Paul joined the firm in 1993 and has concentrated in litigation since joining the firm.  His civil litigation practice includes business litigation, workers’ compensation law, employment law, construction law, personal-injury law, and general civil litigation.  When not practicing law, Paul enjoys spending time with his family, exercising, fishing, and working in the yard.
