“North Fulton Business Radio,” Episode 205:  Paul Knowlton, Ubercounsel

Paul Knowlton, Ubercounsel, joins “North Fulton Business Radio” to discuss how he combines his legal expertise with his pastoral care and counseling experience to better serve his clients, the spirituality of business ownership, and much more. It’s a fascinating, thought provoking discussion. The host of “North Fulton Business Radio” is John Ray and the show is broadcast from the North Fulton Business RadioX® studio based in Alpharetta.

Paul Knowlton, Ubercounsel: The Firm of Paul Knowlton, J.D., M.Div.

Ubercounsel, the Law Firm of Paul Knowlton, J.D., M.Div., is more than a law firm. It’s an extension of the founder as a person; a highly trusted and skilled attorney-counselor whose counsel and action are fueled by compassion. Other firms have vision statements, Ubercounsel has a soul.

Drawing from the unique combination of the founder’s legal, business, and pastoral counseling successes, the firm presently offers six categories of services:

First Step: Evaluating and crafting your action plan
Family Care: Protecting your personal and financial objectives
Business Law & Consulting: Legal and executive experience helping you succeed
Conflict & Dispute Resolution: Skilled assistance getting to your best resolution
Pastoral Care & Counseling: A holistic posture to helping you see and go deeper
Professional Development & Coaching: Supporting your growth on the journey

About Paul Knowlton:

Paul Knowlton Ubercounsel
Paul Knowlton, Ubercounsel

Prior to law school Paul’s corporate roles include being a construction superintendent with Ryland Homes and a forensic engineer with Georgia Pacific. During law school he clerked for and joined an intellectual property boutique, also becoming a patent attorney, that was soon acquired by Kilpatrick Stockton. At Kilpatrick and later at his first firm, he built a successful intellectual property prosecution and litigation track record. Paul initiated, co-founded and was the managing member of a successful IP boutique and then later the director of another. After successfully serving as the CEO of a large human services agency, he most recently launched his second firm Ubercounsel and received an appointment at Mercer University.

In addition to being licensed in GA and the 11th Circuit, a registered patent attorney, a Henning trained mediator and arbitrator, a Martindale Hubbell Distinguished attorney, and Georgia Trend Legal Elite, in 2014 he earned his Master of Divinity with a concentration in pastoral care and counseling. An active leader of the State Bar of Georgia’s Attorney Wellness and Lawyer Assistance Program committees, he offers solutions to the stresses of professional life.

What is Paul’s back story, and particularly why does he have a passion for family care, pastoral counseling, and professional development?

The son of an immigrant Hispanic mother and federally convicted father, Paul was placed in foster care as were all his siblings. From a very early age he has the lived experience of the relentless stresses, anxieties, and fears that push so many of us to irreconcilable despair.

Turning inwardly as a young adult to develop the skills to recover, redirect, and wildly prosper after a brutal beginning, he is an attorney-counselor who is authentically and creditably a friend on the journey.

Dr. Ashish Advani and Dr. Ted Matthews of Mercer University

Mercer University Health Services

We sat down with Dean and SVP of Health Services, Dr. Ted Matthews, and Dr. Ashish Advani, Clinical Associate Professor of Pharmacy from Mercer University.  Mercer University’s College of Pharmacy is ranked among the top five pharmacy programs at private institutions in the United States, according to U.S. News & World Report. The College offers doctoral degrees in pharmacy (Pharm.D.) and pharmaceutical sciences (Ph.D.). The College is one of four health sciences units within the Mercer Health Sciences Center, which also includes the School of Medicine,  College of Nursing, and College of Health Professions.

With an enrollment of more than 650 students and a distinguished faculty of basic scientists and clinicians, the College of Pharmacy houses seven centers focusing on research, teaching and learning. The College’s motto, “A Tradition of Excellence – A Legacy of Caring,” frames its philosophy of providing excellent academic programs in an environment where every student matters and every person counts.

Mercer University is applying an approach to their health sciences programs called, “interprofessional education or IPE”.  This approach brings students from the various health science programs together with those of the others to talk about their respective considerations when approaching certain care scenarios.  This leads to a greater understanding of the other team members of the multidisciplinary team and ultimately, better patient outcomes.

The College of Pharmacy has also developed a technology platform aimed at putting pharmacologic study data and medicine information in the hands of clinicians to facilitate evidence-based decision making.  Developed with support from Mercer University’s College of Pharmacy, InpharmD is a web-based drug information center. With an estimated 20 million pharmaceutical studies available, InpharmD offers access to the health information that healthcare providers and patients need to make informed and improved decisions.

InpharmD provides customized, evidence-based responses within a user-requested time period. By significantly increasing the credibility of the information and substantially decreasing the turnaround time, InpharmD has created a fundamental change in drug information delivery.
