    My legal battle was very complex. Following representation of three separate lawyers who were unable to assist, I sought legal Counsel from Bridget Norton. She is honest, direct, no nonsense, brilliant & a SHARK. Highly recommended - especially if the odds are not in your favor.

    Bridget took over my divorce after my first attorney had to step down due to illness. What an blessing! Bridget availed herself to answer my calls, communicated to me the things I needed to know, and made me feel as if I were her most important client. Bridget’s understanding of the divorce process, from legal knowledge to emotional support, makes her an outstanding attorney and one I can highly recommend.
