Review of Paul Dworak 01-AUG-2019

Paul Dworak represented me in a dog attack case. I was walking in my neighborhood when a large breed dog bit and tore my forearm open. ER, rabies vaccination, several doctors visits, and physical therapy followed. I contacted Paul, upon recommendation, and he took my case. Paul contacted the loca...l police department, obtained the official report, had photos taken, gathered the ER report and doctors reports on my laceration, and had scar revision surgeon review. He assembled a complete and thorough file to present to the homeowners insurance company for full damages, including past and future medical bills, scarring and disfigurement, pain and suffering, and PTSD. Paul did a masterful job in presenting my case to the insurance company and negotiated a settlement that my family and I were in full agreement with. I highly recommend Paul Dworak for legal representation in any personal injury case.

First Amendment violation settlement

Paul Dworak represented me in my case in federal court against the local school district, the high school principle, and the police chief, for violating my First amendment right and defamation of my name. Paul's attention to detail and knowledge of the law resulted in the school district and pol...ice department losing a summary judgement and agreeing to a total payout of $425,000.00 settlement.

Falsely Accused of Criminal Sexual Conduct

Paul Dworak is an outstanding Defense Attorney. He is extremely intelligent, knowledgeable, articulate, professional, respectful, caring, personable, and culturally sensitive. Paul represented me when I was falsely accused of serious criminal sexual conduct. Paul believed in my innocence and work...ed very hard to defend me. Paul was very responsive from beginning to end. He was always on top of the case, covered all angles, and presented well in court. I was super impressed with his calm demeanor in court, ability to think “outside the box” on complex legal issues, and respond quickly. As a result of his exceptional work and due diligence, I was found “Not Guilty”. Paul, thank you for proving my innocence and for giving my life back. For that my family and I are forever grateful. We would highly recommend Paul to everyone!!!

Lawyer you want on your side

Paul represented me in a large criminal case where I was charged with theft by swindle and theft of IP. He was always responsive to any questions I had about the process, case specifically and options available. Paul pushed on key legal issues that eventually resulted in the dropping off all but on...e of the charges and no jail time. I would recommend Paul to anyone who has business issues.
