what she does, and you’d be lucky if you were able to get her as your attorney.

-Jena A.

ABSOLUTE ROCKSTARS!! From the moment that I spoke with Keeley, I knew that she was the attorney for me. Finding the right attorney these days is exhausting, not to mention expensive. Look no more…this is your team! I’ve been dealing with an 8-year high conflict divorce. Representing myself sometimes and having other representation. Keeley took the time to listen and review my case and was up to speed in no time. There were times when I thought to request her to do something, before I was able to ask, she had it in front of me. When a judge says… “You took the words right out of my mouth!” That’s when you know you have the right person on your team.

Communication…Spot on!
Follow up and Support…Amazing!
Value and Efficiency…Worth it!

Hiring an attorney isn’t cheap, but in the last four months, I’ve accomplished more with Keeley than I did in the last eight years—while spending less. The value, efficiency, and results have been unmatched.

-Travis B.

Tara and her entire team are dialed in. They think 3 steps ahead, hold you as a priority and communicate at a high level while setting realistic expectations.

Of all my divorces, this one was the handled the most professionally and the outcome was exactly what I had hoped for. 5 stars for Keeley Nickelson!

-Bryan T.

-Rio R.

I want to thank Tara and her staff, they were amazing. I can’t say enough about their professionalism and support throughout my entire divorce.
