Litigation is about results

For two decades, Corr Cronin has set the standard for high-stakes litigation in the Pacific Northwest.  Our attorneys are consistently ranked among the best in their field, and the firm is recognized time and again as one of the top litigation firms in Seattle.

We are trial lawyers, first and foremost.  We go to court, we try cases, and we win.  Corr Cronin’s practice areas are as broad as the clients and cases that take us to courtrooms across the country.  

Founded by former big law partners, we combine the sophistication and expertise of a big firm with the lean and client-centered focus of a boutique.  Our mission is simple:  win.
