A noble attorney and team

Looking for a divorce attorney? Look no further! Chris and his team are AMAZING! Divorce is hard and painful, but Chris and his team always wear a smile and are willing to lend a listening ear. Tanya is so sweet and helpful. She helped me countless times with documents and questions. Chris wa...s very patient throughout the entire process. I had so many questions and he was always willing to answer, no matter via email, text, call, or in person meeting. He is very thorough and pays attention to all the little details and actually listens to your wants/needs. Divorce may be hard, but with the right attorney it becomes a little easier.

Conowal Law

As someone who loves words, I have to admit that I first just liked saying "Conowal Law" in an announcer’s voice. But after the scheduled consultation with Chris, I immediately felt at ease in hiring him to handle my divorce case. At the consultation, he explained the basics of uncontested vs contest...ed cases, was transparent about costs, and listened as I explained my specific situation. I realized during this initial meeting that the ease of manner I see in him is the result of years of experience as an attorney (including years of service as a mediator), and I remember thinking that this guy understands the gist of my case because he's handled so many cases, that he saw a clear path forward where I just saw brambles. I imagine Chris has seen so many variations upon the theme of marital distress and has developed such a keen awareness of type over his years of practicing law that he can handle a divorce case somewhat like a chess game once he sees the layout. He guided me through the timeline, the paperwork (like the super fun financial affidavit), the proposals and counter-proposals, the TPO I ended up needing, the mediation, and throughout it all, the steps I was allowed or not allowed to take, such as adding interior slide latches for security at night before I was able to change knobs and locks after the TPO. Chris also offers multiple methods of contact - phone, email, an online portal, a text messaging service. I literally showed up when the office opened the morning after a concerning incident occurred involving my ex-spouse and was able to talk on the phone with Chris within minutes so he could explain things I needed to do that day so as to avoid sleeping in a hotel another night with my two children. During the mediation, Chris’s confident and direct communication made it easy for me not to be sidelined by the emotions of the case, and once a settlement was reached, I left his office feeling something I never expected to feel in that moment - content. For real, if I ever find out that someone is in need of a lawyer for the same reason I was, I will most definitely recommend Chris Conowal.

Great Experience

Christopher Conowal handled my case very professionally. When my court date came up he was quick to inform me of the news. Stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process. Negotiated heavily on my behalf and pleased with the verdict. Would highly recommend Chris to anyone who needs a good law...yer.

The Best Around

Mr. Conowal is the guy to see. He has haloed many people that I know, and helped me with my case, with pure professionalism, and was able to work something out that I didn’t think was going to be possible. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and has top tier communication about everything surrou...nding my case. I would 10/10 highly recommend to anybody. This is top-tier talent!

The best around! Hands down!

I couldn’t be more thankful for this man. My world was turned upside down two weeks ago. He came and rescued me, at one of my lowest points in life. Today turned out to be the best day of my life, because of Chris. He deserves it all. One heck of an attorney that will get you what he says he will do!... He is articulate, well prepared, organized, and a great cross examiner! I’ll never be able to thank him enough!

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."
