Professional. Meticulous.
Highest Integrity.

Read what clients and colleagues say about me on LinkedIn and Avvo:

A sharp legal mind, with the rare attributes (for an attorney) of a heart and a sense of humor. Erudite, educated, and articulate.
— Managing Broker in Seattle
I have consulted Paul regarding real estate matters on many occasions over the past 14 years and have always found him to be incredibly resourceful and brilliant!
— Owner & Designated Broker of a real estate firm
Paul’s expertise was absolutely invaluable to me as a new small business owner! He enabled me to really get my business off the ground and we are still thriving, in no small part due to his early advice.
— Former client
Mr. Drayna assisted me with a sensitive landlord-tentant issue. He was thoughtful, thorough, and professional and helped us come to a solution without the need for extensive and messy litigation.
— Former client
Paul is thorough, professional, friendly, and can be very aggressive on your behalf when he has to be. You could not ask for a better guy to have your back if you have the need for legal counsel.
— Former client
He calmly and professionally, and with the heart of a teacher, helped me understand the key issues, provided a well thought out opinion, and supported me during the action decided.
— Former client
The consummate attorney … helpful and exact in his opinions and direction for me. I recommend him without reservation. Highest integrity.
— Former client
Even though we were on opposite sides of the table during the negotiations, Paul clearly and professionally worked through our many disagreements and kept the negotiations friendly and on point… so even though he drove an incredibly hard bargain against me, I have the utmost respect for Paul as a professional and as a great guy.
— Owner & Designated Broker of a real estate firm
He epitomized professionalism while helping me navigate some potentially volatile circumstances, resulting in a positive outcome for everyone involved.
— Former client
He gave me a concise, professional explanation of the issues involved, both legal and personal. He was able to put my mind at ease, and to place the issue in context. His calming perspective was invaluable, and allowed me to make a more clear decision about what was in my own best interest.
— Former client
His counsel was vital to our ability to keep our home after a family death in the midst of the mortgage crisis. He asked the right questions, and when he wasn’t familiar with a particularly obscure quirk of title, knew exactly who to consult.
— Former client
Simply an astounding person to work with. He is meticulous and detail-oriented… I would not have thought, prior to meeting Paul, that time spent with one’s attorney could be such a positive experience.
— Managing Director of a non-profit client
Paul is a very capable attorney. I have always found his work to be thorough and meticulous… also an easy person to deal with even in intense, stressful or adversarial situations.
— Fellow lawyer
Paul is methodical without being plodding, aggressive without rancor, smart without isolation, and thorough without obsession. He is always a pleasure to speak to, casually or professionally, has an encyclopedic knowledge of his industry, and I endorse and recommend him without reservation!
— Fellow lawyer
Paul is the consummate professional. He is thorough and conscientious without a scintilla of arrogance. I am always impressed with his ability to communicate effectively in a calm and personable manner, even when under stress. I wish all my colleagues on legal matters were as easy to work with.
