"I endorse Paul as a family law attorney and a mediator. Paul and I have been opposed to each other in many family law related matters, and Paul has served as a mediator in family law cases I have had over past several years. Paul is always prepared, professional to opposing counsel, and is a very strong advocate for his clients. While Paul seeks to work toward a settlement, which is usually in a client's best interest, Paul is always ready and is prepared to litigate the matter in court."
