    • I recommend Norman Partington.
    • I hired Norman more than 3 years ago.
    • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.

    Norm was very, I mean very personable, trustworthy, knowledeable non-judgemental and informative. If I had a question - he had an answer that was sincere and called it as it is. He represented his law firm in a professional manner. During the (hearing) he showed up ready, prepared and totally outclassed the prosecution. (Not a knock at the prosecutor because he has a job to do himself.) I was in awe as he spat out RCW's and did not once have to review notes. All free flowing and it showed professionalism, I felt he was always one or two steps ahead of the prosecution, he addressed all the concerns and took control with confidence and passion in a field that is unfavorable to most. I felt comfortable with not only Norm but the whole law firm of Rhodes and Meryhew including Alissa and Danica.

    • I recommend Norman Partington.
    • I hired Norman 1-3 years ago.
    • Norman handled my Criminal Defense matter.
    • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.

    Norm was tremendously helpful to me during what was a very difficult time. Arrested for felony possession of a controlled substance, I was referred to him by a friend of mine who had a great experience with Norm when he was tight spot, and told to expect to calm down a lot once I had a chance to talk the situation over with Norm and his assistant, Alissa.

    Sure enough, after a free consultation, I had a much more realistic idea of the position I was in, and felt confident that I had hired a knowledgable and well-connected lawyer who gave me a great chance against my pending charges. This feeling only increased as I met with Norm several times and found him to be very likable and relatable. He is truly dedicated to his clients and ready to fight as hard as necessary on their behalf.

    In the end we reached a settlement agreement and I did not have to serve any jail time. The price was fair and the service was excellent; Norm is truly a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him!

    • I recommend Norman Partington.

    Mr. Partington is a top-notch lawyer. I was charged with a crime in which the DA's office threw the books at me. Norm significantly reduced my charges and resultantly my punishment. I would personally recommend him to anyone for the defense of any crime whatsoever. He is a tenacious trial attorney. When you're thrown into the judicial system, it's great to have someone who is smart, strong, and reassuring in your corner. Norm is the man. Wonderful attorney.

    • I recommend Norman Partington.
    • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.

    I shared office space with Mr. Partington for five years in Pioneer Square, Seattle (2005 - 2010). We practiced the same specialty in law (criminal defense) so were able to observe each other's practice, collaborate on many cases, and cover appearances for each other when necessary. While possessing prodigious empathy and generosity for clients, Mr. Partington also consistently displayed a command of aggressive litigation tactics. Finally, his over twenty years of experience has resulted in strong professional relationships with most prosecutors and an encyclopedic knowledge of judges throughout Washington.

    • I recommend Norman Partington.
    • I hired Norman more than 3 years ago.
    • Norman handled my Criminal Defense matter.
    • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.

    Norm exceeded every expectation I had set during the intitial consultation. Throughout the legal process I came to realize the level that judges, fellow attorneys and prosecutors respect his presence in court. He spoke with authority and continually fought for the very best outcome in each of my court appearences.
    I have recommended Norm to both family members and close friends.
    If I ever find myself in a position where I need legal advice, Norm will be my first phone call.

    • Norman handled my Criminal Defense matter.
    • I have previously worked with 1-2 lawyers.

    Norm has helped me on numerous criminal cases I've had throughout the years. My previous attorney would charge me for review hearings or would not accept my calls after he plead me out. Norm would not only go to my review hearings (it was part of his fee) but would always take my calls, even if it was in the evening or on the weekend. He has helped me get my life back on track and I will be forever grateful to him and his office. Thanks for all your help Norm.

    The whole process was explained well, went smoothly considering we didn't have total control of what would happen, we ended up getting a reduced sentence which is what we were shooting for.
