The People’s Lawyer

I was recommended to Attorney Paul Himmel after my injury by a friend. The Best recommendation ever! I had no clue of how the system worked. Thanks to Paul and his professional staff I was given the care and compensation I deserved. He took a confusing, painful and anxiety producing situation and ma...de it bearable. His professional guidance, compassion, knowledge and leadership lead to a great outcome. Paul is a kind and friendly person. He was always available to answer all my questions and concerns. His personality is calming and soothing which helped with the anxiety of not knowing what’s next. I highly recommend him for all your legal issues! Thank you Paul for being the “PEOPLES “ lawyer!

The best workers comp lawyer in Philadelphia

My experience working with Paul and his legal team was professional and I’m very grateful for all the hard work and dedication to my case. Paul brings great experience and a wealth of knowledge. He returns phone calls (even on evenings and weekends), really listens to you, is precise and to the p...oint. He is extremely smart and very experienced. He took my case personally and fought for me. I’m very happy with my overall experience and I would definitely recommend him.

Posted by GEORGE | April 12, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Wrongful Termination

A1- class act

Some may measure a man on how well he leads, protect, provides, and guides ones family. With 2 kids in college, and one at home, everything I worked for in life was in jeopardy due to a workplace injury . That's when I meet and entrusted in paul himmel to get me through the lowest point of my life. A...s my career job was trying to terminate me bc I couldn't no longer perform my duties, paul himmel stepped in with his great knowledge of the law, experience, savvy, and guidance. He stopped any and all wrongful termination, and was aggressive enough in his defense , not to settle for just any amount, because the well being of my family and their future was the driving force behind his efforts. GREAT JOB PAUL GETTING MY LIFE BACK ON TRACK.

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.
