Exceeds highest expectations

I engaged Paul to represent me in an extremely complex business issue that involved both professional and personal liabilities for me. As a retired senior corporate executive from a public company, I brought extremely high expectations. Paul was honest and realistic initially, presenting a well-defin...ed picture of reasonable expectations and risk exposure. Coupled with his wise counsel, this allowed me to make informed decisions resulting in the best resolution possible avoiding any unnecessary expenses. He was very responsive and always available with a unique sense of empathy and compassion as well as extremely competent in suggesting decisions that balanced personal, financial and professional implications. I would highly recommend him for both simple and challenging legal needs.

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.
