Mr. Norton pulled off a miracle for me and saved me from a long prison sentence. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer to defend them in the federal legal system. I couldn’t have asked for more from Mr. Norton. He is a true professional and will treat you with the utmost respect and will not mislead you. I would like to thank Mr. Norton for giving me my freedom back.

LaHood Norton helped me beyond my expectation and was able to not just provide me with vital information but actually use every bit of their power to fight for me. I’m forever thankful for the LaHood Norton Staff in fully taking care of me with such professional and GENUINE care. Jason, of course I would like to thank for being there every step of the way. I couldn’t ask for a better team.

When I started with this office, my standards and expectations were high, and circumstances were serious. I had interviewed at least 10 local prominent criminal defense law firms, and ultimately selected two different attorneys at different times throughout my case with “decades of criminal defense experience and knowledge” only to end up in contact with this truly professional office, more specifically Jay Norton, who has proven to possess the experience and knowledge he claims. Credentials and advertising are one thing, but true experience, statistics, and performance are another. This is a rare firm in that it has assembled and formed a powerful and diligent team of the best experts who work with you one-on-one throughout your case and the entire process from beginning to end. What’s amazing about Jay is he listened, was receptive, and made me a part of the team in my own defense, while making my needs and best interests the number one priority. The entire process was handled with the same professional attention to detail as the very first consultation. The firm and Jay are both highly regarded as being the best throughout the state and beyond, and it’s no wonder why. If I could leave an analogy for folks to consider. Imagine your case and circumstances as a terminal illness diagnosis for you or a loved one, and the type of Doctors or medical professionals you would want and need to assist with that treatment. Ultimately you want and need the best Doctor(s) to increase the chances of survival and best possible outcome for that illness. This is that firm of “Doctors” and Jay is the real deal. Your best chance of survival while facing criminal allegations is contained within the minds and experience of this office. I can’t express enough gratitude or satisfaction to the LaHood Norton Law Group most importantly Jay Norton, for the services I’ve personally and directly received while being professionally represented by the best law firm possible. Biggest thanks to Jay Norton and the entire LaHood Norton Law Group!

DA final offer was 30years or LIFE sentence if I took it to trial. My attorney said I should take it I was 99% going to be convicted. I went to Lahood-Norton and they went to work. Against a stacked deck they had no fear. Prosecution not willing to budge in any way. Little did they know they were about to witness the amount of brain power of top teir defense trial lawyers. Lahood-Norton team was able to crush their case against me. I did not get the LIFE sentence they promised I was getting. Instead my case got dismissed. I'm forever in debt to Lahood- Norton. They saved my life. God bless each and every one of them.

I just hired Lahood Norton after working with court appointed attorneys on allegations against me that I’ve faced for the first time. Already it’s been a world of difference- being treated with respect, understanding, and dignity. The communication thus far has blown me away. On a case that has stood open for months Mr. Goss was able to get a dismissal upon his first review of The situation, one he was wholly unfamiliar with. This goes to show his outstanding ability to see the flaws in a case, zealous advocacy for clients, and his deep understanding of the law. I am just beyond impressed. The firm’s investigator has shown the same professional courtesy, kindness, and understanding and I feel relieved knowing there is such a strong team, finally, advocating for me. While my work with them is not yet through, I have a sense of peace I have not felt in months, assistants and paralegals that seem incredibly on top of things whom communicate thoroughly and respectfully, almost as though they appreciate being able to help me. When you find yourself facing life altering, scary allegations- that’s how those you choose to ask for help should make you feel- Like you matter, and have a strong team behind you for that very reason. So glad when I needed help I asked Lahood Norton.

Last year, my daughter found herself in a scary situation that I’m sure many young people find themselves in without support, help, or guidance. It was a situation that could’ve ruined her life. Thankfully, the team at LaHood Norton Law Group looked at the details of her case and determined that they could help this not be the case and they came through in a big way. The case was tried and the outcome was NOT GUILTY for my daughter. As attorneys, they are the absolute best. As people, they’re truly a team a mother can completely trust. Nico consulted with us at various times before the trial, always focused on us each time and thorough with everything he needed to provide so that we could make a sound decision on how to proceed at each step of this process - one which was long and grueling. We truly could never have done this without him. Throughout the trial, Gary’s entire focus was on my daughter and he was on point every second! He truly had my daughter’s back. Jason constantly kept me informed about what was happening. As a mom sitting in a courtroom while her daughter is on trial - I cannot express how that feels and how much gratitude I have that these attorneys cared so much about me. And to see Jasmin throughout the trial - always seated next to my daughter and talking to her throughout - she came across as a big sister or a good friend. This mom is forever grateful to you Nico, Gary, Jason and Jasmin. God bless you all. THANK YOU! If your son or daughter find themselves in a situation that is intimidating, scary and could potentially ruin their life, please DO NOT HESITATE to call LaHood Norton Law Group.

