Lucius Aemilius Paullus or Paulus was the brother of triumvir Marcus Aemilius Lepidus. He was consul of 50 BC. During his consulship, he was bribed by Caesar for his support. He reconstructed the Basilica Aemilia in Rome, with part of his bribery money. He was murdered, around the time the second triumvirate was formed.

He had at least two sons; one was Aemilius Lepidus Paullus; and the other (name unknown) married Cornelia Scipio.
