NANCY IS THE TRUTH HIGHER HER

I had a family violence case that was a complete misunderstanding between my girlfriend and I. Her. being caucassian and me being black in this case type i felt as if I would be judged harshly and was already at a loss. After meeting with several previous shark/snake type lawyers who charged a large ...fee just for consultation. I was finally referred to Nancy, my significant other and I met with Nancy and before 10 minutes had passed unlike other law lawyers I had previously consulted with she actually to a very genuine interest even offering relationship advice for how to be better in the future and to mention gave us a more than fair fee for her services. I literally did nothing and my case was dismissed. NANCY IS YOUR BEST OPTION AT FREEDOM AND ACTUALLY CARES DESPITE HOW BUSY SHE IS. THANK YOU FOR SAVING YEARS OF MY LIFE.

Its not how you start, its how you finish!!

With all odds against me in my DWI, I couldn't have ask a better lawyer to handle my case. Forget paying 4 to 10k for a lawyer, Nancy is the way to go! She really fought hard for my case day in and day out. I really thought i was gonna pay alot of money and punishment once the case was done nor did i... thought I was going to be financially prepared as well, but nope! My court fees and surcharges were waive! I was super stoked and relieve! I feel extremely proud and have no regrets for hiring Nancy ohan, if it wasnt for her hard work and effort the outcome could've been worse! I will definitely recommend to anyone to hire nancy ohan as your lawyer! Thanks again nancy and godbless!

Super Attorney

Ms. Ohan quickly accessed charges, circumstances, and proposed a defense plan. Then negotiated the best possible outcome. Better than other attorneys even suggested as possible. Also her fee was by far the lowest of six attorneys I interviewed. She was professional yet seemed to really care that s...he was providing the best legal service for her client. Highly recommend hiring her.

Nancy is the best. DWI charge was dismissed!

My daughter was charged with a DWI and Nancy got the charged dismissed. Although my daughter's breath alcohol level was over the legal limit, the police video clearly showed my daughter was not acting intoxicated in any way. Nancy used the video evidence to ultimately clear my daughter's name. Nan...cy informed me that it's not illegal to drink and drive, it's only illegal to drive when you are legally drunk. At the onset I thought if your breath test indicates you are over the legal limit, then there is no defense. I was wrong and the breath test is known not to be 100% accurate. The process took almost 2 years, but Nancy never charged us any more money and the end results was well worth the wait. Nancy is a tough lawyer and has a great poker face at times. Don't get discourage if you don't see a sympathetic reaction every time you talk to her. You need her poker face when she is fighting for you. She is tough and fights to win.

Posted by John | November 12, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Expungement

Nancy Ohan is one of the best lawyers in Dallas!

Nancy handled my case with such professionalism, expertise and efficiency that quite frankly, blew me away. She explained the entire process at my first meeting, told me exactly what she would do and then executed the many tasks timely and with results! She got my case settled out of court with muc...h less time and money than I expected. She then expedited my expungement ahead of schedule, all the while keeping me informed and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Her and the staff's kindness towards me, yet dedication to my case during this process made a lasting impression on me. I highly recommend Nancy! In fact, she also helped a friend of mine with equally impressive results with my referral.
