In courtrooms, board rooms, and conference rooms across the country and around the world, it is a business truth: opposing interests will clash. Often, much is at stake. Wisdom, courage, and uncompromising work ethic are prerequisites to success in this demanding environment. The attorneys of Carroll Warren & Parker (CWP) do far more than simply survive. In the world of dispute resolution and litigation, CWP thrives. The firm has a confidence, tenacity, and success rate in handling disputes and litigation that few peers, anywhere, can claim.

Carroll Warren & Parker PLLC is listed in the 2008 Chambers USA Guide published by Chambers And Partners, a global leader in client-led intelligence on the legal profession.

A commitment to resolving disputes and pursuing litigation when necessary is CWP's hallmark. It's a mindset as much as anything. CWP will neither generalize nor try to be all things. By choice, it is a litigation firm through and through. CWP knows how to handle complex, high-stakes cases. From investigation to formulation of strategy to discovery to trial to appeal, CWP's approach is full-court press. That being said, while CWP knows the value of being ready to "see you in court," the courthouse is the last resort. Often, CWP's understanding of the litigation process and the perception by the opposition that CWP is willing to go to trial—with the track record to back it up—are more than enough to garner a favorable out-of-court settlement for a client. And therein lies the essence of strategic litigation: knowing what to do, how to do it, and when it should be done.

CWP has developed this mindset into an art form, particularly in the realm of complex disputes. Its attorneys have experience in the gamut of complex disputes: products liability, insurance coverage issues, municipal annexation, business torts, large loss subrogation---even white collar criminal cases. CWP brings to bear insight and influence that transcend what most consider the role of legal counsel. Applying this holistic approach to often volatile situations yields uncommon results. CWP sets itself apart through its ability to properly staff a case, assemble a team of experts, guide the client through the investigation process, and ease tensions between parties not normally connected but allied by circumstance.
