Great and experienced lawyer

Mr. Nona was great at providing the legal expertise and knowledge when I was faced with several charges. He and Lisa explained everything very thoroughly, by always providing prompt replies. I am glad that he made something so stressful and convoluted, turn into a practical resolution. I can definite...ly recommend him confidently!

When you need the truth and best outcome!

I had a DUI and was referred to Jeff Nona from the bails person. Hired Jeff and team and they have always been on point, truthful, guiding and supportive in this 2 year ordeal. What happened is exactly what Jeff shared with me. I did my penance, learned my lesson, ( Thanks Idaho.) Without hesitat...ion, I would use Jeff again and refer others to his office. a breath of fresh air due to their knowledge and execution on your behalf.

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.

Amazing Lawyer

I want to thank the staff at Jeff Nona Law offices, I came to them with a mess of a case very complicated and detailed.... I had many many attorneys tell me I needed an expert to see my way through this mess. After a few conversation about my case he agreed to take it on. I was accused of viol...ating a NCO, which stemmed from a civil protection order which resulted in a new NCO and a PV.. From the same issue. Jeff dissected the issues pending and streamed lined my orders to match and still allow me to cooperant and be a father to my kids.. I personally recommend Jeff Nona and his office paralegal Lisa for any of your criminal or family law, He IS EXTREEMLY AGRESIVE and will help you "land on your feet" !!! Do not hire anyone else he is your first and last phone call!! He will advocate for you aggressively!!! He actually does command the courtroom !!!
