#winning

Chris was a great lawyer! He has had to deal with two different opposing lawyers over the course of the years and handle both with flying colors. One was for divorce. I got pretty much every single thing I wanted. The second was for my ex going after child support even though we had 50/50 custody ...and she stopped working. It was very obvious at the end who the prevailing party was. Nobody wants to have to hire a lawyer and deal with this. But if you want to win use Chris!!

Excellent Attorney - Highly Recommend

In what I thought would be an otherwise very contentious and extremely drawn out divorce process ended up not being the case at all. Chris Conowal and staff provided exceptional guidance and his experience played a key role in finalizing my divorce during mediation. Not only was everything finalized ...during mediation, it could not have gone any better . Proposed agreements were produced and signed off on by both parties immediately with full attention to detail to mitigate disagreements down the road associated with both custody and asset decisions. I could not have been more pleased with the outcome. Thank you, Chris and Team!

He covers all the bases top to bottom

I hired Chris as my attorney for a divorce case. Chris and his staff were outstanding. Chris in particular was amazing in and out of the courtroom he gives you personal attention and has a caring heart and I would recommend him to anyone that needs an attorney. I can’t thank Chris, especially and al...so his staff enough for what they’ve done for me. I am grateful to God that Chris was put in my path.

Outstanding Divorce Lawyer

My mother had the privilege of working with Chris Conowal and his team (Tonya and Jacob). I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are not only exceptionally knowledgeable and strategic in their legal expertise, but also demonstrate a rare level of compassion and empathy for their clients. Chris C...onowal and his legal assistant, Tonya took the time to truly understand my mom’s concerns and priorities, ensuring she felt supported throughout the entire process. Their clear communication and thoughtful guidance made all the difference in navigating her case. If you're looking for a lawyer who combines intelligence with a genuine commitment to helping others, Chris Conowal is the ideal choice.

Family lawyer | Jun 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I highly endorse Chris Conowal. Chris was my law clerk for over two years while he was attending law school. At that time, I observed his sharpened skills as a researcher and writer. Chris assisted me in the preparation of several of my federal prosecutions. Chris was tenacious in his endless desire to work so as to obtain the best results for our clients. Now that Chris has his own law practice, I associate him in cases where his assistance as co-counsel is warranted. Chris is a fantastic litigator and I highly recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent trial attorney. You cannot go wrong hiring Chris Conowal as your attorney."
