Professional, personable, tenacious... the best.

Matt Norris is simply the best. End of story. I bought a new vehicle in 2022 and had nothing but mechanical and electrical issues. The issues ranged from improper assembly to faulty components and design flaws. In three years of ownership, the vehicle spent over 100 days at the dealership with ov...er a dozen visits for diagnostics and repair. One electrical issue lingered, with no timeline for repair after the replacement of multiple and repeated components. I worked with their customer service for over a year and even tried arbitration (I lost). I contacted no less than a dozen attorneys, and the message was the same: none of them thought it was worth their time or wanted thousands of dollars up front and hundreds of dollars per hour to even hear my story. I was at my wits end when I got Matt’s contact information. I was able to get Matt on the phone very easily, and after about five minutes of explaining my story, he said he would gladly take the case. He didn’t beat around the bush and said he wouldn’t take my case if he didn’t think we had a very good chance of getting some sort of restitution. His fee structure was simple, up front, and fair. I sent him my documents, he negotiated with the manufacturer, and got me a sizeable settlement in only a few months. He was always available to take my calls or respond to my texts. He answered every question with patience, and no question was too remedial to answer. He was professional, honest, and represented my best interest in everything he did. I went from getting nothing at all and living with a sub-standard vehicle to getting a settlement that rectified the wrongs that had been done to me. He wasn’t intimidated by a large automaker and fought for me and for what was JUST. I cannot say enough about Matt Norris. If you have been turned down by others and have been wronged by an automobile manufacturer, Matt is your guy. I will forever be thankful I contacted him.

Above and Beyond

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt Norris on my Lemon Law case, and I can't recommend him highly enough! From our initial consultation to the successful resolution of my case, Matt demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and expertise. He took the time to thoroughly expl...ain the legal process, ensuring I understood every step along the way. His attention to detail and strong communication skills made me feel supported and informed throughout the entire process. Matt was always available to answer my questions and provided valuable insights that helped me make informed decisions. What truly impressed me was his dedication to achieving the best possible outcome. Matt fought vigorously on my behalf and ultimately secured a favorable resolution that exceeded my expectations. His passion for helping clients is evident, and I felt confident knowing I had such a skilled attorney in my corner. If you’re facing a Lemon Law issue, I highly recommend Matt Norris. His expertise, commitment, and genuine care for his clients make him a standout lawyer in this field. Thank you, Matt, for your outstanding assistance!

If not interested, you’ll be ghosted.

I contacted Matt with a potential case and after an initial consultation and submitting all of my case files, Matt simply decided not to contact me back. No professional courtesy to let me know that he was not interested and several emails and calls gone unanswered. Completely un professional.

Lemon Law process made easy!!!

Atty. Matt Norris & his team are top notch! After becoming frustrated with repeated issues with my vehicle and getting nowhere with it being repaired, I reached out to Norris Law Firm via their website. Atty. Matt Norris himself called me & we discussed my case. After listening patiently to my many... complaints about my vehicle, he felt (as I did) that it was the true definition of a "lemon". I was so impressed that I became a client the same day! The entire process was easy, and not the ordeal that I'd imagined. He checked in with me on a regular basis to give me updates on the case, and was very responsive to any questions that I had. In the end, I kissed my old "headache on wheels" goodbye, and never looked back. Atty. Norris was able to negotiate a settlement with the car manufacturer, and in doing so allowed me to have the means to put a substantial down payment on a new vehicle! My only regret is that I put up with my "lemon" as long as I did, and didn't contact him sooner! I NEVER could have done this on my own - I highly recommend Norris Law Firm!

Very Greatful and pleased!!!

My son purchased a $46,000.00 brand new vehicle from a dealership in North Carolina back Oct 2021. The car had less than 32 miles on it and the electrical system shut down and left my son stranded on the freeway. The dealership (Riverside) in N/C could careless about the issue. I called and calle...d and called and pleaded for help from them because they sold me a lemon and took our $18,000.00 down payment and would not return our calls, emails, nothing. We were so upset that my sons 1st car was a lemon, but most importantly Riverside keep Chrysler ignored our plea for help etc. I did my research and Matt Norris law firm on the internet and we were pleased with his and his staffs reviews so we reached out and hired him .. keep in mind that from October 7th 2021 until March 2022 the Chrysler dealership where we live here in El Paso Texas supposedly worked and worked on the car throwing numerous electrical parts at the car with no luck of fixing the lemon. Sunland park dealership in El Paso had the car 6 months also mean while we were still making 600.00 monthly payments and 100.00 insurance for a broke down lemon. Nobody cared at all until I contacted Lemon Law firm Matt Norris and he was very eager to take our case and he jumped on it right away…. With his staff and his knowledge 1 1/2 months later he got out 18k down payment back from Chrysler, the 7 months worth of car payments and FCA, Fiat , Chrysler automotive also paid off the $25k loan balance…. We are so so happy with what Matt and Samantha did for us in such a short time that I would recommend his firm to anyone that needs help NOW!!!!! Thank you so much for everything Norris Law firm…. Fast, honest, loyal and keep us in the loop with everything!!!!!!!! We are happy
