Fred has represented me a couple of times over the past few years. He is always responsive, professional, and has been able to produce positive and expedient results each time. I would recommend Williams and Nickl to anyone dealing with licensing issues.
Owner response
Thank you so much! We love being the “Go To” guys for licensing issues.
Fred is very responsive and helped me through a scary time with IDFPR. Very quick timeline and got things done! deff reccomend him, he is very kind!
Owner response
Thank you so much for the kind words! Bill and I care about all of our clients and do our best to make what could be a scary experience into a smooth process.
Mr. Fred Nickl is an amazing attorney he got me a confidential agreement with the board of pharmacy for me to be able to continue practice what i love after making some bad decisions that would've affected my license. He gave me a second chance to practice pharmacy and honestly a second chance for a normal life too. He cared about my case more than me even. Thank you so much for everything! If you're in doubt this is your sign to hire him immediately.
Owner response
Wow, thank you so much for such heartfelt words. We really appreciate it.
i just had my FOID hearing today. id have written this pre hearing and nothing would have changed. i lost my gun rights due to a teen years screw up. many decades later decided to address. much research, much google much reading reviews. called williams and nickl, felt sense of professionalism and zero 'sales' . met with fred for a lunch talk. i very much got the feeling if he thought i posed a risk he'd have diplomatically turned me away. ethics matter to these guys. most of my interaction was / is with a remarkable professional Bill Cisar. dear goodness his level of precision in communication and execution is ninety ninth percentile. he plans, and plans for the back up plan. services were not cheap( wont be specific as im not sure discussing their billing protocols is kosher) so yes, not cheap but by the end i honestly wondered if they underbill, they did that much and did it so well. i got my rights back fyi. if you want to work with a duo of kind compassionate articulate meticulous professionals...call these folks: best of holidays to all
Owner response
What a truly nice review, we appreciate your time in writing this and are grateful that you had a great experience!
Fred helped resolve a complaint from someone who doxed me online and tried to have the State board discipline me over an online argument and administrative matter. He outlined for me exactly what he needed from me and what I needed to do in order to satisfy what the state would want and then he took over. After getting him the requested information, he quickly and efficiently had the matter closed out within days with the IDFPR. I highly Recommend Fred for anyone who has a case opened against them.
Mr. Nickl was incredibly diligent, respectful, and supportive throughout my experience. He went above and beyond to ensure my case was resolved with minimal distress and my concerns were addressed completely. I am grateful for the support I received and would definitely recommend his services!
Owner response
Thank you so very much for such a heartfelt review. We work very hard for our clients!
Mr. Nickl and Mr. Cisar were extremely knowledgeable, supportive, and above all, compassionate during a very trying and frightening experience. If you are ever at risk of licensure loss, penalization or other challenges, I cannot recommend this practice any more highly.
Owner response
We believe our clients’ professional licenses are the most important things. And we appreciate your kind words so much.
Very responsive, reasonable cost and very proactive in resolving a prolonged case with IDFPR. I strongly recommend Fred NIcki for any physician struggling with the craziness of IDFPR.
These gentleman are the REAL DEAL! From our first phone call I felt confident I had found the right lawyers to help reinstate my foid card, and they did just that. With a professional approach.. they answered questions promptly, prepped witnesses, and then went on to absolutely crush it on trail day. Look no further if you want a solid team in your corner!
Owner response
Wow, what a great review! We love fighting state agencies and helping clients obtain licenses.
This is the most honest law firm that I've ever experienced in my life, dealing with Fred was just a great experience because he was extremely helpful with one of my issues that he really didn't need to really help me, but once I reached out to him and he took action right away and handled it professionally and very honestly, I would recommend this law firm with all my heart.
Owner response
