Knowledgeable, Professional and Best Attorney in Jacksonville

Wendy has been my attorney since 2012. She is knowledgeable and well versed in Family Law. She is very responsive, she will personally answer emails within a couple hours. She is honest and always straight forward about what the law allows or doesn't (putting personal emotions aside) so, I was never... mislead into a fairytale belief and then blindside "when things didn't go my way" (personal emotions, not the actual law) Wendy answers email questions even after my case was closed and meets with me for legal advice when I ask. "The Father" has re-opened the custody case again recently and she was hired within hours because she knows the case, she knows the law and she gets the job done. She is fair, doesn't overcharge for things other attorney's do. She is an advocate for mediation and when the other party refuses she fights for her clients! Not only is she a lawyer but she is a mom as well so, she has empathy for her clients and most definitely has my daughters best interest at hand. Wendy is personable which makes this very difficult time that much easier to get through. She listens and remembers your personal situation. She is passionate about her job and her clients I highly recommend Wendy Norman to family, friends and friends of friends if anyone is in need of an attorney that knows the law. She is your best bet. I personally WILL NOT use any other attorney in Jacksonville. She was actually my 2nd attorney and from my first meeting with her I felt comfortable handing this very personal and difficult part of my life to her more than capable hands.

Very happy with my choice and the results

I hired Ms. Norman to represent me in a complex separation and custody battle. She showed tenacity and a strong understanding of the law in helping me reach a settlement at mediation. Ms. Norman answered my questions promptly and seemed very well respected in the court. I would refer my closest f...riends.

Strong Representation

Wendy Norman has been my attorney since October, 2012. I retained her services for my impending divorce. My case was lengthy and complicated. Wendy was very knowledgeable about the law. She kept me well informed throughout every process. After mediation, there were hearings, depositions and tria...l. Wendy made me feel comfortable throughout each stage of the process. When I needed to contact Wendy, she was timely in responding. Every email was answered and phone calls were returned. Wendy provided strong legal representation. She was a pleasure to work with and I had a favorable outcome.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I was opposing counsel against Wendy Norman on a recent case. Even so, I am a big fan of Wendy Norman and her work. In the more than 13 years I've been practicing law, I've rarely found the combination of ethics, intelligence, and dedication that Wendy brings to her cases. She has a fantastic sense of practical solutions and strives to achieve a fair result for her clients even if it means an early settlement that will end up in lower attorneys' fees for herself. Yet she still has the wherewithal to fight through trial if it's the right option for her client. I'd recommend her to a family member or friend without hesitation. For ethics, practicality, or effectiveness, there are few family law attorneys in Jacksonville better than Wendy."
