Personal injury and criminal defense cases both involve questions of evidence, sophisticated forensic techniques, and an ability to reconstruct what happened from eyewitness testimony. At the Norwood Law Office, I work closely with accident investigators, forensic experts, medical professionals, lab technicians, and others in developing and presenting personal injury and criminal defense cases.
For these reasons, it's important to remember that when facing a complex legal matter in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the lawyer you select to handle your case can be crucial. An experienced and knowledgeable attorney can effectively review your case and determine the best way in which to proceed while preserving your best interests.
Clients throughout the area trust their many legal matters to me, attorney Joseph M. Norwood. I opened the Norwood Law Office in an effort to assure the law was applied equally and fairly to people throughout Tulsa and the surrounding communities. Since I began practicing law I have worked with a cross-section of Tulsa residents including blue collar workers, business professionals, juveniles, and immigrants. My main legal practice areas include criminal defense, personal injury, insurance, civil plaintiff, and civil rights.
If you or someone you know is facing criminal charges, has been a victim of police brutality, or was injured in any way, intentionally or accidentally, please contact my office or call 918.582.6464 to schedule a free consultation.
Skilled Tulsa Criminal Defense Attorney
If you, a friend, or a member of your family has been arrested and charged with a crime it is important to hire an attorney quickly. I am available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week either at my office or on my cell phone. Once I am hired, I immediately begin helping my clients obtain bail bonds. If they cannot afford bail I can provide representation at a bail bond reduction hearing.
Having handled criminal defense cases for years, I understand the process and the potential risks to freedom and liberties faced by people as they move through the criminal justice system. From the arrest to pretrial hearing, plea negotiations, and trial, people face a criminal justice system where many people consider them guilty. Regardless of whether you are innocent, guilty, or are looking to get a case dismissed, I utilize my position as an experienced criminal defense lawyer to level the playing field. I offer my clients legal advice and representation designed to secure their future and minimize any sentence and other consequences associated with their criminal case.
If you are an immigrant or non-citizen, you should be aware that a criminal conviction can have serious effects on your immigration status. I have significant experience working with legal and illegal immigrants facing issues such as deportation, revoked visas, and denied citizenship due to criminal charges.
One of the hallmarks of my practice is respecting each client's dignity. Loss of respect and personal dignity should not be a consequence of being charged with violating an Oklahoma criminal law. Regardless of the criminal charge, I am committed to providing zealous representation and working to preserve the dignity of my clients.
In addition to providing Tulsa criminal defense representation, I also handle civil rights cases related to police misconduct and brutality.

Whether you were injured in a car accident, slip and fall accident, or as a result of a dangerous product, I will fight for the compensation you deserve.
