Positive experience

Nancy and her legal team made a nightmare situation bearable for me to get through. Nancy and her legal staff were professional and knowledgeable. I received timely updates about my case throughout the entire process. I was pleased with the end result of my rather unique case. Nancy cares about he...r clients and I would definitely use her law firm again for any future legal needs.

Terrible lawyer

She wasn’t very nice at all, she never ask any questions to try help my case didn’t use any of the documents she had me to copy for court. She ignored me at the court house After calling her name several times she acted as if she didn’t here me. I ended up having a trail and she sat and did nothing. ...But as she sad Twiddled her thumbs, And that’s exactly what she did with no re-guard on my life falling apart.

You are not my client yet you are leaving negative reviews all over the place. My actual client thanked me and shook my hand after court.

Very unprofessional and rude

We hired Nancy to help with an adoption process. We were optimistic based on reviews and our initial meeting with her only to be met with a lawyer who didn’t respond, was rude when she did respond, blame us for mistakes (to the other party even!) that we didn’t make, tried to push us to go the “easy ...way” and take short cuts we were not willing to make. Her para legal was just as awful and refused to talk to my husband because my name was listed first on the case (HE WAS THE ONE ADOPTING!). Instead of feeling comfortable and ready for court and positive about our case she made us have more stress and hopelessness and we have moved to look for another attorney. Sure she can give a good price but it was not worth the nightmare she caused by this open and closed case. Very disappointed beware.

Since I was the only one working on the case, the client was never contacted by the paralegal and the paralegal never received any message from them, so we're confused as to how the paralegal refused to talk to her. State Bar rules prohibit me from discussing the case with anyone other than the client who signed the contract. The client's husband did not sign the contract, and therefore, was not our client. Once we received the permission from the client, it was not a problem. This was explained to them. And there was no court in which to be ready. I was only hired to contact the father and send him the affidavit relinquishing parental rights, which I did. Perhaps another attorney would be a better fit.

Consummate Professional!

After two years of confrontation with my ex-wife regarding the custody and visitation of our two children, Nancy swiftly and professionally communicated the repercussions of failing to follow what is ordered in our decree, and she helped provide clarity to my ex on the verbiage of the court order. Na...ncy was extremely patient with me as I pleaded for her help in ensuring that my current wife and I do not continue to have issues with having my ex withholding our children from me in the future. Nancy also greatly exceeded my expectations by checking up on my boys and I after they visited for Spring Break just to see how everything went and ensure that my ex was cooperative. I am certainly on the Nancy Eaton bandwagon, and I look forward to working with her again in the near future. Thank you, Nancy for all of your help!

Outstanding attorney with a rare combination of exceptional experience and geniune compassion

I recently engaged the services of Ms Perry to handle a family law issue regarding my divorce. I was impressed by her depth of knowledge and understanding of my unique situation. She provided me with timely information, was responsive to my questions and was successful in getting the answers I needed... and the outcome that I was looking for. Most importantly, she performed my legal requirements with a level of compassion that is hard to find in the legal profession. I can say without hesitation that Ms Perry is not only an outstanding attorney, but genuinely a good person to work with.
