I promise to provide quality legal representation to each of my clients. I established my criminal defense practice to be able to serve the individual needs of each person I defend. I refuse to shift my clients to an attorney with less experience, because I believe that what's at stake is too important.
I handle every detail of the cases I takes on. I confer personally with my clients throughout the process to keep them advised of developments and take a hands-on approach to providing my clients with the legal protection and advocacy they deserve. My reviews attest to my commitment to outstanding, personalized legal representation.
FORMER PROSECUTOR FIGHTING FOR YOUR RIGHTS
My past experience as a prosecutor gives me a unique set of skills that I bring to the defense of my clients. If you've been arrested and are facing criminal charges, you know that the legal system is intimidating, and even terrifying. It's crucial to have an attorney who can give you the inside story, provide details on what has happened, and explain in clear terms the options available. I know the strategies that police and prosecutors use to get convictions and will fight to defend you at every stage of the process.

"Our family was so so fortunate to have found Nancy King". A few months ago I was helping my wife look for an experienced attorney who can help her brother (my brother in-law) with his criminal case. My brother in-law's case was an extremely difficult case. Right from the beginning when I was cal...

One evening in late February, I found myself arrested and charge with a DUI. The circumstances of my case were unusual. While I was discussing my unfortunate encounter with a friend, he quickly recommended Nancy King. From the very beginning, Nancy demonstrated the professional qualities and dedicati...

Don't stress....just call. The other guys seemed uneducated compared to Ms. King. I am forever thankful for representation by Nancy King. I knew right away, on the phone, that she pays close attention to detail and uses critical thinking and in-depth personal experience to help you move through ...

Nancy King has restored my faith in the legal profession. She was very successfully navigating thru a 15-year-old criminal case against me. With the recourses of her office she was able to get my charges completely dismissed. Nancy has a very pleasant and un-arming disposition I truly believe th...
"I have seen Nancy at work in the courtroom on many occasions and have known her for years. She cares a great deal about her clients. She is absolutely trustworthy, and she has a talent for getting good results. I endorse this lawyer."
"Nancy is passionate, skilled, and a wonderful lawyer. She is a delight to watch practice, and is always willing to fight and go the extra mile for her clients."
"I see Nancy in court on a regular basis. She is well respected in the community and a great advocate for her clients."
"I have known Nancy for several years and know her to be an outstanding attorney. She is well liked and respected among her peers. She is compassionate and patient with her clients yet a strong advocate in dealing with the opposing counsel, and is an accomplished negotiator and trial attorney."
"I have had the pleasure of knowing Ms. King for the past few years. I have found her to be very knowledgeable about the law. She is respected in the courts where she practices, and her reputation and skills help her get good results for her clients. I have not hesitated to refer clients to her and will continue to do so in the future."
"I take great pleasure in being able to share my thoughts about this lawyer on AVVO. My first contact with Nancy was as opposing counsel on a criminal matter in Yolo County, where she was working as a district attorney. Several years later, when she left that office and went into private practice in the area of criminal defense, we met up once again. We talk frequently about the facts and law of our own cases, in an effort to look further than we are sometimes able to see on our own. Most recently, I referred a potential client of mine to her because I believed she would be the better lawyer for the issues at hand. Beyond her legal skills you will find her a wonderful person. It would be a good idea to keep her on your short list of criminal defense attorneys to consider, if you find yourself in that situation."
"I endorse this lawyer. Nancy is a compassionate and kind attorney who has gained valuable knowledge and experience from her years working in criminal law in Sacramento and surrounding counties. She is very diligent and effective in representing her clients."
"Nancy King is a good attorney who understands the system well and is skilled at fighting for her clients. She frequently consults with other local practitioners and continues to hone her valuable skills for the benefit of her clients. She is a true professional, very fair-minded, and thoughtful. I endorse her work."
