Nors was great! He told me all of my options beforehand so I knew what to expect. When I had a seizure he went over the options again because it changed things. He came up with a plan and things went like he said they would. I recommend his services highly. Jaime

Nors did an outstanding job on by behalf. I would recommend him to anyone.

the case was delay by the DA office a lot of times, it took around 15-18 month before we head to the jury trail. nors was helping me to fight the case, working hard on finding the witness where in the police reports which took a long time from the DA to us. i was worry at the start because it is the first time, but nors told me it will be alright. and turn out to be alrite. we finally set a jury trail day after a long wait and in the trail Nors perform incredibly, with all the evident he gathers we win the case with ease. this is the best attorney you can get , he is smart, knowledge, hard working, and just simply great. i m especially thanksful that he help me fight this case and keep me in faith that i will win. with all his hardwork, we finally win the case. he is great and the best PS: i sure do hope that there is a video for the jury trail, so i can show everyone who read this reveiw of how great Nors did.

To say that DUI's are stressful is an understatement: this was my first time in trouble with the law, and I was at a loss about what to do. Of course, when I started looking for a lawyer, I saw that Nors had so many positive reviews compared to other lawyers', that at one point, I was paranoid that his reviews might be doctored! I'm happy to say that my experience with Nors was exactly on point with many of the other reviewers': perfect for the situation at hand. He took his time to explain the pros and cons of each decision to someone who kept badgering him with questions, and he was non-judgmental, reassuring, and basically an all-around trustworthy and hardworking lawyer you'd want on your side. Like some of Nors' other clients, I have been driving for nearly a decade and never even had a speeding ticket, so when I called him for a consultation, I was an emotional wreck. Of the six lawyers with whom I consulted, Nors impressed me the most with his humor, demeanor, determined attitude, and specific knowledge. He guided me through the entire process with compassion and never pressured or rushed me into making a decision. While there were times when Nors or his assistant Liz took a bit longer to respond to my incessant questions, I still felt comfortable knowing that my lawyer was capable and was doing his best for all of his clients. With the number of cases he's seen, he knows all the tactics and his experience shows. Honestly, Nors is an awesome defense lawyer. He sends in paperwork and directions (where to go to court, what to do about paperwork, what files or information would be helpful, etc.) promptly, always went the extra mile (ex. my schedule was extremely hectic, but he still managed to fit me in after hours for the initial phone consultation, while he was walking his dog!), and is super friendly and affable. He is knowledgeable both about the law and perceptive about the "people factor" of court. Overall, my case outcome was definitely better than I had expected, and I owe it to Nors that I was able to quickly move on from this difficult time. I am thankful that I chose Nors and hope he knows he made a huge difference in the direction my life was going!

Nors definitely provided a sigh of relief. From the moment we gave him my DUI case, I was able to let go of the constant stress that was impacting my day to day life, and focus on the present and future. Nors was able to get all my DUI charges dismissed resulting in a greatly reduced sentence. Nors was able to enter a plea of no contest to a reduced charge of wreckless driving involving alcohol, "wet and reckless". I was placed to 3 years of INFORMAL probation, three months of DUI school and $1,073 fine, which is an immense difference in the sentencing I was facing with a DUI charge. He even kept my license from becoming suspended. I received this charge while on vacation, and would not have been able to handle the case without Nors. I am happy I found him. My probationary period is now ending and I intend to hire Nors again to process my expungement. He and his staff are a pleasure to work with and it is my pleasure to do business with them again.

Nors is 100% the best DUI attorney I've had the experience working with. I received my first DUI in San Jose about 7 years ago. I was trying to flag down a cab and instead I ended up flagging down a cop instead. Rather than put me in a cab the arrested me for drunk in public. Then I was released, given the keys to my car and told to 'go home'. I tried to do exactly that and was immediately pulled over for a DUI..!!! In all honesty, my "First DUI" should have NEVER been a DUI - drunk in public "requires" the police to hold you 'until you are no longer a harm to yourself or others' - that's the law. They broke the law and told me to go home and gave me essentially a weapon. I thought I was only hungover, I could not fathom they would let me drive home drunk. I went through about $10,000 - $15,000 and 3 THREE law firms. All saying the same thing 'they can't do that, we'll get you off' They all (except the last, which chickened out at the court house and scared me into taking a plea of a wet reckless) quit returning my phone calls once they had my money. Alas, I recently had a bad experience where I had too much to drink and since the law was changed it was a SECOND offense (law was changed to 10 years in 2007). Well suffice to say I got really lucky and Nors was one of the first DUI attorneys here in SF I spoke to for this now '2nd offense DUI'. I evaluated several law firms after my utterly horrible past experiences with DUI attorneys. Ultimately I went with my 'gut' and hired Nors vs. a more expensive attorney (his prices are very reasonable). Nors was extremely professional, he calmed my nerves, he 'took the monkey off my back' (to borrow his words) so I could return to focusing on my life. Long story short, Nors "always" returned my phone calls. We met in person and went over all the details of my case, he informed me of all the ins and outs with regard to the specifics of my case and he made me aware that there was a serious issue regarding my arrest. I gave my approval for him to file a motion to suppress (which has about a less than 1% chance of success). Well I'm almost in disbelief as I type this because while the DMV ruling still stands my court case was DISMISSED! You can't put a price on that. I *never* intend to drink and drive again. Ever. However, not having to deal with Jail, Probation, and another "criminal mark" on my record is priceless. If you are in need of a DUI attorney in the bay area Nors is by far the best one out there in my experience and opinion. Thank you SO MUCH Nors! You're work is superb and your professionalism is unparalleled!

When I first hired my attorney for my DUI case, I knew nothing about Nors. I was told by some friends to be represented by Robert Tayac, because he was the best. Throughout most of my case, I only dealt with Nors. I never even met Robert until my actual hearing date, when my sentence was going to be determined. Even though my blood alcohol level was barely over the legal limit, I still had the potential to be served with a DUI. When Mr. Tayac came out of the courtroom, he said I was to be charged with a DUI. This would also mean that I would lose my driver's license for 6 months. In a panic, I called Nors, who was on his way from another case. Nors assured me, "don't panic, I'm on my way". When Nors arrived to the courtroom, he then said that although he didn't know if it would work, he would try going back into the courtroom to ask for an extension and another hearing date. Mr. Tayac never even offered me that option. Well, as it turned out, Nors DID get the extension for me, and when we went back to court a month later, he got my charges reduced to a wet and reckless, which means I would not have a DUI charge on my record. In addition, Nors also fought for me at the DMV, and I never had my driver's license suspended, not even for one day. I can't begin to describe my gratitude to Nors, and the work and effort he put into my case. Nothing like this will ever happen to me again, but I would trust Nors Davidson 100% if I ever needed an attorney again. He is truly amazing.
