Bio
Jeff earned his undergraduate degree from Texas A&M University in 1988 and then graduated in 1992 in the top 10% of his class from Baylor University School of Law. It was at Baylor University School of Law where Jeff met his lovely wife, Becky. Becky graduated from The University of Texas at Austin in 1990 with a degree in finance and completed her law degree at Baylor in 1993. Together, they have four wonderful children.
In 1997, the Paradowskis moved to College Station, where Jeff established Paradowski Law. After a few years of practicing law, Becky chose to become a stay-at-home mom. Jeff is a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, the American Board of Trial Advocates, and the Association of Justice. Jeff has actively handled and tried to juries a number of commercial litigation cases and injury cases in all areas of personal injury trial law, including automobile accidents, trucking cases, medical negligence cases and products liability.
Jeff and Becky Paradowski’s generosity and commitment to serving others has greatly enriched the community in which they live. Jeff notably defended Abby Johnson and the local Coalition for Life against a lawsuit from Planned Parenthood after Abby became a dedicated pro-life advocate.
The Paradowskis are also the founders of the annual Christmas Bikes for Kids, which each year gives away 100 new bicycles to deserving kids throughout the Brazos Valley. Jeff and Becky are members of St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church and St. Mary’s Catholic Church in College Station. In 2015, Jeff was awarded the Lumen Gentium Award, an award given annually to lay individuals who exemplify the spirit of Christ as explained by the documents of the Second Vatican Council. (“You are the light of the world… your light must shine in the sight of all, so that, seeing your good works, they may give the praise to your Father in heaven” Mt 5:14,16). Jeff and Becky played a key role on the New Church Steering Committee at St. Mary’s Catholic Church, making significant contributions to the mission and success of St. Mary’s. They are also members of both the Living Faith Society and the JPII Legacy Society at St. Mary’s. And in 2024, Jeff and Becky were recognized at St. Mary’s with the Stella Maris Award, given annually to an individual or married couple in recognition of outstanding contributions to their communities, their professions, the Catholic Church and to St. Mary’s Catholic Center. Stella Maris is an ancient title given to Mary and means, “Our Lady, Star of the Sea.”
The Paradowski family continues to grow, blessed with the addition of two daughters-in-law and two precious granddaughters.
