Dan Norton is an attorney working for the Agostini & Norton law firm, and Benjamin Linus's lawyer.

Kate's Blood Sample Case

A couple of years after the rescue of the Oceanic 6, Norton appeared at Kate Austen's door during a breakfast with her son. Norton appeared with a threatening and silent man behind him, and informed Kate that he worked for the law firm Agostini & Norton, before going on to tell her that he had a judge-signed court order for both her and her son to give up blood samples so that a maternity test could be done. When asked, Norton refused to tell Kate who his client was. Kate refused to give any blood, ignoring Norton's threats to return with a sheriff, and slamming the door in his face. ("Because You Left")

Later, Kate met with Norton in his office, and offered to consent to the blood tests if Norton would let her meet with his client. Norton told her that his client would almost undoubtedly say no, as well as advising her to prepare herself for losing custody of Aaron. Soon afterwards, Norton left his office to meet Carole Littleton, his client in a lawsuit against Oceanic Airlines, at a motel. Kate and Jack had followed, leading them to falsely believe that Carole was wanting custody of Aaron. Norton then traveled on to a parking deck, where he met with Benjamin Linus, informing him that due to his efforts, Hurley would soon be released from prison. Ben refers to Norton as his lawyer, and later reveals that he is Norton's client in the custody battle for Aaron. ("The Little Prince")
