There is a very simple reason why Cathleen has such high review scores on AVVO; she is a talented and outstanding attorney who works for her clients as if they were her personal friend or family member. In other words, you get the sense that she truly cares about her clients and she does. I had the very fortune experience of coming across her profile during my search for new representation after a serious child custody crisis. After my first meeting with her I was confident I had found the right person. Her knowledge, professionalism, honesty and genuine demeanor shined throughout the entire process. She skillfully brought calm to a very emotional and chaotic situation. Cathleen and her remarkable team (Albertine and company) worked steadfastly for me. I honestly cannot express enough thanks, gratitude or appreciation for all their hard work and support in what they helped accomplish for me and my daughter.

Cathleen helped me win and we didn't just win...we won big. As a single a Father, my custody case was everything to me. Believe me when I say that Cathleen Norton is a cut above the competition in every way. Smart and strategic. Passionate and caring. Cathleen is the kind of lawyer that truly commits to excellence in her field and that is why she blows away the competition! There is no doubt in my mind that the other side wishes they could have hired Cathleen instead. There are only five stars but I wish I could give ten stars because that is what Cathleen and her law firm deserve. I am forever grateful that I stumbled upon Avvo in my search to find the best lawyer to represent my case. I strongly suggest you read through Cathleen's client reviews as I did. The proof is in the pudding. You simply won't find another Lawyer with as many satisfied and thankful clients as Cathleen Norton. Before I found Ms. Norton, I had initial consultations with five other Family Lawyers in my search to find the best representation. I had spoke with many others Lawyers by phone. No one wants to go to court but when it comes to your family, future and success in life –– you can't make these decisions lightly. Going into a legal battle with the best representation possible (or lack thereof) will make or break your case. Deciding to hire Cathleen was the best decision I made and in the future I wouldn't want to work with anyone else. I would absolutely recommend her to my closest family and friends. In times past, I've worked with lawyers who would meticulously charge me for every single thing they could. With Cathleen and her team there was always a sense of understanding and compassion in regards to everything. I must say that they were generous and careful with both the retainer and the fees I was being charged. I know for a fact in many instances they saved me money. My court case was complex and had many layers to it. Over the course of almost a year we were put to the test in the court room. There were many ups and downs. Cathleen and her law firm were always there for me –– keeping me updated and educated on every twist and turn. Heidi, Aine and Albertine are a fantastic team and I enjoyed the process of working with all of them. In the end, not only did Cathleen exceed all expectations as a lawyer, I felt she truly cared for the outcome of my case in only the way a friend could. That passion for winning the case was clear in her final closing statements to the Judge and it was as persuasively delivered as any courtroom scene from a movie. When the Judge ruled in our favor I couldn't help but feel blessed and appreciative for the knowledge, dedication and preparation of Cathleen Norton and her entire team. Thank you again Cathleen, you're the best!

Ms. Norton and her staff were extremely helpful throughout my child custody dispute. They were responsive, compassionate, and understanding. I highly recommend her and her team to any family going through such a challenging time. She is assertive and empathic and her priority is the best interest of the child.

Where do I begin. My divorce/custody battle was a very long one. I was scared, nervous and extremely emotional. I really loved the fact that Cathleen is very professional and honest. She truly kept me grounded and was very real with me in regards to all issues. She addressed every single concern, understood me, empathized, and made my process all easier. I really do love her honesty in it all, I was totally myself around her, no judgement. Everyone at the office too, they are on top of things, answer quickly and overall kind. When you go into a sensitive process that can also be lengthy, having someone kind definitely helps the journey. I'm so grateful I hired Cathleen.

She is very professional. Walks in tells you how it is and if you follow her advice she will get the job done! Highly recommend her.

I am a single father with an extraordinary situation involving my six-month-old daughter and estranged spouse. Cathleen anticipated the opposing argument and gave spot on advice during the consultation on how to structure my legal position, resulting in court orders that I was more than satisfied with. 10/10 will consult & hire in the future.

Cathleen represented me in my divorce proceedings. My ex and her attorney tried to make every step difficult for me. Cathleen and her team successfully fought and negotiated a fair settlement for everyone concerned. She is a tenacious and thorough attorney who I am thankful for having as my attorney.

I hired Cathleen after interviewing a few different attorneys. After meeting her, I felt her qualifications and personality were a perfect fit for me. I hired her to assist me in filing for divorce from a difficult spouse. She handled my divorce from start to finish, preparing a judgment, an income withholding order and referring me to QDRO counsel to ensure I receive what I am entitled to. Her paralegal, Albertine was also helpful and always returned phone calls. Highly recommend Cathleen Norton's office.

I have been working with Cathleen for the past 18 months to resolve a child custody matter. Cathleen is very direct and has great communication, both with me and with opposing counsel. Cathleen delivered exactly what she said she would when we had our very first meeting. She and her team worked diligently and expeditiously while also minimizing costs by working with opposing counsel to resolve minor disagreements. Cathleen and her team were a pleasure to work with.

What did Cathleen not do for me is the question. I was in search of a lawyer as it was my first time going through a divorce with a minor child. I called many offices to set up a consultation and Cathleen’s office was one of the few that actually called me back, and I am soooo grateful that they did. Her entire office is great, very welcoming and there to help make this tough situation a little bit easier. I can honestly say Cathleen was always upfront and honest with me, taking the time to get to know me and my case. I don’t know how many times people have asked me how are things going, and one of the first things I always say is “I love my lawyer.” I never had a hard time getting in contact or getting responses from Cathleen and her office, Albertine and Heidi were great to work with as well. My case dragged on a lot longer than we expected and they always made me feel comfortable and at ease. Cathleen helped me make one of the biggest decisions regarding my case and will always be grateful for the time her and her office spent with me. If your looking for an honest, direct lawyer with your best interest at heart, you will get just that with her. She is a well known lawyer and honestly lives up to her reputation in and outside of the courtroom.
