Paul Rives represents the young ambition that is propelling the Law Offices of Rives & Rives into the next generation of law practice. He combines his knowledge of computer assisted litigation strategies with the experience offered by his father's highly established practice to provide cutting edge and cost-effective legal representation for his clients.
Paul received his certificate in Trial Advocacy at the McGeorge School of Law during a time when McGeorge's Advocacy program was ranked fifth in the nation. Paul has been able to use technology as a tool to supplement these
