Parr Waddoups works to resolve commercial contract disputes using the best and most efficient course of action, whether through arbitration, mediation or litigation. Depending on the case, we pursue legal options that offer clients the most efficient and economically fair resolution. When appropriate, we employ alternative dispute resolution strategies consistent with the client's objectives, but are equally qualified and staffed to pursue complex litigation strategies under the most adversarial of conditions. In addition to Utah, many Parr Waddoups attorneys are admitted to practice in other states as well as federal courts in Utah and other jurisdictions, various U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court.

Parr Waddoups has significant experience in prosecuting and defending cases in state and federal courts as well as through alternative dispute resolution. According to Chambers and Partners USA: America's Leading Business Lawyers guide, the litigation practice was described as having "great quality and broad scope that exceeds many of its competitors."
