Paul prides himself on finding innovative practical solutions geared to serving business needs and desired outcomes.

Paul has served as general counsel of leading managed care companies, acting as day-to-day counsel on a wide variety of matters relating to the ownership and management of Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plans (including the largest plan in Puerto Rico) and affiliated MSO operations and provider clinics, as well as performing general corporate work. Paul also has served as counsel to independent provider groups, including groups serving Medicare Advantage and Medicaid beneficiaries.

Earlier in his career Paul served as General Counsel and then Executive Vice President, Acquisitions and Development, of a NYSE-listed owner, manager and developer of skilled nursing and assisted living facilities.
