Mr. Conowal is the best attorney in the game.

As a single mother navigating the complex waters of family law, I found myself facing a daunting challenge: a grandparents’ rights petition filed against me. The weight of this legal battle was immense and had casted a dark cloud over my life for many months. From the moment I hired Mr. Conowal, my p...erspective shifted. Here’s why: Empathy and Understanding: Mr. Conowal listened to my fears, frustrations, and hopes. As a mother, I felt seen and heard—a rarity in the legal world. Clear Communication: Mr. Conowal’s ability to communicate effectively is unparalleled. He patiently answered my countless questions, providing clarity and reassurance. No legal jargon—just straightforward guidance. Tenacity and Advocacy: Unlike my previous attorney, who left me drowning in bills without progress, Christopher Conowal offered a strategic approach and fought for me. I can’t thank Mr. Conowal enough. Mrs. Tonya, equally remarkable, treated me with respect and compassion. They didn’t just handle my case; they held my hand through the storm. If you’re seeking an attorney who combines legal prowess with genuine care, look no further. Christopher Conowal is not just a lawyer; he’s a lifeline. I’d give him 50 stars if I could. Remember, your journey isn’t over yet. But with Christopher Conowal by your side, you’re in capable hands.

Great guy! Better lawyer!

Chris has a way of not making you feel like just a client. He and his staff did their best to make sure my family and I felt comfortable and cared for. Legal issues are not fun for anyone, but Chris helps to break it down in a way you can understand. He completed our case even faster than I anticip...ated. I highly recommend Mr. Conowal to anyone who has a family or criminal issue!!

Amazing Lawyer

Chris was such an amazing lawyer. He truly cares about his people and their lives. I was really scared to get a lawyer because of the stories I’ve heard of bad lawyers. But Chris really helped me get what I wanted. I would recommend to anyone who is worried or new to this kind of stuff. Thank you Chr...is for helping me but most importantly for helping my child get what he deserves.

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.

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."
