About Paul T.
Paul T. Jarboe has practiced law in Michigan for several decades. He earned his Juris Doctor from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School in 1982 after completing a Bachelor of Arts at Michigan State University in 1979. Those academic foundations set the stage for a long-run practice grounded in state law.
He moved into private practice following law school and has worked in Michigan courts throughout his career. Early years in practice gave him routine exposure to the procedural side of litigation and the day-to-day demands clients place on their counsel. Over time he built a steady practice that remained rooted in the state where he was educated.
Jarboe is associated with the firm Jarboe & Pfeil. At the firm he advises and represents clients in matters that arise under Michigan law. His work is carried out from the firm’s offices, where he collaborates with colleagues on case strategy and client counseling. He handles filings, court work, and client meetings in a practice that emphasizes responsiveness and practical legal solutions.
He maintains current memberships in professional associations and participates in the legal community in Michigan. That engagement keeps him aware of changes in state rules and court procedures. It also provides contacts across the bench and bar that clients can draw on when a matter requires coordination with other professionals.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparation and straightforward in courtroom demeanor. He favors direct communication with clients about risks and options. Case preparation tends to be thorough; he focuses on the facts and on making persuasive, fact-based arguments to judges and opposing counsel.
Outside the courtroom he remains connected to the state where he studied and practices. His education at Michigan State University and Cooley Law School informs how he approaches legal problems, blending academic training with hands-on experience.
Today he practices at Jarboe & Pfeil in Michigan, where he continues to handle matters arising in Michigan courts and to advise clients on state law issues.
