About Paul
Biography
Client Rating 5 Stars !!!
I have been a Trial Lawyer for more than 40 years and have tried more than 150 cases to a Jury Verdict and handled hundreds of others. The most important thing that I ALWAYS do my BEST to NEVER FORGET is that although I may have several cases ongoing, my CLIENTS ONLY HAVE ONE CASE - and THAT CASE is the MOST IMPORTANT legal matter IN THEIR LIVES at that moment. I let this be my guiding light in how I conduct my affairs with my Clients.