My case getting dismissed thanks to the amazing work of my attorneys from LaHood Norton Law Group is something I will forever be grateful for. From day one I knew my attorney Gary Hillier was looking out for my best interests and sincerely cared about me and my situation. If you or a loved one ever needs legal assistance, I strongly recommend you contact LaHood Norton. I know without a doubt that without them, my situation would’ve turned out much differently. Thank you LaHood Norton and a special thank you to Gary for having my back.
Bela Ramirez
I want to first thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ whom I entrusted throughout my trials and tribulations. It is by His grace that I've made it this far. Secondly, my sincere gratitude for everyone at Lahood & Norton for their tact and professionalism throughout my trial, before, during and after. Not once did I feel that my case mattered any less than their other cases. Their constant attention to detail and heartfelt advise was greatly appreciated and well received. Special thanks to Mr. Norton, Mr. Goss, Jasmin, Michelle and the rest of the crew for believing in me. I can't thank you enough for giving me back a little bit of what I've lost during my trying times. God bless!!

Alfredo Morales
I have entrusted my son's legal matters with Lahood Norton Law Firm and so far they have been great and continue to do so. They always take calls, answer any questions or concerns we may have. Mr. LaHood personally sat with us, explained possible outcomes. We did not leave office feeling less anxious. Would totally recommend this law firm.
Linda Rodriguez
LaHood Norton Law Group is top notch. The office staff was prompt and courteous. The attorney that represented me, was honesty and forthcoming. I am extremely happy with the services he provided and the outcome of my case. Thank you!
Joshua Ramon
Thank you Lahood Norton Law Group for your impeccable team!
In my experience over a few years with you all, from the front office to the back, I have been welcomed like family, treated with respect, and told the truth of the possible outcomes of my case. Both positive and negative. I was lucky enough to meet and listen to perspectives of multiple people there.
That being said, Gary Hillier is a magician with his words and tactics. It was truly as if I were watching and listening to art being revealed while he was defending my rights!
In my case, I truly hope no one has to go through the same ordeal, but they should know that the team at Lahood Norton will always have your best interest in mind.

Nico LaHood and his staff have been exceptionally helpful and very informative regarding my son’s case.Specifically, Kendra. His paralegal makes herself available to him for all his needs and questions. We are very satisfied and recommend this law firm to anybody with legal needs. Thank you team!
Michelle Garza
Without a doubt the best law firm around! All the attorneys are great and friendly and the paralegals always answer or return phone calls quickly. This group of well established attorneys helped me get a good deal and on a timely basis as well as helped me with pricing to ensure we could work together and they could help me out as best possible!
Justin Gutierrez
Jay Norton and Nico LaHood are both amazing attorneys. They are extremely knowledgeable and caring on top of being very professional. Their staff is also very professional and extremely helpful as well as hospitable. If you are looking for lawyers that care and are gonna do everything to see your case through with the best possible outcome then I couldn’t recommend a better team! Thank you again for all the hard work and hours spent on my case.
Damian Collins
I cannot recommend this office enough! They worked on my husbands case diligently, even when I needed to communicate with them, they were kind and compassionate. They gave us the best result in the end, and we could not have picked BETTER lawyers. LaHood-Norton cares about making a difference in this community! If you need a defense attorney, this is the place to go. Jay was a great attorney, but this whole firm cares about what they’re doing!
Abby Collins
They were amazing and did a fantastic job or representing me! I always felt well represented and advised of my offers. Very well educated attorneys. USE THEM!!!!!!!
Stevon Skipper
Nico and his team are the best attorneys you can have on your side, you don’t have to look for them. They are always communicating with you. If they, for some reason are closed, they let you know a day before. They work fast on helping you, getting things done, for an example I got a DWI and they got my class A CDL back in just a few weeks. And not getting suspended. I highly recommend hiring them.
Joe Luna
This is the first law firm where I was treated like family . The staff and lawyers were very friendly and responded quickly with all my questions and concerns. Never had to miss a day of work and that’s a plus . If you’re looking for the best representation this is the place they have the experience that it takes to fight for your rights. I highly recommend this law firm call the you won’t regret it.

