Thorough & Proactive!

I have hired Patrick to work on a variety of personal and corporate legal projects for me and my companies. As an entrepreneur, I need my attorney to think like I think and anticipate positive and negative outcomes. Patrick does this very well!

Excellent and Compassionate Attorney

Mr. Norris represented me in a probate matter. He was professional and extremely helpful. He seems to truly care about his clients and takes time to explain things and responds in a timely matter. He doesn't just go through the motions but goes the extra step. I highly recommend him.

Extraordinary Experience - Creative, energetic, diligent, professional

My company hired Patrick's firm on 2 separate occasions, and both times we were blown away by his ability to deliver high-quality legal work in a extremely efficient and responsive manner. In the first transaction, we were selling the assets of a business, and on the second, we were buying anothe...r business which was a complicated and quite frankly "sticky" situation. We didn't want to pay the extraordinary rates some attorneys wanted to charge, but at the same time, didn't want to go "legalzooming" either; so we heard about Patrick from a client that had used him, and set up some time for a consultation. We met, and he told me he would think through how to set up the engagement and would be back in touch with me in 3 or 4 days. Well, the next day I get an email with a very thorough explanation of exactly he proposed to do and at a very competitive rate. He told me it would take 2 weeks, and 6 days later sends me all of the necessary documents the transaction will need 99% of the way complete. We met again, and he explained all of the details with precision, giving us creative and frank ideas as to how how we just should position ourselves and move forward. He then wrapped it all up and we were able to close a deal with very favorable terms, much more than expected, which not only covered his fees, but left us with more equity in our business interests. And best of all, he is a GA BULLDOG! If you are a small business that needs representation hire Patrick without hesitation.

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.
