Nancy Christie Law

Worst experience, DO NOT RECOMMEND. Nancy would waste hours of my time in strategic planning meeting only to show up to the hearings with nothing, completely unprepared. She was typically unable to meet any deadlines and usually put any important filing off until 4:59pm on Friday as the court was closing. She first disappeared for over 1 month, later blaming a 3 day power outage as the reason, only to then disappear for 7 months ignoring all attempts to make contact. When she finally did she gave me an ultimatum to pay off may balance in full or she threatened to drop me, even though our [verbal] agreement was she would carry any retainer-overages until the case was finished. Wildly unprofessional, erratic and quite frankly terrible at her job.

Over two years of bitter divorce battle, represented by a prominent local attorney whose last name rhymes with "hell," and nothing to show for it. Then I switched to Nancy. Within a few short weeks, we had settlement offers to present to opposing counsel, and a settlement conference on the calendar. I can't say enough good about this attorney. She's intelligent, diligent, careful, full of integrity, knows the law very well, and will keep the divorce drama to a minimum. However, if you need someone to fight hard for you, she'll do a great job. Highly recommend you don't hire the attorney whose name rhymes will Hell, and instead go with someone who isn't interested in excessive litigation in order to fill her own coffers.

If you’re pockets are full, Nancy will empty them. She’s the absolute worst lawyer in Nevada County.
