During that first term, Paul's significant legislative successes included legislation that completely revamped and modernized California’s trademark laws, providing California businesses with stronger protections for their intellectual property. 

In 2009, Paul was elected to lead Los Angeles' second City Council district. Priorities have been and are steering Los Angeles to a budget surplus and fully restoring neighborhood services. Expanding public transportation infrastructure, including Valley rail and bus service. Creating good jobs with good pay, including keeping film and TV jobs in the Valley.
