Experience.
As a young attorney, George Carry can already claim "big case" trial experience, having been a key participant in several multi-week trials in major cases. George has extensive experience in discovery matters, including all aspects of electronic discovery and litigation support systems, and his experience extends to complex construction contract and commercial disputes.
As passionate about his client's success as he is about his personal goals, George works tirelessly and with great devotion and focus on all aspects of client matters. When preparing clients for trial and testimony, George takes the time to work with each client one-on-one to ensure that they are well prepared for their time in court. With this exceptional client focus, it's no surprise that clients regularly request that George be assigned to their cases.
While George is eager to be in court, he knows that sometimes mediation is the best solution for clients, and he has extensive mediation experience because he recognizes that strong mediation strategy is critical for achieving resolution of disputes when it's in the clients best interest. George diligently prepares for mediation, arbitration and trial to achieve successful results for his clients and he has been a key participant in numerous mediations where he has been a primary drafter of effective mediation PowerPoint™ presentations.
Passion.
Driven by a commitment to excellence, George stays cutting-edge on both law and technology in order to enhance the firm's practice of law and achieve results for clients. He understands that technology offers attorneys previously unimaginable ways to benefit their clients. To this end, he has zealously managed and maintained very large electronic and hardcopy document production databases in major litigation where literally every document had to be at the trial group's fingertips.
George is a regular contributor to the firm's client seminar series and other industry and client education programs.
Outside the practice of law, George is driven by training for and competing in triathlons, which require endurance similar to that of the multi-week trials in which he has engaged.
