Paul Russell Allen

Don’t let his friendliness fool you—Paul has developed a reputation for advancing his clients’ interests with tenacity and grit. Divorce is often complex and emotionally charged. Paul’s family law practice focuses on helping his clients understand their rights and the rights of their children, and stresses resolving disputes through settlement negotiations and mediation. When settlement cannot be reached through negotiation, Paul’s courtroom experience enables him to represent his clients effectively through trial. Paul also represents businesses, business owners, and homeowner associations in all types of business and property disputes, often helping his clients recover money they are owed. He takes pride in efficient and effective enforcement of contractual and financial obligations.

Paul is a member of the Oregon State Bar and the Oregon State Bar Construction Law Section. He has been a featured speaker and co-presenter to lawyers, judges, business owners, marketing professionals, real estate agents, and lending officers on the topics of litigation procedure, secured lending, judicial foreclosure, condominium and homeowners’ association law, and intellectual property protection. Paul is legal counsel for the Emerald Marketing Association and is a panel attorney for small business development organizations in Eugene and Springfield.

Paul volunteers with Lane County Legal Aid, the Lane County Campaign for Equal Justice, and the Disciples of Dirt Mountain Bike Club. He also is a mentor with the Oregon State Bar’s New Lawyer’s Mentor Program.
