Honest, Ethical Personal Injury Representation

A few years back, my wife was injured in a car accident that was the fault of an uninsured driver. Her insurer made us a very low offer that did not come close to compensating her for her injuries. I took the case to Paul and he said he could help me. He even agreed to base his fee only on what he co...uld obtain for us over and above what the insurance company had offer. It took about 6 months, but Paul negotiated a very good settlement that was about triple what we had been offered. Paul was honest and transparent during the entire process, and set realistic expectations from the outset. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs personal injury representation.

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.
