Superstar!

Nancy has recently guided me through the lows of managing the legal process after the passing of my mom. Her professionalism is second only to her personal ability. She has made the tough job of overcoming legal contracts from out of State a piece of cake. She’s a straight shooter who will tell it li...ke it is while still being sensitive to the human aspect of legal matters. I value her opinions and guidance at a level that was once only reserved for the closest of friends. I highly recommend you consult with Attorney Norelli if you need an experienced, and passionate attorney in Charlotte. *Get in touch for a full reference.

Mediation lawyer | Mar 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Nancy brings such a sense of calm and understanding to her mediation practice. My client felt "heard" and helped by her, even though he was appearing via Zoom from 4 states away! I endorse Nancy with my highest regards, and look forward to working with her again in the future."

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.
