Highly recommended

Paul made everything simple and painless with my case. He personally called me to review matters, answered all my concerns and put my mind at ease. He broke down all the things I needed to do and helped a lot of complicated matters make sense. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for help....

Hire the best

Paul handled my case with precision and excellence. He is not only a brilliant expert in his field but he also understands the complexity of every individual situation. I consulted with dozens of attorneys who couldn’t grasp the concept needed to complete my case. I recommend highly recommend him

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.
