About Paul A.
Paul A. Lange earned his B.A. from Long Island University's C.W. Post Campus in 1982. He went on to receive a J.D. from the University of Bridgeport in 1986 and completed an M.B.A. at C.W. Post in 1988. Those credentials set the stage for a practice that crosses both legal and business lines.
He is admitted to practice in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York, and he holds admission in several federal forums. Those include the U.S. Supreme Court, the Federal Circuit, and multiple regional courts of appeals: the D.C. Circuit, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Circuits. That range has shaped the kinds of matters he takes on and the venues in which he appears.
Lange’s work centers on appeals and federal filings. He handles matters that require briefing and oral argument at the appellate level. His practice encompasses litigation that moves beyond trial court record work into the questions of law that appellate courts resolve. Over time he has developed routines for preparing appellate records, drafting briefs, and presenting legal issues in written form.
His business training informs his legal perspective. The M.B.A. gives him a sense for financial and organizational aspects of disputes. That background can be useful when cases involve complex transactions, statutory interpretation affecting regulated entities, or legal problems that intersect with corporate decision-making. Colleagues describe his approach as methodical; he tends to frame legal questions in ways that connect to broader business realities.
Lange began practicing law in the mid-1980s. That span of time has allowed him to accumulate experience across a range of federal and state matters, even as the appellate landscape has evolved. He has maintained admissions in several appellate courts and in state bars, which makes it easier for him to accept cross-jurisdictional work when it arises.
He continues to practice in federal and state appellate courts and accepts matters that require appellate briefing and filings before regional circuits and the Supreme Court. His current practice concentrates on appellate and federal court work, where he manages briefing, filings, and related procedural strategy.
