Excellent attorney

Had Paul represent me for a DUI, he did an amazing job getting everything reduced and getting me into ARD. My family and I can’t thank you enough!

Horrible lawyer

If you give this guy your money don’t give it all at once. I gave this man 7,500 he originally wanted 10,000 but i literally just gave birth a week prior and was able to provide the 7,500 in full. My kids father has been sitting and entire year stuck on a status conference because we can’t seem to ge...t Paul on the phone we spoke to him about 8 times in an entire yr. He wants me kids father to take the “first offer” knowing he can try hard to the point the judge noticed that something was off and they couldn’t see eye to eye Paul is a terrible lawyer and person

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.
