I hired Nancy Byerly Jones & Associates, Inc. because I wanted to practice law in a more revolutionary way.
"..has been an outstanding addition to our Healthy World Vitality Plan coaching team"
Nancy Byerly Jones has been an outstanding addition to our Healthy World Vitality Plan coaching team. She brings a combination of deep knowledge, skill, and empathy to the coaching process. Her love of learning, and her innate graciousness, are wonderful assets which she shares with our members and her fellow coaches.
"It was wonderful to have you here..."
…It’s obvious that your dedication goes far beyond a paid speaking engagement. It was wonderful to have you here [Iowa Bar Solo & Small Firm Conference/Fall 2006] and I have heard nothing but positive comments.
"..Nancy Jones lowered the stress of law practice"
Meeting Nancy Byerly Jones, retaining her services and listening to her advice, has helped to transform my law practice.
I have been practicing law for 30 years but realized that some of my practices were becoming antiquated and I needed to freshen up my processes and needed a sounding board to make those decisions. Nancy came into my law firm, interviewed my staff, listened to me, and was giving vitally important advice on day one. I didn’t always like to hear it – but I needed to.
Over the next two years, I effectively cut overhead, and implemented a variety of internal law firm practices. Over time, I became more productive, efficient, and profitable, but more importantly, Nancy Jones lowered the stress of law practice.
I now consult Nancy for one hour twice a month and have found those sessions to be important to institutionalize the necessary change.
Nancy Byerly Jones will not come into your law firm with pixie dust or a magic wand. And, she requires consistent commitment from the attorney – her model is definitely a collaborative one. But if you are like me and you realize that change is necessary, retaining NBJ Consulting is an excellent decision.
"..a consultant who understands the value of staff.."
The entire staff appreciates hiring of a consultant who understands the value of staff and who worked with us in such a respectful and productive manner.
My experience in the vitality community
In the recent vitality program with Nancy Byerly Jones, I received not only a wealth of resources on personal and professional improvement, but also a community of lawyers and professionals who honestly shared real world examples of game changing decisions. This program is ideal for anyone who needs a reboot or just an opportunity to reflect.

"She has been there for us for over 12 years.."
We are looking forward to our annual two days with Nancy. She has been there for us for over 12 years whenever anyone of us needed her advice or coaching.
Your retreat presentation was excellent and we all had a great time. Thanks for delivering what was promised and much, much more!
"Nancy is the kind of person you would want to have as a coach."
I feel extremely honored by having met Nancy in January 2022 on zoom in our Vegan Lifestyle Coach and Educator Class (VLCE) through Victoria Moran’s Mainstreet Vegan Academy. Nancy is the kind of person you would want to have as a coach. She is understanding, extremely knowledgeable, very down to earth, empathetic and thoughtful in the way she shares her knowledge and experiences with others. If she offers suggestions to you about any concern you might be struggling with she will definitely follow-up with how you are handling the situation(s) without prying or being pushy.
Even though we have not met in person yet, I can honestly say I feel as if I have known Nancy for many years. I look forward to our continued relationship through our shared interests.
"Great resource of information"
Nancy offers timely, practical advice for your legal practice. Great resource of information
Inspirational Leader
"I feel so fortunate to have met you and to have experienced the Cheerful Chives group.....wanted to thank you, Nancy, for being such an inspiring leader these past 11 weeks. I have looked forward to, and enjoyed each week’s discussions with you and our group."
"..there's depth in her questions which help our members in so many ways."
Nancy has been a bright light in my life, although we met only about a year ago, and only on zoom, she quickly became a dear friend. She has perceptive insights, an ability to understand others and help them discover themselves. She inspires me to become a better coach, teaching by her example. Her humor keeps us laughing, yet there's depth in her questions which help our members in so many ways.
"The results through the years speak for themselves…"
Do Nancy Byerly Jones & Associates’ retreats work? The results through the years speak for themselves…by identifying all of our issues and working through them, we have more time and energy to practice law.
Master Class in Possibility with a Laugh Track
“Nancy Byerly Jones is the rare coach who somehow tucks equal parts heart, wisdom, and rocket fuel into every session. Her upbeat energy made our intensive feel less like hard work and more like a master-class in possibility—with a laugh track. Nancy’s practical know-how, sprinkled with perfectly timed humor, turned each week’s workbook session into an ‘aha’ moment. Revisiting it with her as our coach reignited my commitment to every facet of a healthy lifestyle—and left me wondering if inspiration counts as cardio, because I’m still breathless. Simply put, this was the best intensive I’ve ever experienced. Thank you, Nancy, for coaching with brains, bravery, and a whole lot of heart.”
"Your service far surpassed my expectations.."
Your service far surpassed my expectations…It was the best and probably the most important experience of my professional life! …About your book — Easy Self-Audits for the Busy Law Office — Every lawyer would benefit from just reading this book. If lawyers were to complete the audits and honestly answer each and every question, the book would change their lives. Bluntly put, it should be required reading — yearly. Every lawyer should have at least one copy, one thoroughly used copy!
"..[she] created some awesome resources on risk management and claims prevention."
Although we have never met, over the years I have avidly read and learned a lot from Nancy Byerly Jones. She has written some great articles and created some awesome resources on risk management and claims prevention.
"..publications like yours help bring perspective."
This weekend I pulled out my copy of your “Easy Self-Audits for the Busy Law Office.” It was helpful to me to review many of the sections in that in trying to think through my options. You did the legal community a service in putting that together. I hope others haven’t forgotten what a resource it can be.
I meant all I said as I am not given to false flattery. I have had your book sitting in a bookcase in front of my desk for how many years I don’t know – long enough I still have the 3½ floppy disks too! It’s way too easy to get caught up in the day to day bustle and lose sight of the bigger picture, and publications like yours help bring perspective.
