Well worth the money!

Jeff listens to your concerns and offers his expertise; he explains the predicament you're in thoroughly along with the choices you have & the possible outcomes & repercussions. He's direct and expects you to be honest & forthcoming as well. Jeff is clearly great at what he does and well worth the mo...ney & I'd hire him again in a heartbeat!

u. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without Jeff Nona

Most of us at one point in our life will have made a life altering mistake right? I certainly did. I know one thing to be certain when it comes to a mistake that carries a legal consequence, it’s crucial on a personal and legal level who you choose to have represent you. I honestly don’t know what I... would have done without Jeff Nona and Lisa. I called many attorneys and once I was referred to Nona Law and connected with Lisa, it was clear who I wanted to represent me. What a beacon of hope they became to be at a time when my life was crashing down around me. I needed representation on two matters and I was In complete fear, ashamed, and overwhelmed with what felt like a likelihood of a impossible satisfactory resolution. Not only was Jeff able to defend me from an unjust citation, Jeff’s confident yet calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor throughout. Jeff Nona is the pinnacle of DUI and criminal law defense and for many reasons and will share just a few. I was in need of a great law firm to defend me first thing in the morning after I was arrested over the weekend. Somehow Lisa made it possible that Mr. Nona represent me for court that morning. I must say every step of the way they have came through in every way. They are diligent at every course of the case, have incredible communication skills, and always worked hard until the very end of the case. Not a single detail was ignored. All my calls and questions and emails were answered very quickly. Lisa has a natural and magical way of helping me calm down and explaining the process while reassuring me of what to expect. It’s clear to see that Lisa has years of experience and she has gone above and beyond for me this entire process. This is an incredibly skilled and knowledgeable legal team. They were patient with my questions, sensitive to my situation, and did not make me feel like I was a nothing just because I made a mistake. They never promised me anything but they sure did show me they are their word, and followed through with every action. IMPRESSED beyond measure. Jeff Nona and Lisa made me feel like they took my case personally and really cared about a suitable outcome of my cases. What attorney do you know that actually takes over an hour of his time to have a heart to heart discussion with you on how you arrived to this in your life? Not grilling me or judging me but rather investing in his client. What did I need to look at in my life and possibly change? A blue print of what needs to happen to get through this mistake legally, but also to ensure I’d never return. JEFF NONA does!!! An attorney that is as invested as he is, GOLD! I can see why he is so well respected within the courts and his peers. There is no one like him. Honest, straight up, (which I love) and isn’t afraid to take on what he needs to fight for you and what is right. He’s the kind of man that is that special type of a warrior that makes the world a better place. I can not recommend them enough. If you or a family member is in need of a criminal law defense team, you cannot do better than Jeff Nona and Lisa. I refer to them as The Dynamic Duo! These two are the true professionals you not only want, but NEED on your side. 5 stars aren't enough! Without a doubt, the BEST Criminal law defense attorneys around! Choosing Jeff Nona for DUI defense was one of the best decisions of my life. Literally. With immense respect & eternal gratitude, Thank you both. ~ Mindy H.

Very good attorney got a better than expected outcome on my case would definitely recommend

Posted by Matt | November 06, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Don't roll the dice!

We live in California and our son was arrested on very serious charges in Boise. Our world was upside down with no local contacts and what felt like a dice roll selecting an attorney who could help. Look no further than Jeff Nona! He is professional, experienced, knowledgeable, responsive, and he ...knows how to achieve the best possible outcome for your situation. His staff and partnership with a fair and reasonable bondsman are second to none. You could pay more (a lot more) for a less experienced lawyer, but if you don't let Jeff have your back, you're back to rolling the dice!
