Ms. Johnson-Norris is the absolute definition of an attorney. She not only helped me with my petty theft case, but she also gave me peace of mind during these difficult times. The reason I would recommend Ms. Johnson-Norris is much more than just ‘she gets the job done.’ Rather, she works for you and gets results by taking the burden off you! I want to thank her for her time and encourage anyone who needs help to look to her for answers.
I would highly recommend Ms. Johnson-Norris. She and her staff were knowledgeable, very personable, and sensitive to my personal situation. They kept me informed at every turn and were easily contacted whenever I had a question or concern. Additionally, Ms. Johnson-Norris successfully attained what I felt was a favorable outcome. She provided me with approachability and results, enabling me to move on and put the past behind me. Thank you, Ms. Johnson-Norris for everything, especially a huge sigh of relief!
I hired Lauren Johnson-Norris when social services showed up at my door asking questions after my husband and I got into an argument. I didn’t understand why they were there and everything was so overblown. They threatened to put my kids in foster care. Ms. Johnson-Norris created a plan to keep my family together, to keep us all safe and to help us get out of the system quickly. She was compassionate and as smart as can be. Her fees were reasonable, I could always get her on the phone and it was such a relief to know that she was on our side. If you or your family ever run into trouble with social services, I strongly recommend calling her. I am so thankful.
Ms. Johnson-Norris represented my wife and me in a motion for relative placement of our grandchild. This was part of a nightmarish case involving the SSA, a corrupt and broken system rife with cronyism, ineptitude and conflicts of interest. Ms. Johnson-Norris was recommended to us as an expert in this area and we are so grateful to her for how she helped us. I’m experienced in dealing with attorneys in commercial and civil issues through my career, but dependency court is a bizarre world where normal rules and rights do not apply. In OC, it is a closed system filled with bias, and outsiders are at a disadvantage. Ms. Johnson-Norris is highly respected in this world and highly effective. She is always professional and an excellent communicator, never failing to return calls and emails promptly as we navigated this valley of terror. She was always prepared with thoughtful, intelligent, reasonable, and realistic counsel. She continues to guide, represent, and help us as things wrap up. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is highly credible and experienced in this area of law, and there are not many who are. We are so glad she represented us. Her guidance and insight were invaluable to our family, and her teaming with the other counsel for our family was highly effective.
Lauren Johnson-Norris is extremely knowledgeable in family court. She communicates with you as a client and is realistic in your options and outcomes. She helped us get our kids returned to us and sort through the maze of dependency court and social services.
