Paula Coffman - Orlando Appeals Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

I was the first in my family to graduate from college. I married my high school sweetheart at 19. Today, we have two adult sons and two grand-dogs, and are still married after nearly 40 years. For the last 30-something years, I have served as a legal advocate - first as a government lawyer representing the State of Florida and, more recently, as a defense attorney representing those accused and convicted of crimes. It is the only type of law I have ever practiced and the only type of law I have ever cared to practice. I opened my own firm in 1998 in Orlando, where I was born and raised. It’s just me and my assistant, Naomi. Being detail-oriented, I prefer a small case load, one that allows me to provide personalized attention to my clients and their families. Helping to ensure that criminal defendants receive their fair day in court is a challenging and gratifying responsibility and one that I take very seriously. Next to life itself, there is nothing more important than freedom. In an adversary process, there are two sides to every story. I would be honored to have the opportunity to tell yours.
