Rex Parris

Rex is a veteran trial attorney with a career defined by exceptional courtroom results, including dozens of seven-, eight-, and nine-figure verdicts and settlements. Early in his career, he obtained the first million-dollar verdict in Kern County and later secured a record-breaking $370 million jury verdict for defamation and emotional distress in Los Angeles. His success is rooted in rigorous trial preparation and the strategic use of persuasion science, including tested language, metaphors, and visual advocacy.

In 1985, Rex and his wife, Carrol, founded their law firm with the mission of building a truly great practice focused on results and client service. Decades later, that mission remains unchanged, with continued innovation and dedication to achieving outstanding outcomes for clients across the country.

Beyond the courtroom, Rex has played a significant role in public service as the Mayor of Lancaster since 2008. Under his leadership, the city experienced a dramatic reduction in gang violence, major downtown redevelopment during a historic economic downturn, and a transition of all municipal buildings to solar power, earning national media attention.

Rex is admitted to practice before numerous state and federal courts, including the State Bar of California, the United States Supreme Court, and multiple federal appellate and district courts. His firm represents clients on a contingency fee basis, advancing all litigation costs and aligning its success directly with the results achieved for those it represents.
