president and founder
Christy Parrish
Christy founded Christine Irwin Parrish, P.A. in 2017 after having practiced at much larger national and regional law firms for more than twelve years. She brings extensive litigation and trial experience in complex commercial litigation, construction litigation, bankruptcy litigation, consumer financial services litigation, and appellate work to the firm. Christy's approach to litigation is pragmatic and result-oriented. She believes that each motion filed and tactic employed should serve a purpose by bringing her client's case a step closer to the objective.
Christy is admitted to practice in all Florida state courts, the United States District Courts for the Northern, Middle, and Southern Districts of Florida, and the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeal.
She is married to Jimmy Parrish, also a lawyer in Orlando, and together they have three young children.
