Mediation

Somehow by the grace of god Chris had the ability to settle my divorce in mediation. My attorney, my ex husband and his attorney did not think we would be able to settle, but Chris made it happen. Chris was professional, reasonable and knowledgeable about finances and child custody. He made this long... and challenging process less stressful. I would recommend Chris as a mediator over and over again.

Chris and Diane genuinely care

Was in need of a good divorce attorney. When researching I was finding a lot of attorneys with reviews in which their clients complained that they were not happy mainly do to a lack of communication and they felt as though the attorney wasn’t doing his job of keeping them informed. With that I decide...d to consult with a couple of attorneys. When I first called to set up an appointment for consultation I spoke with his assistant Diane. Diane was very helpful and knowledgeable and in talking with her she just makes you feel like someone cares. I met whith Chris first and knew immediately this was the guy for me. He seemed to have a genuine interest in wanting to help. Once hired they set me up on My Case which is a cloud file system. Talk about keeping you in the loop on your case. My Case is awesome. It keeps you informed on every move, every document and every calander event that pertains to your case as well as vacation and holiday schedules of Chris and Diane It also has messaging and never once did any of my messages go unanswered. If I ever called with a question you could always count on your call being answered by Diane if she didn’t have the answer she would get it. Excellent in communication and at the end of the day that’s really one of the most important needs. Chris did a fantastic job of negotiating what I consider to be a very fair deal and stuck to his guns when needed. Needless to say Chris Diane and My Case made what was a very stressful time in my life as stress free as possible. I would highly recommend Chris if you’re looking for an excellent divorce attorney and one that never leaves you in the dark.

Better than a big firm

After getting fed up paying five figures over six months to a big firm in the Atlanta area to get nowhere, a friend reccomended I call Chris. Six weeks one mediation session and only a retainer later Chris successfully got a settlement agreement on my case. I wish I had started with him!

Humility and Wise Counsel in Child Custody

Mr. Conowal came highly recommended to me by one of his peers. I was pleased with his staff, confidence, availibilty, and quality. He carries himself with professionalism and compassion. His candor and honesty set him apart in his field. Its been said that Justice is blind. If you need help in m...atters of the law, trust Mr. Conowal's vision. He will protect and up hold the law while guiding his clients through what can feel like an overwhelming maze. I'm grateful and thankful for all he has done for me and my family.

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."
