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.

I hired Nancy Byerly Jones & Associates, Inc. because I wanted to practice law in a more revolutionary way.

Your retreat presentation was excellent and we all had a great time. Thanks for delivering what was promised and much, much more!

I wholeheartedly recommend Nancy's whole food plant-based lifestyle coaching to anyone seeking a compassionate, healthy, and fulfilling way of living. Her unique blend of warmth, positivity, humor, and love for animals and people creates a truly transformative and inspiring coaching experience for everyone.

Thank you, Nancy, for your incredible dedication and for making a positive difference in the lives of so many, including mine!

“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.”

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.

"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."

......well worth the time and exceeded my expectations. We had a great attorney group w/very diverse backgrounds, but many similar challenges. Discussing them openly was the best therapy ever! Kudos to Nancy!
Outlets like this are sorely lacking in the legal profession. We rarely find the time to relax and reflect. Nancy quarterbacked us all wonderfully. Her energy and commitment should be shared with others.

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.

…[Easy Self-Audits…] one of the most valuable books I have read in 20 years on practice management

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.

…I wanted to let you know that the ____ [client name omitted to protect confidentiality] finally got their separation agreement signed. It is always a pleasure to help out someone who has mediated through you.  The quality of the mediated settlement really stands out.

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.

Working with Nancy Byerly Jones & Associates offered us a non-threatening approach to working with a serious problem. My office staff loved the beauty of the seminar location. We were put at ease and got a lot of much needed preventative maintenance done.

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.

Nancy offers timely, practical advice for your legal practice. Great resource of information

When I met Nancy in our Healthy World Vitality Plan (HWVP) class it was very clear she has had considerable experience dealing with and encouraging people. I’ve enjoyed being in class with her again this spring where she is serving as a HWVP coach. Nancy has shared many nutritious and tasty recipes with the group. She also is very responsive to any inquiries and offers relevant resources for those that are interested in learning more. In addition to sharing tips for healthy eating, her enthusiasm for rowing and staying active is very contagious. Nancy demonstrates a strong dedication to living a vital, healthy vegan life. Her coaching style is very kind, upbeat and supportive. Her knowledge and experience can help you become healthier through plant-based eating and other lifestyle changes.

Nancy is a great, knowledgable lawyer with great leadership skills and an excellent coach.  [She] is truly a gifted person and has command on running a tight ship.  She makes it happen, is a pleasure to know and to have been in her group.

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!
