Great hands on services

Nancy bends over backwards to provide quality and affordable legal services. I have used her for 2 cases in past 15 years, each with much success. She treats me with respect and works with me on payments. I will always use her when possible!

Incredible Attorney

I have been thru SEVERAL attorneys during my divorce & Nancy has been amazing. She really cares & has done more for me than any other attorney at a fraction of the cost. Divorce is awful, but it is so reassuring to have the support & defense of a persistent, strong advocate fighting for you when yo...u feel powerless. My only regret is not meeting her earlier in this process. I cannot say enough wonderful things about my gratefulness for what she has done for me.

Professional Services

I was referred to Nancy from a good friend that had used her to obtain and divorce and for a probate case. Nancy was very helpful and was able to close the cases in relatively quick amount of time. Her fees were reasonable and she was always available to speak to by telephone and I could contact her... by email even on weekends. I would hire her again for any legal issue.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
