About

I am licensed to practice law in both the Florida state courts, and in the federal courts of the Middle District of Florida, though the focus of my practice is mainly in the state courts relating to civil/domestic disputes and criminal matters. I am a Past President of the Lake County Bar Association, and I am also an active member of the Family Law Section of the Florida Bar Association and the Lake County Teen Court. Additionally, I have previously served on the Board of Directors of the Lake County Bar Association, and have also served as the Chairman of the Lake County Chapter of the UCF Alumni Association.I earned my Juris Doctor at the University of Florida, College of Law. While at UF Law, I earned a Pro Bono Certificate for assisting members of the community in need of legal services. Prior to attending UF, I earned my undergraduate education at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, where I was awarded a Bachelor of Arts degree in Russian History, summa cum laude, with a minor in German Language, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science-Prelaw, summa cum laude, with a minor in European Studies.I will always put a client’s interests before anything else and I will go above and beyond to ensure that my clients receive the best possible legal advice and obtain positive results. I make a point to treat my clients the same way that I would treat a member of my own family.My office is in Tavares, Lake County, Florida. I am originally from the town of Grant-Valkaria, Florida in southern Brevard County, and I presently live in Clermont, Florida with my children, Gavin and Brynn.

Paul Darby is the best attorney in Central Florida. He goes above and beyond and is very detail-oriented. Not one of those intimidating attorneys. I was impressed by how down-to-earth he was and how caring. I feel like he treats his clients the same way he would treat a family member.

Mr. Darby is a magnificent attorney. He's helped me with my divorce and has gone above and beyond what I expected. I'm a father and he got me the best possible results. Everything we asked for, we got. If you want an experienced and friendly attorney, look no further. Thanks so much Mr. Darby.

Paul Darby has worked miracles for me. As everyone knows in the state of Florida it's a Mother's state and Paul was able to get me custody of my kids back after the mother filed an illegal motion with the court. Paul and his crew found out she had committed perjury and was all over it. If Ever I have to hire a family attorney he is the man I will go to. I highly recommend Paul Darby and his partners. Thank you again Paul for all your hard work you are the best

Paul Darby is a highly skilled and knowledgeable professional who will give the kind of above and beyond quality representation someone very much needs in the difficult areas of family law, divorce, and custody. Although I selected Paul to be my attorney from out of state and based on only a few reviews, I felt like I struck gold with him on my case. This is a professional you can select and have confidence that you will be treated with dignity, respect, and that you will receive the best representation possible.
