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.

Nancy saved me and completely dismissed my case.

Nancy is the definition of an amazing attorney. What I appreciate the most about Nancy is she does all of her own legal legwork. This makes such a difference and why I would recommend her over any large law firm. Nancy takes the time to understand EVERY detail of your case, and you can trust that she... will bring that to court. If you are searching for an attorney for any criminal offensive, hire Nancy. I have had terrible experiences with large law firms where you are just one in the shuffle. If I have learned anything over the past few years is a good attorney like Nancy will cost you WAY LESS in the long run. I was in a unique DV case in Jeffco and Nancy was able to get the case completely DISMISSED! Her reputation alone holds so much value. The DA and Judge recognized that Nancy knew her/my case in and out and the county ended up completely dismissing my case before having to go to trial. If you are searching for a solid attorney you would be lucky to have Nancy represent you. I know I was, last minute I called her and I was so thankful she was willing to take on my case. I have had terrible experiences with large law firms and I would guide any person away from one. I have found at these firms you are just one of their many cases and you will not get the attention your case deserves. The fact that Nancy handles completely everything removes the potential of errors rom paralegal or office staff. Nancy was available for every one of my emails, text, or late night calls. I never would have received this type of treatment at a large firm. You can tell Nancy is passionate about the cases she takes on and will give you the right advice for YOU and YOUR case. I cannot tell you how many times I have had attorneys suggest certain paths to take just because it lined their pockets. This is in no way Nancy and was one of the main reasons I appreciated her representation. When Nancy takes on your case she is all in and you will quickly see results and get constant updates. I would say for all of services Nancy provided she was a great value attorney and I know hiring someone else I would have ended up paying more with a less desirable outcome. Don't mess around with some discount attorney and save your situation, whatever it might be and hire Nancy.

Grateful We Hired Nancy

We hired Nancy to defend our son who was charged with Federal drug trafficking. When our kids were younger, we watched a cop show and I said “If you’re ever in trouble with the law, don’t call me cause I won’t help.” But when our son was charged, I realized two things: 1) I might never see m...y son outside of prison in my lifetime. 2) There was a possibility he’d go to a med to high security prison. So I got online and started looking for the best attorney I could find who was expert in Federal defense. Even tho Nancy’s name kept popping up with rave reviews, I ignored her because I mistakenly thought my son would prefer a man. But after a full day of vetting other attorneys, I finally called her. Within the 15-20 min. conversation, I knew she was the one. She was confident in her ability to handle his case and had a no nonsense approach. The other attorney’s I talked to acted confident too, but I didn’t get the sense they could get the job done to the same level as Nancy. Now it’s one thing to hire an attorney, but you really don’t know if you’ve made the right decision until the work begins. Here’s what I can tell you: She spent a year working on my son’s case. During that time, she picked up the phone when I called, and always responded quickly to other communications. She dug deep and fought hard as each new hurdle came to light. Sometimes it seemed every day we’d get more bad news on what they were heaping on him. Nancy went beyond the call of duty on more than one occasion. The year of defense was a roller coaster ride of highs and lows, but the one thing that remained constant, was the peace of knowing he was in such good hands. Her hard work paid off. He’ll be a free man in a few years and he’s going to a low security prison. One grateful mom..

Calm and Logical

Nancy is someone that you can rely on in a difficult situation wherein there is a lot at stake. In our case, Nancy used her experience and legal knowledge to calmly and logically walk us through the steps to a successful outcome (wherein the entire matter was dismissed). Nancy's skills and demeanor... are the qualities that you should look for in legal counsel. We are very grateful for her service and I hereby recommend Nancy without reservation.

Strong, comforting, hard working, and very intelligent

It began when I called Nancy just to share a story and ask a few questions. She spent a solid hour on the phone with me helping me to recognize a situation that I had found myself in. After already spending such time with me, she then offered her services to be hired, and was very enthusiastic that s...he was the best person for the job. It turned out she was exactly that. After going through one heck of a life shattering experience, Nancy was able to get the case dismissed 2 months before trial. We spent a total of about 9 months working on it when she called with such incredible news. On a regular basis, she was contacting me with more information, sharing the changes, asking more questions, and truly teaching me about everything along the way. I was completely oblivious to anything in this realm, courtroom, law, and legal lingo. She has a welcoming and comforting aura about her. She never dropped the ball, and it ultimately kept me sane, and got the case closed. Couldn't be happier with her support and work. I wouldn't hesitate to call her for anything you might need. She's great, and I can move on with my life because of her.

"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."

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"

"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."
