    Norman Thomas brings nearly 40 years of experience to his practice as a Virginia appellate lawyer.

    Dedicated to achieving beneficial client outcomes through a passionate attitude and craftsmanlike approach to the practice of appellate law.

    "My appeal seemed personal to you as you were working during surgery, nights, weekends and even while traveling to your child’s graduation...[Y]ou never told me what I wanted to hear unless it was factual.  I remember asking you what our odds of winning were before any retainer was collected, and you said: "[T]his is going to be a very tough case.  The opposing defense is a very worthy adversary and it will be quite a challenge…If given the opportunity, I will leave no stone unturned and I will give it everything I’ve got to fight this battle.”   Your professional performance speaks for itself.  The decision. . . overturning the original decision, I believe, is a landmark."
