Nancy Kardon spent an hour on the phone with me

If you have a federal criminal case the best attorney you can have is a former federal prosecutor (AUSA). Most all federal judges were once federal prosecutors and they all know each other well. Nancy Kardon spent a good hour on the phone with me answering all of my questions. Hopefully she will agre...e to take my case and my next review will be thanking her for a slam dunk easy winner. If I’m willing to put my life in her hands she is definitely someone you can also trust and respect. Attorneys like her are very rare.

OUTSTANDING: something that rises above and excels others of the same kind

Attorney Nancy Kardon represented me in a wrongfully charged domestic violence case. I spoke with a dozen attorneys before hiring Nancy. From my first conversation with her, I knew she was different from the rest. After listening to my story, she pushed for dismissal and sealing of documents. She ...was successful with both. Attorney Kardon is authentic, smart, professional, and extremely knowledgeable of the law. She is easy to work with and quick to return a call. She handled every step of the process with confidence, conviction and kept me well informed. I am personally grateful to Nancy for the outcome of the case and her respect and belief in me, which helped me through this unfortunate situation with my dignity intact.

Highly competent. Diligent. Great results

Nancy represented my adult daughter in concurrent DUI and DV cases. Through a series of unfortunate events, my daughter was facing 5 charges, including a felony drug charge, DUI, traffic infraction and 2 DV charges. Referred to us by my daughter's counselor, Nancy proved to be incredibly warm, ...kind and had a keen understanding of not only how to effect the best outcome, but a desire to really get to know and understand my daughter. As a team, we were able to talk about desired outcomes, what sort of help my daughter needed (in her case rehab, monitored sobriety and continued counseling). She gave my daughter actionable tasks to complete prior to going to court and held her accountable to complete these tasks. She was able to negotiate a very fair and reasonable plea deal and got the felony drug charge + 2 other charges dismissed + negotiated a deferral on the DV charges. The outcome was not without consequence, but the resulting consequences will inevitably benefit my daughter versus being punitive. Nancy is tough, firm, incredibly intelligent, responsive, concise and strategic. We would highly recommend her to anyone (although in all honesty we hope not to be in need of her services again).

Mrs. Kardon resolved most complicated Domestic Violence case

She's an outstanding lawyer. Suppose I talk about the experience level. I speak first about her experience; I will say she's a type of attorney not accept any case. She takes the only case that she believes in, the court may call you offender, but she can tell that you are a victim and tells her the ...truth. She's not that type of an attorney search for money; she's search for who is rights and who's wrong. When I talk about her personality level, I will say out of the stand. She's available on the weekend as well. I don't know how she manages that. If I rate her 5. she deserves another five stars. My wife set me up, and she's didn't forget anything to let me get out of this case. Mrs. Kardon believed in me and accepted my case. She told me from day one what will happen. In my scenario, two years probation and after that, dismiss the case. She's responded to my text message, email even at night time. Mrs. Kardon, you are rock. I hope from my heart. My daughter will be successful like her. Thank you again.

Highly Effective - Great Results

Nancy Karden represented my adult son, charged with drug related crimes in federal court. She was always professional, keeping me and my son informed and promptly responding to all questions. Ms Kardon knows the law and she understands the system. Not only that she knows the people involved in ...that system and has great rapport with all people involved. Importantly, she took the time to know my son. The case she built recognized his value and helped the court see those values as well. Nancy Kardo worked hard for us and our outcome was far better than I had hoped for. I heartily endorse Nancy Kardon.

"Ms Kardon was kind enough to take the time to direct me to the right places in CO to get documents needed to proceed with a case here. She saved me from wasting hours of time which I need to successfully prosecute a case here in NC. Thank you so much and am glad to know I now have a kind and competent lawyer practicing in both CA and CO to refer clients to."

Criminal defense lawyer | Jan 27

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Nancy Kardon has an extraordinary ability to quickly and intelligently determine what a criminal case is all about. When Nancy and I opposed each other when she was a prosecutor in the United States Attorney’s Office, Nancy was different from other prosecutors in that she was able to set aside her ego and listen carefully to the defense presentation. While Nancy is an outstanding trial attorney, she was also willing to dismiss charges or recommend leniency when the facts and circumstances of the case supported that position. Nancy’s listening ability corresponds to her ability to speak and get others to listen to her. It is an art form that I have rarely if ever seen in other lawyers. She is aggressive and compassionate at the same time. I am thankful Nancy is now my law partner"

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Nancy Kardon is as good as it gets in the criminal defense arena. I practice family law and have referred a number of my clients to Ms. Kardon who has provided excellent service. Ms. Kardon has a high rate of success of either substanitally reducing criminal charges before they are filed or preventing the filing of any criminal charges at all. She is very experienced having worked for the U.S. Attorney's Office for a number of years. I would highly recommend her services. Laura Westray, Esq."
