Rockville, MD

Paul has a sharp mind and knows the pharma/biotech business very well. He is efficient in sizing up situations and in providing advice that is always on target.

Paul's advice is always, and at the same time, both legally expert and pragmatic - a blend that is rarely found and tremendously valuable to his in-house clients as they navigate both "day-to-day" and "bet-the-company" issues. His depth and range of expertise and judgment across a wide array of corporate legal issues from securities law to M&A to corporate governance is truly impressive, and his extensive experience in the life sciences industry and appreciation of its unique disclosure and transactional issues are highly valued.
