“I endorse this lawyer. When Mr. Norelli retired from the Orange County Public Defender’s Office, we were in need of a contract attorney. Mr. Norelli turned out to be the perfect fit for our practice at The SoCal Law Network and will likely become a member of The SoCal Law Network based on his incredible contributions. Mr. Norelli is a consummate professional and an incredibly talented attorney. Mr. Norelli is always prepared for any matter we present to him. Before any appearance he ensures that he is not only well-versed on the case history; but also the case law associated with the case. In only three short months, Mr. Norelli has obtained six, yes, six dismissals and four substantial reductions in charges on some of our most serious criminal matters. Mr. Norelli is not only an asset to us; but to his own clients as well. Mr. Norelli is a true lawyer: always prepared and always ready to do battle on behalf of clients.”
