From the Chambers USA America’s Leading Lawyers for Business

2006 Client’s Guide

Corr Cronin Michelson Baumgardner & Preece LLP

The Firm:  This is a litigation boutique whose size belies the breadth of its capabilities.  Researchers received plenty of endorsements for a practice “well capable of taking on and beating the best.”  Much of the attorneys’ time is spent representing large local companies and companies from outside the state, that nevertheless, have a strong Seattle presence.

 

The Lawyers:  “One of the best attorneys you could go to,” Kelly Corr enjoys a hugely varied practice.  Highlights of the year have included the continuing representation of Hearst in its ongoing battle with The Seattle Times.  Corr was particularly commended for “conducting a very tight case.”  He also represented the former chair and CEO of Metropolitan Mortgages in a class action securities fraud and grand jury investigations.  An adept appeal attorney, Corr was also engaged in a significant trade secrets case involving the semiconductor industry where he prevailed in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

 

William Cronin’s practice focuses on securities and fiduciary litigation and insurance coverage litigation.  Both lawyers are considered “devilishly effective strategists who always keep the goal in sight.”
