A job well done!

First thing is first. Hello, to everyone that happens to read my review. My name is Tramorris Banks and I chose to write a review for Miss Ohan because of the acceptionally Great job she carries out as a lawyer. Miss Ohan is a very dependable and understanding attorney. She is affordable and she care...s dearly about her clients. To give you an example of my previous statement and her work etiquette, I can remember a time when she met me at the court house and I was kind of unintentionally putting a lot of weight on her at the time. She was extremely patient with my family and I, but i can remember her saying if things keep going at this rate i pray i don't have a heart attack before i'm forty five. Now i'm not sure if that was the exact age she said, but the significance is, Miss ohan has a big heart and it goes out to her clients. Throughout my experience with Nancy, I can say she has been a great lawyer and has even given my life some direction with the little things that she says to encourage. She sees the best in everyone! I could go on all day with the wonderful characteristics that Miss Ohan possess, but see for yourself. Don't be affraid to give her a chance. I promise you she is great.Last, but not least, I want to sincerely, thank Miss Ohan for getting my case thrown out.

Attorney who is real

Ms. Ohan was absolutely wonderful. She's knowledgeable, very honest, very direct and thorough. She told us what she was going to do and did it! She communicated with us effectively, and followed through. If you have ever had the occasion to work with an attorney, you know then, that these qualiti...es are invaluable, and quite frankly not usual! I would highly recommend her!

Assault

Nancy, Represented me in an alleged assault case. She was very aggressive with me at times but did an outstanding job in playing the devils advocate with me to prepare me for my trial. I did not assault anyone and Nancy proved that to the jury that heard my case. I was found "not guilty". She is... very knowledgeable, professional and knows how to represent her clients. I will refer her to everyone that I know and will use her again myself should the need ever arise. Thanks Nancy!

Outstanding Attorney

I went to Nancy's office over two years ago for help with my case. I was unable to afford the high cost attorney and retainer fees and thought I was doomed. I am so glad and fortunate to have found Nancy. She was very upfront and understanding and made me feel comfortable. She did an outstanding... job at trial and was very professional and knowledgeable. I can now move forward free of charges and fines. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a very good attorney.

You will not be disappointed

When I came into her office I was very concerned, but after only minutes she made me feel comfortable. She explained in detail and with complete honesty what she could and could not do for me. Ms. Ohan, never sent me in a direction that she felt would not be in my best interest. Though she was wor...king on my behalf at no time did she ever lead me to believe everything was perfect without informing me of what may not be a great outcome in my situation. She kept me informed and up to date on whatever she deemed necessary at that time. If I had questions she immediately responded. Her personality is not what you would expect from a lawyer, but it was so refreshing to meet someone who you could talk with and not feel as if your concerns were not being addressed. I would highly recommend her to anyone. You will not be disappointed.
