This review is from a person who hired this attorney.
| Hired 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 approach 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 attorneys. 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."

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 circumstances 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.

Exceptional Attorney
I have hired Paul multiple times over the past 10 years for both personal and business issues . He is an exceptional lawyer that made himself readily available around my busy schedule. He either took every phone call or got back to me the same day with out exception. I have referred Paul to many clients and friends and they all reported the same level of professionalism and excellent outcomes that I have always experienced. I would highly recommend Paul Lorincz to any one seeking an attorney.

Highly Recommend
Paul has worked for me for the past 4 years and continues to be my lawyer of choice. While the divorce is now final, the business aspects continue to require his expertise. Every step of the way Paul has been very professional, detail oriented, highly responsive and a good friend.

Paul Lorincz Review
Paul was very professional, knowledgeable and responsive to my case. He was very diplomatic in all settlement discussions, but in a very respectful manner held ground and represented my position and interests very well. Paul has a very commonsense approach and did not do things that would cost me time or money unnecessarily . Paul was recommended to me by an attorney I work with on business transactions and I could not have been happier with the recommendation. I have worked with many attorneys in the past on business matters and Paul is of the highest caliber I have ever dealt with.
