Thank you, Trudy and others for reporting this case. I was frustrated by his constant excuses, and now he has dropped off the face of this planet. Although I consider myself street savy, I fell victim to this con artist. His alias was Paul Panera. Paul's legal knowledge of the Washington state family court system and his so-called empathy for parents suffering from parental alienation convinced me he was legitimate. I was wrong. He has taken $4500 of my hard-earned money. Paul's physical description and the description of his car fit exactly what Trudy wrote about Michael Leonard.

You can no longer access . However, I have a copy of his photo that was on his website from my original gut feeling (always follow that initial gut feeling) that he may have been a scam.
