It is without hesitation, I recommend Nicole Ford as professional in family Law and Child Abduction, she is very knowledgeable in different ways: since keeping all sort of documents very well organized and handy which is key during long legal battle to providing her with specialized expertise in othe...r areas which makes her practice be very resourceful. But, if there is something remarkable I have to say about her, is the kind of person beyond her title she is; driven by Ethic, passionate about Justice and Honor; always "on call" to assist and advice. It is well known Abduction is a very stressful and emotional situation; in my particular case, Kids in india, alone in America; Nicole is present all the time to bring me legal assistance but more than that “HOPE” in an atmosphere of trust. If there are people who advocates for fairness, Nicole is one of them…

Nicole M. Ford and I met while she was working as an attorney with Bay Area Legal aid 2014, serving the Greater SF/SJ Silicon Valley community. Nicole was able to achieve a win in my case, because shes invested into her career as a professional lawyer, and by serving well the interests of her client...s. Because of Nicoles' core competencies in filing an effective legal motion; that resulted in unsnarling a 3 year long legal nightmare. Nicole picked up the case, hit the ground running and resolved it favorably in just 7 weeks. Unfortunately, I had the occasion to need an attorney again in 2016. Nicole worked hard to try and resolve the matter but wasn't able to negotiate a settlement because of the other sides--lawyer. This was a very frustrating situation, but Nicole maintains good communication, courtesy and professionalism. Also Nicole was completely fair and honest in her billing and estimates. This was very important to me, because at that time I didnt have much income. Nicole answers questions and returns emails and phone calls promptly within 24 hours or less. Nicole does her job well and brings respect to the practice of law even in difficult and emotional times with clients. Thanks for everything Nicole. This was an unsolicited review of The Law Offices of Nicole M. Ford by a real client that hired this attorney. Thank You.

Nicki Ford came supremely recommended by another attorney because of her expertise within domestic violence law. Nicki returned my initial call while on a personal vacation celebrating the launch of her own practice, following years at Bay Area Legal Aid. After only a half hour phone call, I was em...powered with information and an actual course of immediate action. If this wasn’t enough, Nicki insisted that I contact her at any point until her arrival back on the same coast the following week. I still marvel at the time and energy wasted while contacting 5 other family law practices (many more than double her rate), who did not know the basics of DV law and how to deal with the emergency circumstances that surrounded me. Nicki has been amazing about giving me only what I need to know; filtering yet completely transparent. Any questions I have are met with straight, complete, and easily understood answers. She is always available and responsive when I need her to be. Always. Nicki is appropriately aggressive but with grace, which is something I personally need to coexist. Double bonus: Nicki also possesses a fantastic dry humor. Nicki’s expertise and relations with family court, including monthly meetings with the Santa Clara DA Office (for DV strategies / improvements within San Jose Police Department ) made me feel like I was entering either of these institutions with a legend. Every local DV assistance agency either personally knew, or heard of my attorney. All of this made an incredibly difficult experience less shocking and tragic. Within 5 months, my husband was sentenced and I began the process of divorce. Custody orders were issued alongside leave of state orders...and this all took place while undergoing major dental and facial reconstructive surgery. Never did I think I would get everything I needed (and didn’t know I needed- also practicing housing law) all within one attorney. To this very moment, Nicki remains dedicated to my wellbeing and to the best interests of my child as I rebuild our life. The unthinkable had the potential to destroy me. It is crystal clear my own child’s future is behind Nicki’s driving force. Simply, there is no better match for my situation and no brighter light than Nicki Ford.
