Posted by Lauren M. | January 23, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Hard-working, knowledgeable and honest

Being a parent herself, Wendy has been very empathetic, understanding, and vigilant in my custody case. She knows the details backward and forward and often comes to me with the same thought or idea I intended to present to her. She is extremely well-versed in family law and has been nothing but over...ly prepared each and every time we have gone in front of the judge. Wendy is an honest, hard-working, respectable, and down-to-earth attorney who I would absolutely recommend to anyone going through a divorce. In regards to the comment below, I am concerned that someone would fraudulently use my name to make false statements about Ms. Norman and myself.

Great Lawyer!

I first hired Wendy to help me in my divorce. It was a tough one and she was great. I had problems with my ex after the divorce and had to go back to court. I called Wendy right away. Just like the first time around, she listened to me, talked to me and I got another great outcome. If my ex give...s me trouble again, I will call Wendy. Can't get any better than the best!

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.

LITTLE EXPERIENCE MEANS LONG DELAY MEANS LOT OF MONEY

Wendy Norman has been my attorney for 2 years before she decided to withdraw a couple of days before my hearing. I believe that after 2 years of tremendous fees paid to her, she just decided that she will not be able to handle the case. So she withdrew. During those 2 years I have trust her, her fees... piled up when my case was a simple one. As soon as she withdrew, I had to take another lawyer who handled the case in less than 3 months. Wendy Norman has a great experience to look like professional : she will carefully prepare her red, green and black pens next to her notebook but unfortunatly, those pre-schoolers skills are far away from solving a case. She is not appreciated by 2 of the judges here in Duval county and her peers sees her as a un-experienced attorney. So watch carefully who will be the judge for your case. I have always paid her on a timely manner for no results. Her enormous fees just do not match her little experience. Just run away from this attorney because the only thing she will do is to take your money.

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."
