With extensive experience crafting persuasive briefs and delivering effective oral arguments in a variety of areas—employment, products liability, tax, medical malpractice, family law, personal injury, real estate and insurance issues, and felony criminal appeals—Paul regularly achieves successful outcomes in complex appeals, including cases before the Supreme Court of Missouri and the federal appellate circuits.

Paul also represents companies and individuals in default judgment and post-trial proceedings where significant financial exposure is at issue. His work includes setting aside defaults and pursuing post-trial relief. He also provides appellate consultation at trial, monitoring proceedings to ensure issues are properly preserved for post-trial and appellate review.

He volunteers with St. Louis Survivors Legal Support (SLSLS), helping survivors of intimate partner violence secure critical orders of protection and related relief. In addition, Paul serves as a Special Public Defender through the Missouri Coalition for the Right to Counsel, handling felony appeals for indigent defendants across Missouri.
