About Raymond

Raymond Tarnowski began his academic journey at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he earned a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communications. He went on to study law at Villanova University, receiving his J.D. from a program known for blending practical skills with doctrinal training. That combination of communication and legal study informs how he approaches complex matters and written advocacy.

After law school, Tarnowski entered private practice. He is a member of the American Bar Association and of the Chester County Bar Association, maintaining ties to professional networks that reach beyond his local market. Those affiliations connect him to ongoing legal developments and provide avenues for peer consultation and continuing education.

Colleagues describe his work as straightforward and detail-oriented. His background in journalism appears in his preference for clear, concise drafting. He favors plain language in client communications and briefs, aiming to make legal points accessible to nonlawyers and judges alike. He also places value on structured analysis and factual accuracy when preparing for hearings or negotiations.

Tarnowski practices at Simon and Simon, PC. At the firm he handles client matters across a range of issues, drawing on both his legal training and earlier experience in journalism. He has worked on procedural matters, written appellate-style memoranda, and advised clients on case strategy. He balances courtroom preparation with case management tasks, organizing facts and documents so clients are ready when deadlines arrive.

Outside of individual matters, Tarnowski stays engaged with the legal community through his bar memberships. He attends meetings and educational programs offered by local and national bar groups to stay current on court decisions and practice trends. That ongoing professional involvement supports the practical work he does for clients.

He is based at Simon and Simon, PC, where his practice centers on client representation and written advocacy at both the trial and pretrial stages.
