Awesome Attorney in Dallas!

I highly recommend Ms.Nancy Ohan to anyone that is looking for a lawyer. We have received several letters from attorneys who wanted to represent me in my case (Class A Misdemeanor, Family Assault), I checked Ms.Ohan's mailer and it looked promising of all and I was most impressed with her track reco...rd and strategic approach to winning. The next morning I was at her office to meet and talk, I immediately trusted her from my first visit and hired her. I was worried about my immigration status as I am a Non-Immigrant and in the process of getting my GC, the immigration status has been a problem for people with convictions and the US Immigration law requires USCIS to prevent convicts from immigration benefits. I spoke to couple of lawyers before talking to Nancy, but none got straight to the point. We are very pleased with her work, She started on my case early this year and she just got my case DISMISSED (which was much needed for my immigration). She told us it will take about 6 months and she was going to get it dismissed, she just did that. I was charged with family assault case against my wife and Ms. Ohan understood our situation and we received a great representation. She is all about the outcome of the case and not about money. I never had to go to the court at least once. She was always patient with our questions and VERY prompt in responding. Her knowledge was outstanding and the whole process was handled professionally and timely. I will forever be grateful to her for handling my case. In addition, the fees was very reasonable. Thank you so much Nancy for all your help!!

Excellent Professional Attorney

I consider Nancy Elizabeth Ohan as God sent to me. She understood how emotionally torn up I was about my DWI case and I felt that she was genuinely concerned for my emotional and mental wellbeing, as well as for my legal predicament. She was honest about what I was facing and communicated effec...tively throughout my case. She made me feel that I wasn’t just another case, or a number, but a human being who had made a mistake. Ms. Ohan is a straightforward and experienced attorney. She brought my case to swift resolution (as swift as the legal system moves that is), helping me to get this experience behind me and move on with my life. Her professional fee for legal services rendered is the best of five attorneys that I consulted with before I informed Ms. Ohan that I would like to retain her. I respect, appreciate, I am very grateful and I just can’t say enough good things about Ms. Ohan. I would highly, highly, recommend Nancy Ohan, as a knowledgeable, experienced attorney to a family member, friend, or anyone seeking legal help. If you want great legal representation, you need to hire Nancy Ohan to represent you.

DWI Not Guilty !!!

I hired Nancy about a week after getting arrest for DWI. She was an affordable attorney that knew more about DWI cases then I thought. She understood the situation i was in, being a tow operator for the last 12 years. She was very upfront with letting me know what was going on through out my whole ...case for 2 years. After receiving so many offers from the prosecutors, Nancy finally got them to drop the breath test from the case, which was the only evidence the had. We then took case to trial and receive a NOT GUILTY verdict. Thanks Nancy again.

Very professional and helpful, wouldn't recommend anyone else but her!

She took my DWI case and helped me out the best she could, everything came out favorable for me, she also helped me get back my license with out charging me for that, not many people out their that are still in it to help people and not for the money. This is the person to call if you ever need help!...

The VERY Best DWI lawyer in DFW

Ms Ohan is a consummate, highly skilled professional who has the interpersonal skills to relate to all people - along with the aggressive tone require in the court room setting. I was charged with a DWI, with my breathalyzer test on the low side of 0.08. Ms Ohan was able to effectively defend me o...n this charge and get a Not Guilty verdict from the Jury. Without doubt it was her skills and experience that enable me to effectively overcome the many obstacles in the way of obtaining the Not Guilty verdict. I highly recommend her as a competent and thoroughly well rounded lawyer!!! (Her fee is also extremely good value!)
