Excellent Representation

The best experience I have ever had with Legal Professionals. Words such as, Personable, Professional and Proficient just skims the surface of describing the quality and care Christopher Norman displayed in all of the months he worked my case. I highly recommend his services. He was able to achieve a... victory in my legal matter without long term litigation. He was able to walk me through the process answering any of my questions and was always accessible! If you want effective and knowledgable representation with a personal touch, look no further!!

cares, empathic, not a number a person

Chris keeps me informed about progress of the case, returns emails and calls in a timely manner. In short, he cares about you as a person. And there is no stupid question. I am thankful he is representing me.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
