This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Hummm .. Where do I start ?

To be totally upfront in my review, Paul was pretty much worthless in my opinion. He came as a referral from another attorney. Go figure. He needs help with getting clients. A few words to sum up his personality: non assertiveness, talked very little, not a litigator by any means, lacked com...munication with me his client, did not return phone calls, have a plan of action, or simply be upfront to give advise. He wrote a couple of emails to another attorney, and then asked me what to do, and that was it ? I guess I was expecting too much right ? Maybe all these traits will get better with experience and age. Maybe not. I would definitely find a more experienced and assertive attorney. One who's a thinker and knows how to express himself. There are lots of attorneys in Houston. Pick another.

High Praise!

Mr. Romano was an Ad Litem Attorney on a highly contested guardianship matter. Mr. Romano was very professional and detail oriented. He clearly cared about his client and the people involved in a difficult situation. Mr. Romano worked diligently to find creative solutions, advocate for his client's... best interest, and had a very solid understanding of the law and how to apply it. I strongly recommend Paul Romano.

Paul Romano

Paul was very patient and always kept me in the know about my case. He was able to explain things clearly and was humble enough to as me to clarify specific things with my side of the case so he could better understand my position. He would impose his knowledge and expertise but also leave any decisi...on up to me. I felt guided but not pressured. I am confident in him as my attorney.

Customer Service

I engaged Paul to review documents and a partnership agreement relating to the start up of a new business venture. I needed it turned around quickly and Paul worked over a weekend to review and point out possible issues in these long and very detailed documents. After speaking with Paul I identified ...the important points to address and was able to get comfortable with the agreements. I will definitely use Paul again when needed.

RELIABLE

We have used Mr. Romano's partner, Kenny Sumner, for both our personal and business needs over the past years. He is knowledgeable and efficient. He has always worked above and beyond our expectations when handling our legal matters.
