This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Extremely happy

Mr. Lorincz understood the approach that I wanted to take and what I valued most, and applied it to his overall strategy. He was available whenever I needed him, and performed well in and out of the court room. He was steady in his demeanor, intelligent in his analysis, and consistent with his approa...ch to the case. I cared enormously about my case so I did a great deal of research on my own. Paul accepted all of it, sorted through it and was very wise with what he chose to utilize and what he set aside for backup information. Overall, I was extremely satisfied, not just with the outcome, but with his ability to reflect my stance and values in his representation. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.

Total confidence in Attorney Paul Lorincz

I have total confidence in Att. Paul Lorincz. All of his work is thorough, whether it is following the paper trail of a corporation or going before a zoning board. He has a calming affect on his clients. I referred a colleague to him, who was going through a messy divorce and needed to change atto...rneys. After she spoke with Paul the first time, she felt totally at ease. The divorce was completed within the time frame indicted, without the stress she had experienced, and to her satisfaction. Paul always has his clients best interest in mind, and his ego will not prevent him to settle a case, rather going to trial. We have a saying between us, " The only clients that want their day in court are those that have never been."

Divorce & family law client

Attorney Paul F. Lorincz has served as my personal attorney for twenty years. Paul first represented me during my divorce at the recommendation of a close family member, and later worked with me on various issues including estate and employment law. Attorney Lorincz is a consummate professional - c...aring, articulate, thoroughly prepared, and impeccable in his presentation. I highly recommend Paul F. Lorincz's legal services.

Outstanding Attorney

I have been associated with Paul for nearly three decades. He has been an invaluable, compassionate, attorney/adviser/friend to turn to in our times of need. Originally, Paul drew up our estate plans when our children were very young and he has continued to revise and update our plans as our life c...ircumstances have evolved. Paul is, first of all, a gentleman and a scholar. He is very calm, respectful, approachable, listens, processes, ’gets it,’ and gives helpful and wise guidance. He is readily available to talk with, if not immediately, he has always contacted us within a very short amount of time. Documents and instructions are always professionally presented and timely. Paul conducts himself in a highly professional manner, yet is highly approachable. I have never hesitated to pick up the phone and call him should I have a question or concern. I could not imagine having an attorney other than Paul Lorincz.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
