Straight forward, No-Bs, Down to earth, friendly lawyer

I was in deep when I was recommended Jeff by a friend, upon meeting him I knew that he wasn't playing around. He's intelligent and very reliable, he knows his stuff and is well known within the courts. I was facing 15 years prison and three felonies when I hired Mr. Nona. At the end of the ordeal, I ...got three months jail, and one Felony. After that I hired Mr. Nona for two other cases I had going on. Each time the case was handled with precision and speed, with minimal effort from myself. I highly recommend Mr. Nona to anyone facing some troubles. Friendly, efficient, and affordable.

In your corner

When I contacted Mr Nona, I was very sceptical about a lot of things, lawyers in particular, and very nervous about my situation. When I met with Mr Nona he really set me at ease, he made sure I understood my situation and what I was going to need to do. He always made me feel like he had no other cl...ients. Lisa is great too quick response with answers when I was asking questions. They are who you want on you side when things are wrong.

Competent, knowledgeable, experienced

Jeff is a very experienced, competent and knowledgeable attorney. He is a no frills, no BS kind of guy who says what he thinks and doesn't hand hold. If you're looking for someone who will give you the warm fuzzies, this is not the guy, but if you're looking for someone who will do his job, not rob... you or string things out and who knows his business, Jeff's definitely who you want.

Great lawyer (very efficient and affordable)

Jeff took on my case after my previous lawyer passed away and did not charge me for it. However, his rates are very comparable to my first lawyer, and he was also very affordable. Jeff was very knowledgeable regarding my situation, and was very straightforward with me about what I should expect. I wo...uld definitely recommend him to anyone that was in a similar situation.

How to live life.

Rude business associate. No hello, no good day. Just, what is your charge. I understand people are busy, but it doesn't take much to be considerate of people at the lowest of their life.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m really sorry for how our interaction came across—that’s not the level of care or respect we aim to provide. You’re absolutely right that even in busy moments, a simple greeting and a more considerate tone can make a meaningful difference, especially during difficult times. We take your feedback seriously, and I’ll be addressing this directly to ensure we do better moving forward. Everyone deserves to feel acknowledged and treated with empathy, and we clearly missed the mark here. I appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
