The lawyer you want on your side

Mr Fromson and his staff are great. They represented me diligently me through my divorce and later with reducing my spousal support. They always had my back and provided me with sound advice. There was no doubt they always represented me, and my best interest always came first. Thank You

The King of the Divorce Ring

Paul has been amazing! I've been going through an extremely difficult divorce due to spouse constantly misrepresenting facts, hiding assets, and secretly funneling tens of thousands of dollars to her kids and who knows what else to try and convince the court that she had no income in the hopes getti...ng $3,000 per month in temporary support. Paul destroyed her at my first court appearance, and she then offered to stipulate to $500 per month. Later, she made several requests to increase the amount she wanted to stipulate too because she got fired from her job and claimed she couldn't find suitable employment. At the hearing on her motion for increased support, Paul exposed her sham efforts by showing that most of her applications were to the SAME EMPLOYER WHO FIRED HER! Also, he provided the court with almost three dozen current opening with public entities in Merced and surrounding counties that paid as much or more than she had been making and got her to admit that she'd applied for none of those positions. The bottom line is that every request she's made has either been denied, although the court did temporarily increase her support twice. However, as Paul kept digging into her financials, she eventually agreed to waive any more temporary support. The guy is AWESOME!! If you're dealing with a deceitful, unreasonable spouse, you better hire Paul Fromson. Seriously. I would've been screwed without him.

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."

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.
