Effective Communication

Attorney Paul Previte is awesome along with his team. This was my 1st time ever needing a lawyer for anything, so I had no idea where to start. I received a breakdown of everything I needed to be a successful as possible. Attorney Paul is genuine and still very direct which I appreciate.

This was my first time needing legal services. I was intimidated and overwhelmed. Paul put me at ease and explained every step of the way. He was accessible, professional, and worked hard for my case. I definitely recommend him and his services. Thank you Paul.

Highly Recommend

Paul Previte was very professional when handling my case. He was very concerned for my well being and continuously kept in contact with me via text, and phone calls. He acted swiftly and with the full force of his legal knowledge to get my case dismissed with a “no bill” decision in less than two wee...ks. His legal services were reasonably priced and the outcome was very favorable. Would highly recommend Paul Previte and his legal office for any legal issue that may occur. I am pleased, thank you Paul for all your help.

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.
