As a specialist in domestic and global financial management, Paul provides all clients, especially those in the EDM industry, with unprecedented services in local and international tax issues, global income and asset recognition, currency and economic risk management, visa issues, family offices, copyright/trademark infringement risk, captive insurance, wealth management, estate and legacy planning. Paul’s knowledge of the industry ensures that all EDM artists strategically structure themselves to find success not only on stage but off stage as well.

Trusted and respected by both domestic and international clients, in business sectors ranging from hotel and real estate to engineering and medicine to arts and entertainment, Paul has consistently and repeatedly demonstrated his ability to exceed client expectations.
