"I endorse Norton Tooby's work with enthusiasm and warm regard. He is an expert on the interface between criminal and immigration law and he is the lawyer I call when I have a problem in this area. I learned about Norton years ago through his books. Over the years, I have come to know his work intimately by his kind referral of clients who needed to address their legal problems in Maryland in order to bring their immigration issues to a successful conclusion. He is a consummate advocate who has a deep compassion for the people he represents. Listening to Norton analyze a criminal immigration factual situation has given me insights that it would have taken years for me to learn if I had simply taken CLE courses and read books. He is among the most generous of scholars, a guide through the dense woods of criminal immigration law, and working with him has made me a better lawyer."

"I believe Norton Tooby is #1 in the country for designing and implementing post-conviction relief strategies to prevent deportation. Were a loved one to face possible removal due to a crime, Norton is certainly the lawyer I would turn to. In addition to full-scale relief, I ask him regularly to evaluate the immigration consequences of criminal convictions, as he is often able to find solutions where other lawyers have seen no hope. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of his field and tremendous integrity."
