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.

The best result possible

I had been charged with a felony. I knew nothing about the crazy world of courts or criminals and law which is confusing and tricky. A good attorney does. Nancy was the 4th of a string of attorneys I sought, the others told me to simply plead guilty and there was more of a salesman feel about them t...hen actual legal knowledge and skills. Nancy has these qualities. To be honest, my mother researched hard until she found Nancy. And I'm glad my mother persisted and convinced me to go to her. I was reluctant to try another attorney at that time. Nancy achieved in getting the felony dismissed. This is what you need in an attorney. I believe she believes in her client and puts her heart in them which allows her to the best at her job.

Nancy and Ed save lives

My family and I learned the hard way, you can't put your life in the hands of just any attorney and expect a proper defense. Having spent three years with a court appointed lawyer in a federal case that went from bad to worse, we did what we should have done in the firstplace and sought to choose ou...r own defense team. Nancy and Ed were godsends. Their work as former prosecutors, demonstrable knowledge in arguing law and their focus on a clientele with mental disabilities (considering I have autism, this is very important) made them an immediately indespensible vanguard for my best interests during serious criminal prosecution. Before we had even hired them they were keeping on top of my case and checking up on my frequently by phone. This was something that impressed me greatly as no other lawyer I had reached out to had done anywhere close to the same. They are caring and easy to talk to and I can tell that I am more than just a client through the mill, but a human being worth investing their time, expertise and even emotional currency on. This is profoundly touching and has made me feel safe. They were able to secure me the lowest possible sentence in a case my previous lawyer painted as grim and would end in an inescapably draconian manner. These two turned it all around from day one. I am proud to have them as my lawyers.

Defendant

Excellent investigative work, paired with a personal investment where I felt as if she was working directly for me. I appreciate her willingness to listen and understand my point of view on what happened opposed to what the police had on their statement. Ultimately Nancy's diligence allowed the case ...to move efficiently and in the end I had multiple charges dropped and a reduced sentence for a plea bargain. In total I spent the same on paying for her lawyer fees as I would've for the full sentence. Honestly, I think she saved me money.

"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"

"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."
