Paul T. Curtis | Idaho Falls Personal Injury Lawyer

Paul Tibbitts Curtis was born and raised in Idaho Falls, growing up on the west side of town near the airport. Paul obtained an undergraduate degree in accounting in 1984, at Brigham Young University, and thereafter worked as a tax consultant in Sacramento, California. While still employed on a full-time basis, Mr. Curtis attended Lincoln Law School. After graduating second in his class in 1993, Mr. Curtis practiced personal injury law in the Sacramento area for five years before returning to Idaho Falls.

In 2001, he founded the law practice now known as Curtis, Porter & Adams Law Offices. He specializes in plaintiff's work, focusing on cases involving personal injury and wrongful death. Mr. Curtis is one among the handful of attorneys who is a Certified Specialist in the area of workers' compensation law - meaning he has met the objectives and rigorous standards approved by the Idaho State Bar Association. His ability to meet these stringent requirements makes such a certification a highly-regarded credential.

Mr. Curtis has acted as lead counsel in numerous jury and court trials in both California and Idaho. He is currently licensed to practice law in both Idaho and California, as well as in the Federal courts, including the United States Supreme Court. Most recently, Mr. Curtis has been selected by the National Trial Lawyers as one of the "Top 100" trial lawyers in the State of Idaho for 2012.

He has been actively involved in promoting legislation for the benefit of injured persons. He has successfully initiated the process leading to changes in the law - including laws mandating that all insurance companies in Idaho offer "under-insured" motorist coverage, and laws allowing the estate of a deceased plaintiff to recover damages that, prior to the law, were not available.

Mr. Curtis is married to Rebecca Curtis (Snyder) formerly of Elk Grove, California, and is the father of three children: Logan, Olivia, and Landon. Mr. Curtis is an expert kayaker; he has experience kayaking on the North Fork of the Payette, as well as in the Grand Canyon. He is a former whitewater river guide based out of Moab, Utah. He also enjoys other aspects of the outdoors, including backpacking, mountain climbing, hunting, fishing, alpine and backcountry skiing, and trail riding on both bikes and horses. His 3x3 basketball team (the "Old Dawgs") earned a silver medal in the 2010 Huntsman Senior Games in St. George, Utah.
