Paul Jay Walchenbach

My ex wanted to believe the very worst about me and her attorney fed that narrative. 3 Attorney’s dropped my case, or dropped the ball because her attorney would drown them in minutiae that consumed billable hours and devoured my life. Paul was recommended by a friend and he literally saved my sanit...y, my business & my future. He is rational, calm, professional & doesn’t want to play at being either your friend or your therapist (read: wasted billable hours). He’s direct, thorough, thoughtful & effective with resources & words. Don’t fall for the “wine & dine” or “Thera-ttorney” games played by too many practitioners. Paul is there to save you -sometimes from yourself and sometimes from your circumstances. I recommend Paul to anyone needing effective, ethical, humane representation.

You won't regret hiring Paul Walchenbach. He's honest, smart, seems to really care, and works very hard for his clients. Paul has helped me through a few different legal situations over the last 15 years. Every time I need something from him he takes the time to clearly explain all the relevant detai...ls in a way I can understand.

I was in a very dysfunctional marriage and wanted to file for divorce. The problem was my ex was overseas and basically laughed at the idea of agreeing to a divorced. I saw Pauls ad about a contested divorce. By the time I contacted Paul I was upset, drained and had no idea what to do. Paul's denea...nor towards me was calm he helped me understand that I still had rights abd that Ican get a divorce. So he helped me through the process and was there for me with all the attempts my ex would try and stall the process. He was helpful and a great advocate for me during a stressful time and yes I did get my divorce. I woukd recommend Paul to anyone is seeking a divorce especially a hard contested one.

I interviewed three attorneys before selecting Paul Walchenbach. During the consult interview he was thoughtful and meticulous about explaining the process and how best navigate through a divorce without racking up frivolous legal costs. It was clear he was not taking the blood thirsty path as the ...other attorneys I had interviewed appeared to have wanted to, but articulated he had my best interest in mind. To say that I handed Mr. Walchenbach a case resembling a lemon is an understatement however he managed to make lemonade and the end result was the best possible outcome. This was similar to watching a bad reality TV show in that I was blindsided by not only my spouse suddenly leaving the marriage but as time went on discovering things that were so well hidden during the marriage. What should have been 90 days and done took almost a year and turned out to include addictive, narcissistic, sociopathic behavior and abuse from my ex. I would venture say that even with 30 years of experience that there were a few “first time events” which Paul handled with utmost professionalism. He was honest, compassionate and provided realistic expectations. This was much more difficult than it should have been and Paul stayed even keeled and patent throughout. Based on my experience my advice to anyone who is “shopping” for an attorney for whatever reason is to keep in mind you are looking for a subject matter expert to team with and guide you through the legal process. Clients are responsible to stay engaged and understand the steps along the way regardless how hard that can be. I am grateful for the way Paul and his staff handled my divorce and highly recommend his services.
