Milestones & recognition

  • In February 2026, Crown prosecutors withdrew aggravated assault and assault with a weapon charges against a Lindsay client Norton represented, stemming from a confrontation with an intruder inside the client's apartment. The case drew coverage from national outlets including the Canadian Press and Canadian Security Magazine, and Norton said in a statement that the incident had been a traumatic ordeal that the charges compounded.
