Norma's primary office is at 580 Booth St., 14th Fl., Ottawa, ON. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

Working with a new energy attorney should feel structured. Here's how the first two conversations with Norma usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Norma discusses fees during intake so the arrangement fits the matter. Contingency, hourly, and flat-fee options are all common in energy practice — ask which fits.

• How much does it cost to hire Norma for a energy case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Norma walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Norma offer a free consultation?

  Norma charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Norma's office. Some energy attorneys offer free consults — check Norma's current terms during booking.

• How long do energy cases in this state typically take?

  Simple energy matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Norma gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Norma take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Norma evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Norma's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Norma?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Norma will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Norma accepting new energy clients right now?

  Norma's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
