Great attorney

Richard Lowell successfully guided me through my appeal with the Merit System Protection Board. He was very easy to work with and always responded to my questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal assistance.

Case cintinues

Mr. Lowell has been a great asset to me. He handled his role as a lawyer representing me and got excellent results and compliments from the Organization for which we were perusing. The results have been verbally positive, yet final outcome has not happened and financial results have not been distribu...ted as of today. He does what he says he's going to do and shares the information he has. I would recommend him to others

IDHR

Richard A. Lowell represented me in an sexual harassment, age discrimation case against my previous supervisor in a school district. Richard is a very knowledgeable attorney in employment law. As a matter of fact, I won the case with the IDHR. Without Richard I don't think this would of been possible.... I would highly recommend this attorney.

Best Employment Lawyer in DuPage County

Richard Lowell handled my legal case with extreme professionalism and knowledge. My legal case was filled with complicated issues that were multi-faceted and Richard was able to discern the appropriate legal action needed to pursue the case with vigor and confidence. His knowledge of employment law... and the detailed time he put into my case was extraordinary. Richard is fair and upfront with everything regarding my case; from what the financial expectations were, to what compensation I could expect from the case. I highly recommend Richard Lowell for counsel in any legal matter and particularly employment law. He has exceeded my expectations and is superior in his ability to navigate legal issues. K. C.

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.

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.
