Veteran Trial Attorney Brings Deep Transportation Defense Experience to Dinsmore

National law firm Dinsmore & Shohl LLP welcomes veteran litigator Christina “Nina” Norris to its Louisville office where she joins the Firm’s Litigation department focusing on transportation and insurance defense. With more than 30 years of experience spanning maritime law, civil rights litigation and high-stakes personal injury cases, Nina brings a proven track record of success to Dinsmore’s national platform.

“Nina’s arrival strengthens our transportation defense capabilities, and also brings a unique perspective shaped by decades of trial experience and a deep commitment to justice,” said Kenyon Meyer, managing partner of Dinsmore’s Louisville office. “We are thrilled to have her on our team.”

Nina’s current practice centers on large trucking cases, where she represents insurers and transportation companies in high-exposure matters. She is joined at Dinsmore by associate Cash Collins and paralegal Angela Marx, forming a “tight-knit team” that will continue to deliver exceptional service to clients across multiple jurisdictions. After running her own firm as a solo practitioner for more than two decades, Nina recognized she needed a firm with a roster of tenacious litigators to keep up with case work. Dinsmore’s deep bench of talented trial attorneys gives Nina the ability to better support clients, as well as an opportunity to develop her practice through the recruitment of additional talent.

“That was one of the things that attracted me to Dinsmore,” Nina said. “Knowing the caliber of attorneys here allows me to feel confident that when I eventually transition out of practice, my clients will be in excellent hands.”

Nina earned her J.D. from Loyola University School of Law, New Orleans, Louisiana.  Outside the office, she often finds clarity in her work while participating in triathlons, an endurance sport she says reminds her of the practice of law because of the discipline both endeavors require. Among her remarkable feats, she has conquered the English Channel as a member of the first ever Kentucky Team to do so and is currently training for a charitable swim across the northern stretch of Lake Huron.
