With compassion and knowledge, Dallas Norton has been representing injury victims and their families in Colorado and Utah for over 25 years. His clients are provided with Dallas' personal cell phone number and clients are never passed on to a "case manager" as with many larger law firms. Our firm motto is "We work for you" which truly represents our attitude towards clients. If a client cannot reach his or her attorney there is a problem with the attorney, not the client. With their lawyer's advice, a client should be able to make an informed decision and not feel pressured by their attorney to pursue a course with which they are not comfortable - - ultimately, the client should be able to decide if they prefer to settle out of court or file a lawsuit.
