Paul Charles Smith's Lawyer Endorsements
"I've worked with Paul in cases both on the same side and as an opponent going on to 15 years now, and I've referred out clients to him when there was a conflict. He's smart, fair, efficient, and honest. I have found him to cut to the chase, and work towards the right/best/ most workable outcome that can be crafted with the elements a case presents."
