Norwood and Norwood took great care of my case. Everyone was extremely friendly. From the receptionist to the lawyers everyone treated me great and made me feel comfortable through the whole process. They are extremely knowledgeable and know what they are doing. Highly recommended.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"When you need an advocate on your side, Cathy is the one to get the job done. I am routinely impressed with how well her relationships with prosecutors serve the best interest of her clients. She doesn't stop until the deal is as good as it can possibly be, or the matter is tried to the end. When determination and grit is needed to defend your case, Cathy is the one to call."

Criminal defense lawyer | Oct 03

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have never met such a savvy negotiator as Cathy Norwood. If you have been charged with a crime in Northwest Arkansas, you'd be well-advised to call Norwood & Norwood. These folks are sharks. They aggressively fight for their clients rights. When most people think of the firm, they may think of Doug Norwood. What they don't realize is that Cathy Norwood is the firm's secret weapon. And to a client charged with a serious crime, she is their new best friend."

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.
