The Nature Of What We Do

Whether your legal issues arise from an internal shift in strategy, imminent litigation or current economic conditions, the corporate and litigation lawyers of Parr Waddoups will apply a breadth and depth of legal expertise to your critical business concerns to provide focused and timely insights and advice. Legal expertise is an important feature when selecting a law firm, but how well the knowledge is applied and delivered is where the real value lies. By working closely with clients we create rock solid corporate and litigation solutions, which are based on years of legal and industry experience, but unique to your situation.

The firm is consistently recognized by peers and clients for its sophisticated legal work. The 2008 edition of The Best Lawyers in America selected 26 Parr Waddoups attorneys and recognized 12 practice areas as number one in Utah. The number one practice areas are: Construction, Corporate Governance & Compliance, Corporate Law, Eminent Domain & Condemnation, First Amendment Law, Information Technology, Land Use & Zoning Law, Mergers & Acquisitions, Private Funds, Real Estate, Securities Law and Tax Law.

In 2007, the Chambers and Partners USA: Leading Business Lawyers directory recognized 12 Parr Waddoups lawyers in M&A, commercial litigation and real estate as among the best in Utah and, in the 2007 debut issue of Mountain States Super Lawyers, 15 Parr Waddoups attorneys were named as among the best in their practice areas within the Intermountain region. Four Parr Waddoups attorneys made the Top 75 Mountain States Super Lawyers list (Robert Clark, David Gee, Brian Lloyd, Clark Waddoups).

Utah Business magazine surveyed thousands of Utah State Bar members and asked them to nominate business and litigation lawyers they deemed the best in the state and whose services they would recommend to others. From the results, the magazine compiled the 2008 Legal Elite, which included 39 Parr Waddoups corporate and litigation lawyers.

The evidence of our quality work is the long list of favorable results we have achieved for our clients in areas such as complex commercial litigation, mergers & acquisitions, commercial finance, technology, real estate and construction, the environment, employment, international law and other practice areas. We have a particular depth of experience in industries such as banking and financial services, construction, water, mining and natural resources, computers and software, pharmaceuticals and chemicals, printing and publishing, real estate and insurance.
