Don't waste your time

I hired Marcus in 2003 to represent me the lawyer have me shock probation. Marcus failed to do the paperwork on time as well as show up for court 1/5/2004 when my shock probation time was up. Because the time limited ran out I was not eligible for shock probation and had to finish my prison sentence....

Thank You My Charges Were Dismissed

I was arrested for tampering with a government document and I hired Mr. Norman to represent me in the case. He did exactly what he told me what he would do in this case and the charges were dismissed. He is very knowledgeable and I would recommend him to my friends and family.

Very Good Attorney

I hired Mr. Norman to represent my son in a case in which he was accused of theft. Mr Norman was very helpful to me and my family and we were very satisfied with the outcome we received in this case. He was very professional and kept us informed throughout the entire process. I am very satisfied with... his representation.

Disappointed

I am very disappointed in this lawyer, I hired him for a case and he let me down. For about 3 months i had know contact with him because he gave me false numbers to be contacted. I finally had to contact the state bar in order for him to respond. But what upset me was how as My DEfENSE attorney in hi...s response to the bar he is defending the prosecution side instead of defending his client. No matter how he feels personally I hired him to DEFEND ME and that not happening. I am going to say this do a thourough research on the attorney you hire to defend your case, because even though they take your money they might be working for the other side IJS. If you have a case in Collin County please rersearch your attorneys especially the ones who are promised other cases outside of yours.

Replied last June 13, 2013

Whoever wrote this comment, is unable to articulate any facts about their case, because they are refusing to take any responsibility for their actions. Also, the attorney does not control the facts and can only influence the outcome if the client is cooperative; obviously they had other things going on and the evidence possessed by the state was overwhelming against them. Many times complainers like this expect the lawyer to work a miracle when their is a mountain of evidence against them.

MARCUS NORMAN GOOD ATTORNEY IN DALLAS

I hired Mr. Norman to represent me in a complex legal matter. He took the time to explain all of my legal options and I was very satisfied with the outcome of the case. I recommended him to some friends and they could not thank me enough. I would certainly recommend this guy if you want a good lawyer....
