BoatLaw, LLP

I am a commercial fisherman, and I was involved in a serious boating accident when my vessel capsized in front of Ventura Harbor. I was trapped underwater and barely made it out alive. The experience left me with severe PTSD, nightmares, and intense flashbacks. Nick J. Neidzwski truly listened to what I went through. From the very beginning, he and his entire team treated me with compassion, respect, and understanding. They didn’t just handle the legal side of my case — they made sure I got the help and support I needed during one of the hardest times of my life. I am incredibly grateful for their dedication and care. I would confidently recommend Nick J. Neidzwski and his team to my closest family and friends.

The people at BoatLaw,LLP have truly been a Godsend. They fought for me when things were looking so tough for my future. Through their hard work, we were rewarded the maximum policy limit for my injury. I was able to get care at the top hospital in California and number two in the entire nation. When you are hurt it is very hard to keep fighting everyday. Nick, Allyssa and the rest of his team personally checked on me, fought till we won and continues to support me through this stressful process. I would 100% recommend them. I’ve read reviews like this before and tbh didn’t fully believe them. But BoatLaw really went above and beyond for me. I had no hope, no money, and was severely hurt. Just having someone on your side that cares is huge. Im glad this whole thing is over but I am going to miss Nick,Alyssa,and the whole team at BoatLaw. They never gave up on me even when I wanted to give up. This group of people are amazing and I’m truly grateful for everything they have done for me. Thank you Nick, Alyssa, and the rest of the BoatLaw team, I’ll be forever grateful to you guys.

Our family attorneys’ recommended we hire Nick as co-council for a fishing charter-boat accident I incurred where I sustained a permanent injury. This was a great team recommendation and Nick guided us through to a settlement that was fair and honest and saved us months of anguish and turmoil (and expenses) from going to trial in another state. The Bellingham office is friendly, very helpful and efficient. I highly recommend BoatLaw LLC for any maritime legal issues.

No one wants to need a lawyer. I know that I didn’t. From the moment I was introduced to Nick and his team, their experience, expertise, and general demeanors eased my worries and made me feel secure that there were really good people working on my behalf. And boy did they work. My case was not an easy one. There were a lot of firsts for everybody. Nick, Assal, and the rest of his team pushed through every hurdle lobbed our way with grace and poise, handling each new obstacle with apparent ease. One of my favorite things was that I got to be super hands off. I only joined the process when I was able to — or when I was required to — and no more than that. That fact made it possible to continue to heal and grow even though it took us years to get to the end. And the end has been good for me. Although my situation didn’t seem to contain any possible happy endings, I have obtained some major financial stability and sometimes that’s all one can ask for. Thanks to Nick and Assal, and everyone else on their team, I can move forward in a way I never thought possible, and I hope that whatever situation you’re going through right now, and however dire it is, comes to a similar conclusion as mine. If you decide to work with Nick and his team, I believe this will be the case. Good luck! I know that whatever you’re going through is So. Incredibly. Hard. Life is very unfair, often to the same people over and over again. Luckily, life has also given us Nick and his team, a group of people who have dedicated their lives to helping people in some of the worst possible situations. And they’re so good at it. Great at it! And compassionate and caring and respectful and kind. There aren’t enough adjectives, and there isn’t enough data storage, to describe or hold the amount of gratitude I have for the amazing people that work here and at his other locations.

What an incredible experience Nick and his team made this horrible time in my life be. With out going into details I suffered a real serious injury at work off shore. When I knew my life would be different for ever I started to research for attorneys. My initial choice was a different firm since they had a huge office with many attorneys and I thought that was the way to go, but realized fast I was just another number and client for them. Nick and his team from the beginning were so honest and helpful. They even told me if I didn’t go with their firm that I could still reach out for help if needed. With that being said I went with this firm and signed papers. Nick and his team were always there to answer the phone and responded quickly it truly felt like a family.They would put business aside and truly want to make sure they build a good relationship with their clients. Not once did I feel pressure or anything negative come from Nick and the team. My outcome was great and I am very happy and pleased with the results. As much as I would not like to see any fellow mariners get injured in the line of work, if they did I would recommend them to this Law Firm. Thank you Anderson Carey Williams & Neidzwski, LLP for everything!!!

First off, I want to thank Nick, he really was a godsend. Nick gained our trust from the very beginning, he was very thorough and honest about the whole process and any questions my family and I had, he always took the time to answer all of our questions or concerns. He did not just treat us as business but he really was attentive to our needs and really sympathized with our pain. I also want to thank the firm and the whole team, they did everything they possibly could to help our case, they truly went the extra mile for our family. They were very accommodating to our situation and where incredibly professional and considerate to our pain and loss and well. There are no words that can express how thankful we are for them. Thank you so much for treating my family and I with compassion, dignity and going the extra mile!
