Review

Mindy was incredibly knowledgeable about my situation and explained everything clearly about my case, always keeping me updated throughout the process and putting in incredible work which gave me a huge peace of mind. I was fighting a lot of felony’s and facing major time as I was already a recent p...rior felon. She put forth dedication and determination to fight for me unlike ANY lawyer I have ever had represent me. Her strong work resulted in an incredible outcome that I didn’t think was even possible with what I was facing. I have had 6+ lawyers in the last 3/4 years and would only and highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance. She is truly the best in the business. She doesn't look at her clients as “just another client” like alot of lawyers do. She goes out of her way to help you out with anything you ask her. She truly and deeply cares about the person as a whole and believes everyone should have a 2nd chance at life. Thank you again for everything Mindy.

Review and Appreciation

Attorney Mindy Nolan is a phenomenal criminal attorney. She took the time to get to know me as an individual. She was highly receptive to my needs and expressed empathy for my case. Mindy explained things to me in terms I could understand and provided all possible options for me to decide. She provid...ed knowledgeable insight for the outcomes of these options and was willing to go in any direction I wanted. Mindy was very responsive when I had questions outside our meetings. Her legal representation restored my confidence in the justice system. If you're seeking legal help in a criminal case, you should give Mindy a call asap before you do anything else. Thank you Mindy.

OwI with an accident.

A year ago I found my self in a situation I never thought I would in up in with a OWI and an accident. I called Ahmad & Associates. I was terrified of what could happen. I was facing some serious charges and had really put myself in a bad situation. Mindy took my case and walked me through every sing...le step. She was compassionate, understanding and helped ease my anxiety but was always honest about my case.She answered my questions my email, phone, or even bringing me into the office even if the question was the same question 10 times. Mindy gave me a fighting chance. She reviewed my case from every single angle and never gave up. The outcome of my case was exactly what she expected would happen and I could not have asked for a better outcome. It went from a felony to a misdemeanor with a fine. I highly recommend this law firm.

Mindy Nolan

I was recommended Mindy Nolan by several people in our community. My case wasn’t a typical case she took as I was a witness needing representation. But that didn’t stop Mindy. She went above and beyond for my family resulting in the best possible outcome for the case. She is so compassionate and unde...rstanding. What I really liked was how responsive she was, and attentive in our many court dates. She explained everything to me in a way that made it easy to understand. I was always nervous before court and she had such a gentle way about her that was so calming and relaxed my nerves. She is very kind and not judgmental in the slightest. I have already recommended Mindy to friends in need of legal services and if I should ever need legal representation in the future I will ALWAYS choose Mindy Nolan.

Best Criminal Defense Representation

I had a restraining order which I had violated more than once and was facing a potential federal crime. Mindy Nolan was the best choice my family made when seeking legal representation on my behalf. She was beyond exceptional always went above and beyond always available whenever my family had ques...tions, concerns or simply needed reassurances that my case would either be dismissed or downgraded to a minor offense. Mindy did her best to ensure that my interests were protected and that I clearly understood what plea would offer me the best outcome in the long run as I have plans to go to college. Mindy is without a doubt an attorney that I would recommend to anyone needing the best and most responsive criminal defense in the state of Wisconsin. She worked hard and advocated on my behalf and was able to convince the DA to agree to offer me deferred prosecution agreement. I completed all of the conditions and terms of this agreement and she got my charges dropped and changed to a disorderly conduct ticket. We are grateful to her outstanding legal services. Definitely, Mindy is the BEST!!
