Paul has been a journalist, an attorney or a combination of the two all of his adult life. Following several years as a reporter and news director at three radio stations in CA and Tucson, he became a Phoenix attorney active in party politics and the community. He still has a political law practice, but in 2010, he also returned to his journalistic roots and co-founded ArizonasPolitics.com as a straight-news source providing context and original reporting. In 2019, he began ArizonasLaw.org and its accompanying program on the non-profit Sun Sounds of Arizona (a reading service for those with disabilities making it difficult to read/hold printed material).

He is happy to bring some of his articles to the award-winning Blog for Arizona. Reflecting his statewide interests, Paul grew up in Tucson. He and his wife, Marion, have two daughters who recently flew the nest for the cooler climes of Flagstaff.
