Attorney Information
Overview
As a US Army veteran and former Olympic-level wrestler, Paul knows what it means to fight. For more than a decade, Paul applied that same determination and dedication as a successful advocate for his clients in his role as a defense attorney. During his tenure at one of the largest insurance companies in the country, Paul not only honed his skills as a litigator, working on every aspect of a case from its inception through trial, but also became intimately familiar with the inner workings of the defense bar. He is uniquely situated to use this knowledge in his fight to obtain maximum compensation for his injured clients. The son of a Central American immigrant, Paul is fluent in Spanish and dedicated to helping members of the Hispanic community navigate legal complexities.
Paul has served on the board of directors and the Judicial Screening Committee of the Suffolk County Bar Association (SCBA). He frequently authors articles published in the SCBA’s periodicals and serves as a lecturer for the Suffolk Academy of Law. In addition to his involvement at the SCBA, Paul is a member of the Nassau/Suffolk Trial Lawyers and the Long Island Hispanic Bar Association. He has served as the attorney advisor for the Hauppauge High School mock trial team.
Paul received his Juris Doctor Degree from Seton Hall Law School. He is admitted to practice in the New York State Courts as well as the United States District Court for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.
