Adoption

Our adoption journey began 3 years ago. Mr. Conowal was there every step of the way from Temporary Custody, Permanent Custody, and finally to Adoption. He answered our questions. He drove countless miles. He and Diane truly went the extra mile to help our journey to adoption go as smoothly as pos...sible. Our family is thankful and blessed to have worked with Mr. Conowal.

Beyond thankful for Chris, Diane and Karina

Words cannot describe how thankful I am for Chris, Diane and Karina. Unfortunately, my reasoning for reaching out to Chris was to guide me in the process of filing for a divorce after almost 13 years of marriage. Filing for divorce was the toughest decision I have ever had to make. My husband at the ...time and I have 3 minor children together, which as you can imagine, makes filing for a divorce even more difficult. Thanks to Chris, Diane and Karina’s hard work, we were able to reach the best possible custody arrangement for our family. Chris always, and I mean always, had my family’s best interest at heart. I trusted Chris fully and I am so thankful I did. Chris is honest, has always communicated well with me, always prompt in his responses to my (very lengthy) messages, never has rushed me in anyway, always has taken the time to ensure I understood the “legal” part in this process. And again, I do not feel I can stress this enough, Chris, Diane and Karina were always there for me and my kids, always! There was a few times, during this process, I've called the office in tears, Diane has been the best support I could have ever imagined having. I love her for her caring heart, she truly, truly cares! This office communicates well with each other, anytime I have spoken to Diane, Chris always followed up with me. I truly cannot thank Chris, Diane and Karina enough for their assistance, time, and hard work. I will be forever grateful and thankful for Chris, Diane and Karina and would highly recommend them if you are looking for a divorce attorney.

The attorney you want in your corner! Trust me.

Chris Conowal was the only reason that I will get to see my kids this Christmas. My wife an I had an argument, she sought assistance from a women's advocacy group who convinced her to trump up a TPO even though no act of family violence occurred. This stripped away my rights unilaterally. I was unabl...e to see my kids, have use of the marital home, they took my guns, and I could not come within 500 yards of her or the home. It made my life miserable for a month. Chris listened to me. He listened to my goals and my desire to save my marriage, in spite of the TPO. He walked the fine line between defending me in court, and not ruining my marriage with a nasty court case. It was impressive to watch. He and his staff were professional and very well prepared. They were like watching a team that had worked together forever. Chris was precise in his craft, and excelled in his lines of questioning and how he positioned his arguments. I could not be more happy with the service that Chris Conowal provided. I would definitely recommend.

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.

Visitation Agreement

Mr. Conowal is a Great lawyer. He helped my Husband with his visitation agreement with his son. He listens and gives great advice. He truly cares about his clients. I highly recommend him and we will definitely use him again!! His receptionist Diane is amazing!! She was always just an email or phone ...call away if we had any questions. She was always very quick to respond.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I have known Chris for many years. I attended undergraduate school and law school with Chris and now have the honor of being his partner at Conowal - Welch, LLP. Chris works tirelessly for his clients. Chris is a seasoned litigator that is at home in the courtroom. He is also an amazing mediator with a proven track record. If you need someone to help you with your criminal defense, I would, without hesitation, recommend Chris."

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."
