Out of state consult

I spoke with Mr. Fromson this afternoon, from Florida where I now reside. I have a couple of legal issues still in California, both criminal and family. Mr. Fromson returned my call quickly and was very personable and respectful on the phone. He was knowledgeable about the subjects that pertained to... my cases and discussed options and next-step scenarios with me. He was also very candid that his prices are top-end, but assured me that his level of service was appropriate for the rate. I feel confident that he is being accurate about that, and there's no question that the services I would require are worth the fees he quoted me. I will do further research as the cost will be fairly significant for my income so I have not signed on with Mr. Fromson at this time. But I am definitely keeping his information on hand and would recommend to anyone who is ready to pay the price to clear up legal trouble that you call him for at least a phone consultation.

Excellent Lawyer - Child Custody

I am in the position of having to hire Mr. Fromson again for a child custody matter. Yes he is expensive but trying to handle the situation myself was too stressful because law enforcement, womans help centers, and the courts could not tell me what I could and could not do when the situation got vio...lent and out of control. Having Mr. Fromson handling the case and saying you can do this, and we can do this, made all of the difference. He also has access to resources in the legal systems and can get processes moving & answers!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Paul for many years. He is an energetic, kind and smart lawyer. Paul's enthusiastic support for positively assisting clients in the divorce transition, together with his deep knowledge of the law and his extensive courtroom experience make him a solid advocate. He is thoughtful, compassionate and a zealous representative. However, he is able to reach a negotiated settlement when there is a settlement to be had. I strongly endorse Paul as a colleague and excellent human being."

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.
