I can’t stress how much help you were to me and I really appreciate you and your team’s help. You were always on top of things and I always felt being looked after.\u00a0Thanks to you, my drinking and driving charge was dropped. My birthday is tomorrow and you surely made it a remarkable one.\u00a0\u2014\u00a0S.L.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n Norm, thank you so much for all the help that you gave me on my case. This was my first serious charge, and I had no idea what was going to happen. You took the time to explain the system to me and get me a great result. I was charged with armed robbery and was facing some serious jail time and you got me on a work release program. I am very thankful for all the help you have given me. I felt like I was talking to a friend who really cared. Just recently I was charged with breaking my curfew and you had the charges dropped!! I would recommend Norm Stanford to anyone who needs a great criminal lawyer! * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/span><\/p>\n When I first spoke to Norm I felt comfortable and trusted his knowledge about my case. He was very honest and open and I felt he truly cared. Norm called me to inform me about every important detail about my case and he went the extra mile to fight for me. I am very happy with the results and will recommend him to any of my friends and family should they get into trouble. It is difficult to find someone who is so understanding about people\u2019s problems and I am glad I chose Norm to help me fix mine and give me a second chance for my future. <\/span>\u2014\u00a0S.R.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n I would really like to thank you for helping me through this stressful time. When I came to you for your assistance, I was charged with a drinking and driving offence and facing the prospect of losing my license. This would have been detrimental for me as I need my license in order to run my business. I found that your service was professional and you were extremely patient while explaining the process. After my case was taken care of, I was able to maintain my driver\u2019s license without any disturbance to my responsibilities. Thank you Norm for helping me during this time and I really do appreciate how it was handled. \u2014 S.T. <\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n Norm, I just can’t thank you enough for all your hard work and due diligence you put into my case– I was possibly facing jail time for a driving related offence. \u00a0I was very stressed out, unable to focus on school, finding a job, or just living life because it felt like I had this huge weight on my back and mind. \u00a0But thanks to your skills and knowledge of the law, the charges were dropped and I have my peace of mind back. \u00a0I won’t get into this kind of issue again, but everytime somebody I know asks for legal advice, I make sure to give them your number because of the great results I had with my case. \u00a0Good luck and all the best. \u2014 N.M.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n I approached Norm with my situation after I had been charged, for the first time in my life, with Assault with a Weapon – which understandably, is a very serious offence. \u00a0I acted out of self defence after being attacked and my attacker suffered severe injuries which lead to my unfortunate arrest. \u00a0The first 2 lawyers I retained for this prior could not help me resolve it better than a fine with short term jail time or simply probation– either which came with a hefty criminal record attached, which I was trying to avoid since I hadn’t been arrested or charged ever before. \u00a0The Crown didn’t want to accept any type of plea or discharge so ultimately my only choice was to go to trial. \u00a0After the nightmare I had with my first two lawyers, I found Norm extremely professional and understanding. \u00a0He took my case seriously and worked closely with me to achieve MY desired results. He listened to what I wanted, and respected my decisions throughout the entire ordeal. He was very meticulous with details surrounding the night of the arrest and made his own thorough investigation with his questions before, and during my trial.<\/p>\n I was very comfortable and confident with what he had prepared and how he executed our defence the day of, knowing that he went over and above his necessary responsibilities, which lead to the Crown Attorney’s recommendation to the Judge for my absolute acquittal (not guilty<\/span>). \u00a0The Judge concurred with the Crown and all charges were dropped and my record continues to be clean. \u2014 D.T.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n Norm Stanford was very helpful and professionally took care of my problem. \u00a0I would recommend his services to anyone and would gladly use them again myself. \u00a0His advice and knowledge resolved my problem to my complete satisfaction. \u2014 B.P.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n I would like to thank Norm for having my charges withdrawn for extortion.\u00a0 If it wasn’t for him I would be stuck with a criminal record and would have had a hard time finding a job, considering most jobs do criminal history checks. \u00a0While I was in the cell, the police officer placed a phone call to Norm.\u00a0 He was in their lawyers contact book and luckily my phone call was answered at 2.a.m. \u00a0I was given great advice from him. \u00a0We later met and discussed my situation and he completely understood everything.\u00a0 Being charged with extortion was an experience I will never forget but most of all I will NEVER forget the phone call I received from him the day my charge was withdrawn: \u201cThis is Norm calling, may I please speak with Mark\u201d \u201cThis is Mark, Hi Norm, how are you?\u201d \u201cIM GOOD………… AND SO ARE YOU\u201d. \u00a0Since that day I felt like a jackpot winner.\u00a0 Norm will always be in my cell phone contact list in case anything happens in the future with me, friends or family. \u2014 M.P.<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n Thank you so much for today!!\u00a0 A. has been in constant contact with me all day updating me step by step!\u00a0 I got the news that the bail hearing was successful, thank goodness and only just under the wire!! \u2014 T.M<\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n I have been charged with criminal Impaired Driving and Over 80. \u00a0Things were not looking good for me. \u00a0After contacting many, I mean many lawyers, I met Norm Stanford. I felt comfortable and he was the most reasonable and accomodating lawyer. \u00a0He worked in every angle and every option for me. \u00a0I was very happy with the result. \u00a0For me to get a non-criminal Highway Traffic Act result was a miracle. \u00a0I would refer Mr. Stanford to anyone who needed a good, honest and caring lawyer. Thank you very much Mr. Stanford. \u2014 C.L. <\/em><\/p>\n * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 * \u00a0 *<\/p>\n I would like to thank Mr. Stanford for representing me in the court of law. \u00a0Regardless of language barriers I was able to communicate with him and build a strong trusting, professional relationship. \u00a0He showed a lot of interest in my case and his services were very professional. \u00a0He had an ability to accurately gather and present the facts of my case and choose the proper line of defense. \u00a0He also showed a lot of understanding towards my difficult financial situation and made very reasonable payment arrangements. \u00a0I would strongly recommend his services to everyone. \u2014 R.J<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I can’t stress how much help you were to me and I really appreciate you and your team’s help.