I have entrusted my legal matters with Lahood Norton Law Firm and so far they have been great and continue to do so.
Kira Bunch
I am so overjoyed and thankful for LaHood Norton Law Group. Specifically Jason Goss. From the moment Mr. LaHood invited me into his office and reassured me they would fight for my son, to soon after meeting Patrick, who spoke to me via his cell more times than I can remember, to working with the office staff, to Jason Goss taking the reigns and meeting with my son, it was evident we were going to be taken care of. Mr. Goss was there for my son like not many men before him have ever been, and our lives are forever changed and we are forever grateful.
Cynthia Caruso
LIFE SAVER! I was presented with a situation that would have ruined my life. After dozens of calls to other law firms, I entrusted Nico and his team to help me clear my name. They did it with one phone call! This firm obviously knows what they are doing so the price for their service was more than fair. I cannot thank Nico and his team enough for having my back.
Trey Ibarra
Definitely best law firm in town!!! Had all my cases dismissed. Jay Norton and all lawyers affiliated with lahood Norton did an exceptional job when other law firms did not take me seriously. If you need a criminal lawyer. Lahood Norton Definitely has your back. Don't let a criminal case affect you for the rest of your life! These guys are the real deal!!!
Chris Gallardo
The Lahood Norton law firm. HMMM,How to put into words the best way to describe their services?
The first thing I would like to say is God Bless This group of lawyers,paralegals, and office personnel. Not only do they show kindness, professionalism, curteousness,but their concern for their clients is unmatched. When I hired this firm to represent me in a matter that could have had me in prison for up to life, I was truly afraid. With a very late notice and barely over a month before trial,they took my case and did in a week what my court appointed lawyer couldn't do in over 4 years.Not only did they take the case,they did something that was unbelievably miraculous.They didn't tell me to take a plea agreement like my court appointed lawyer kept telling me to do,but instead assured me that my case was worth fighting.And although they couldn't guarantee what the would be the final results would be,they did assure me that they were ready to fight!
Not only did they get my case completely DISMISSED, but made sure that nothing could be changed on that decision by the courts.
They definitely are not the least expensive lawyers, but I can guarantee that you will have the BEST representation that money can get you.
So if you are EVER in need of faithful men of God and who treat you like you are family, then don't look any farther than this lawfirm.
What is the value of your freedom?
I thank God for steering me in the direction of this lawfirm, thanks so much,Nico Lahood,Jason Goss,Michelle, Brandy,and all of those who were there for me,God bless you all....
Greg P.

Saenz Stefanie
This firm is amazing, was quick to work with me on my case and reliable with getting in contact with. Their work really helped me turn my life around and saw their work as a blessing to my life
Joshua Coronado
My attorney, Justin Fowlks, has gone above and beyond to advocate for my rights. He has helped represent me legally in a very professional and caring manner. I would highly recommend Justin Fowlks to represent you and help navigate legal troubles.
Ricardo Lazalde
WOW!!! I’m still in disbelief. I was facing 25 to life on my charge had been 2 times prior to prison. Jason Goss somehow negotiated a 10 silent with the DA prosecutor. Meaning that the state recommends 10 years while they stay silent during cross examination. I also know the judge because he had sentenced me over 11 years ago and still remembered me. I thought for sure I was facing an 8-10 year sentence. Nico LaHood closed out my case plea with the judge very eloquently and professional and to all our surprise the Judge handed me a 3 year sentence!!! I know time is time, but in this case it is unheard of for anyone to receive a gift of 3 years. I will be out within a year and still be able to pick up where I left off with my family and business. God is good!!! If you are ever in a tough jam with the law I highly suggest LaHood & Norton defense team! It may cost a pretty penny, so does your freedom.

I had a phone consultation with Mr. Norton regarding a couple of criminal cases and he was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful with what I should do to help myself.
Kara Kirsch
Don't look any further and I will summarize why. The wheels of justice turn slowly and many times unfairly. The bottom line is you cannot trust your life or the life of your children to just anyone. Jason Goss was the difference in my son's life and his actions will be felt from this day forward. He not only represented my son with expertise and knowledge, he worked hard with a very non-negotiable county to reach the best outcome. My son felt heard by Jason, respected despite his charge, and he was able to text Jason whenever he needed with fast and accurate responses. The case was extremely complex and involved two counties, but because of Jason's diligence and attention, my son will be able to fulfill his requirements to the state and live to begin again. If you want to ensure that your children can survive their mistakes, you don't need to look any further than LaHood Norton and Jason Goss. You need to view their services as an investment in your family's future. Money comes and goes, but a ruling is final. Our gratitude for his work cannot be measured. Thank you Jason!

They treated me like family and always heard me out. There is no amount of words that can say how grateful and overly satisfied I am with all their hard work they did for my family. I would hire them anytime and they are highly recommended by my family and I. He worked on a big case of mine and it brought closure to my family we waited 38 years for this. For this law firm I am forever grateful. God bless you all.
Rosemary Cantu
