About Paul L.
Paul L. Orshan began a path toward law after completing an undergraduate degree in sociology at Tulane University in 1978. He returned to the classroom a decade later and earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Miami School of Law in 1988. Those two educational stops framed a career that has unfolded across private practice and client representation.
Early in his career he moved into private practice. He built experience in matters that private firms typically handle for individual and business clients. He has remained in practice since earning his J.D., handling the steady demands of client work, case preparation and courtroom procedure when needed. The steady rhythm of practice has shaped how he approaches files and clients alike.
Over the years he has taken on files that required careful legal analysis and practical problem solving. He has handled factual investigations, drafted pleadings and motions, engaged in negotiations and represented clients at hearings. He has also balanced the administrative side of running a law practice, overseeing case management and client communications. Those roles have kept him connected to the day-to-day realities of practicing law.
He is affiliated with Orshan, P.A., where he continues his legal work. Colleagues and clients see him as dependable on routine legal tasks and matters that require persistence. He has combined courtroom work and transactional assignments at different points in his career, adapting to the shifting demands of practice.
As of 2026 he maintains an active practice at Orshan, P.A., and his current practice focuses on client representation and legal counsel.
