Not your typical attorney

Paul does not tell people what they want to hear. He told it like it is. He was definitely not attentive, but he did the best work I could have asked for. He fought the prosecutor and worked him into dismissing my case. He is not out to waste anyone's time and is hard to get information from, but I w...ould hire him again in a second.

Definitely a fighter!

Paul was definitely NOT a hand holder or the world's best communicator, but he wasn't about to take ANY crap from the other side. Kept me out of jail!

Paul handled a Federal Drug case for me he was knowledgeable,but non responsive to my phone calls or letters and did not keep me informed of all the proceedings,nor did he keep his appointments.

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.
