Great Lawyer

Paul has helped me get thru my divorce which was a very irritating and lengthly process. He did every thing he could to make sure I came out on top! I highly recommend Paul Kowal to be your divorce lawyer!!!

Excellent Attorney

I've been working with Paul for close to 3 years now. My divorce was probably more challenging than most, yet Paul excelled in every way. He gave me comforting, as well as practical advice during my first phone call, when I had absolutely no idea as to how to choose an attorney. During the consul...tation, Paul advised of a sound strategy on how to handle the situation for both me and my children, and it proved to be a winning solution. My divorce took nearly a year, and Paul continually provided dynamic suggestions to adjust for the continually changing and challenging situations. My post divorce situation was almost as bad, and Paul continued to fight on my children's behalf, to make sure they were properly taken care of by my ex. He has a courtroom presence that shows he is empathic and well informed of the law, without being pushy and always remaining professional. I'd recommend him to females and males, whether you have filed or are the defendant. He is confident, experienced, trustworthy and he truly cares. You won't find a more valuable attorney than Paul Kowal.

Paul S. Kowal Divorce Lawyer

After reaching a settlement of divorce with m mediation team, Paul prepared all court required documents and filings. He answered all questions I had before the final court appearance. After the divorce was final I required an amendment which Paul took care of expeditiously. I would definitely rec...ommend Paul to anyone needing a focused, thorough, and caring attorney.

Outstanding Attorney

Paul was very professional and knowledgeable in every step of my divorce case. He was very thorough in explaining what the pros and cons were for each possible option. When it came to the expectations of what was going to happen he made everything smooth without any glitches. So I would highly recom...mend Paul if you need a good Attorney!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
