Divorce Lawyer

I have had the privilege and honor of knowing Paul King for years. Most recently, he took on the most challenging role serving as my divorce attorney. Paul gave me the voice when I lost mine during the most trying time in my life. He uplifted and advocated for my child and I. He is one of the mos...t ethical, intelligent, well read, and eloquent people that I have encountered personally and professionally. Lucy V.
