I was panicked my 19 year old son informed me hours before he was to show up for his arraignment he had been arrested for a couple of misdemeanors one with a mandatory 1 day jail time. This may not seem like a big deal but he is only 19 and didn't need a criminal record and certainly not at the start of his adult life. I found Jennifer Cannon-Unione who not only walked my son and I through the charges she calmed the whole situation. She exudes a persona which garners confidence. She was able to to make the appearance that day as his attorney and have his plea noted without our having to go to court. She then gathered all the material facts of the case and very clearly spelled out my son's options. She was experienced and had even worked with the prosecutor before on another case which was helpful in working a deal on my son's. She was able to get one of the charges dropped and the other handled in such a way my son has essentially no criminal record and he did not have any jail time etc. Jennifer's expertise and knowledge of the criminal system not only saved the day gave me great peace of mind and my son also. If I or anyone I know ever needs a criminal attorney I won't hesitate to go to or refer others to Dixon-Cannon!!!!

Pros: accessible, caring, empathetic, personable,

Cons: none

Mere words cannot describe the unprecedented legal representation and emotional comfort I received from the staff at Dixon & Cannon. A different legal firm referred me to Jennifer Cannon-Unione, as they were not able to take my case. In hearing the agonizing details about my situation, Jennifer immediately set me at ease, and assured me that I indeed had an undeniably strong case. She became my pillar of strength, my protector and my confidant. Through the entire 2 year case, Jennifer was not only professional in explaining each process in complete detail, but she did it in a way where I immediately understood. It has been 2 years of arduous work and she was steadfast in her objective and detailing every pro and con, every possible outcome, and consistently explained everything along each step of the way. I was able to make logical decisions based on her approach and assistance. Jennifer is not only intelligent, she is caring, trustworthy, professional, sensitive, understanding, accommodating and mostly the kind of force you would want to defend you in any situation. I also want to say how incredible the entire office is. Fran, Dixon & Cannon’s office manager, is the most caring, giving, and professional person one could ever hope to meet. She was my first physical contact at Dixon and Cannon and was exactly what a scared and nervous person needs when first initiating legal action. Jim Dixon, whom I was able to get to know towards the end of my case, is an incredible individual. They function as a whole and I would strongly recommend them. Thank You.

Pros: All experiences with them was positive and a pro.

Cons: N/A

Jennifer Cannon-Unione -- Her professionalism and services are such a great help to me that I cannot find words to express my gratitude to her. She helped me fighting a case that worked best for the legal systems and my personal point of view. She is just and down-right-to-the-point. I would absolutely recommend her to whoever needs to have their legal problems solved.

Last year, I faced a charge of assault in fouth degree. I think this was the worst time in my life. I had the oportunity to meet Jennifer in a friend's party. When I talked to her I could appreciate her sharp intelligence and charming personality. I did not think twice when I had to call a lawyer to defend my case. During the process, I always felt her support and commitment. The charges were dismissed few months later. I had to complete few hours of communitary service and a fast anger management course. I will always be grateful to Jenny.

Pros: Good service, easy parking, good atmosphere.

Cons: Non

When I found myself in legal trouble and needed a quality criminal defense attorney I didn't know who to call. I did a City Search, and selected Dixon & Cannon based on their reviews. I am so pleased with their sevices that I am writing this brief endorsement and thank you. I was facing a year in jail on a misdemeaner charge. Right from the start I knew I was in good hands and my concerns were alleviated. Jim Dixon is bright, compassionate, aggressive, professional and experienced. His staff is the best (thank you Fran for all your kindness!). My case was dismissed before a court date was even selected because of the way Mr. Dixon presented it to the prosecutor. I can't thank Jim enough. Jim is an outstanding attorney in many ways and I would recommend him to anyone.

Pros: Talented, experienced, compassionate

Cons: None

I was so nervous when I made the phone call to Dixon & Cannon, Fran the very sweet and personable receptionist hooked me into Jennifer Cannon's office and she could tell immediately that I was upset. Over the phone, she calmed me down right away. I went on to tell my story I was looking at 90 days in jail and believe you me I was one scared little puppy, because I have never been to jail ever in my life. Jennifer took me by the hand and guided me step by step on what was going to take place, we did what she said we were going to do and I not only didn't spend a day in jail, but I didn't even have to do one hour of community service and walked out of the court house with a $43.00 fine and that was it. The team behind Dixon and Cannon are nothing short of amazing, the rates are very reasonable and you will be very pleased with the outcome. In short it was the best phone call I ever made. Alex

Jim Dixon and his staff are REAL people. Jim helped me get out of my case with better results more than I had expected and attached rates that are more than fair. I was facing 5+ years in jail but instead I'm doing community service. His professionalism and experience guided me through my hard times with confidence and less stress. I wouldn't know where I'd be right at this moment if I didn't pick up the phone and called Jim and his team. I would recommend Dixon and Cannon to anyone who is looking excellent results. Thank you Jim.

Pros: Real, Professional, Responsive

Jim is the most outstanding lawyer and person we have ever met. He helped me and my family through a very difficult legal matter. Knowing I could trust him and feel at ease with him was a huge thing. He was there for every phone call and question we had. He is always up front and honest and helpful in every step of the way through the horrible legal court system. He took my nightmare away.

She is always there with a smile on her face and a friendly voice on the phone. Thank you very much from bottom of our hearts.

If you are reading this, you may be in the same situation I was in. My son was in a legal mess....I was scared to death. I found this site, read the reviews, went to the website and instantly felt a comfort by what I read. Jennifer and staff made me feel SO comfortable. I was treated with much compassion. The case was handled professionably but also warmly. Jennifer cared about each person involved, we were people, not just clients. Her staff is equally awesome. If you read this and feel lost, PLEASE do not hesitate to call. If you need a lawyer, they will go above and beyond if they can and I appreciate that from the bottom of my heart! Jennifer and Co...Thanks for everything. You have no idea how much your attitude, ethics and behavior turned a terrible experience into something that I could get through !!
