Meet Nonie Ferguson

Founder

Nonie Ferguson, the heart behind Law Elevated, has been dedicated to the practice of law since graduating with honors from Nova Southeastern Shepard Broad Law Center in 2012. Specializing in Family Law while drawing from a rich background in Criminal Law as an Assistant Public Defender in Florida, Nonie brings a wealth of trial, litigation, and negotiation experience to her clients. Her unwavering commitment to advocacy stems from her belief that the well-being of children should always be prioritized.

Nonie’s journey began as a public defender, where she passionately defended the rights of young children and their families. This early experience ignited her desire to focus her career on family law, leading to the creation of Law Elevated—a testament to her enduring dedication to helping families navigate life’s challenges.

Throughout her career, Nonie has provided steadfast support to individuals facing the complexities of felony charges, recognizing the profound impact such challenges have on their lives and families. This firsthand experience has deeply influenced her approach at Law Elevated, where she strives to guide clients through transformative moments with empathy and expertise.

Nonie resides in Park City, Utah, with her husband Matthew, daughter Annabelle, and their beloved dog Bear. Beyond her legal pursuits, she finds joy in activities like yoga, skiing, and exploring the outdoors, reflecting her commitment to living a balanced and fulfilling life.

In essence, Nonie Ferguson embodies the spirit of compassionate advocacy and resilience at Law Elevated. Her journey from public defender to founder underscores her unwavering dedication to making a positive impact in the lives of her clients, ensuring they emerge stronger and more empowered.

During her tenure as a public defender, Nonie Ferguson spent four years immersed in the intensity of juvenile and felony criminal courtrooms, tirelessly defending the rights of the wrongly accused and their families. This pivotal experience shaped Nonie into the accomplished attorney she is today, honing her skills through numerous jury trials, daily motion practice, and countless hours negotiating plea agreements to protect her clients and their loved ones.

Despite her profound courtroom expertise, Nonie recognizes that litigation often isn’t the best path for her clients, especially when children are involved. She takes pride in her ability to navigate cases away from prolonged legal battles, opting instead for settlement negotiations and mediation. This approach, refined over years of advocating for families, defines her practice at Law Elevated.

Over a decade ago, Nonie moved to Utah and transitioned exclusively to family law, a field she views as her true calling. For Nonie, family law isn’t just a profession—it’s a means to empower families, support children, and guide individuals through life’s toughest transitions. She finds immense fulfillment in witnessing her clients overcome challenges, emerge stronger, and embrace brighter futures.

Beyond legal expertise, she offers empathy, understanding, and a steadfast dedication to achieving positive outcomes. This holistic approach underscores Law Elevated’s unique focus on compassionate advocacy and unwavering support for every client who walks through its doors.

One client once shared with Nonie that after their case concluded, they felt as though Nonie wasn’t just their advocate, but a true friend. Every conversation left them feeling heard and cared for, as if they had just spoken with a close confidant. Nonie holds this feedback close to her heart—it’s more than a sentiment; it’s her guiding principle. She strives for every client to feel supported, understood, and guided through life’s transitions, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both them and their families.

As a longtime resident of Park City, Nonie and her family cherish their community deeply.
