Parker E. Moore

Counsel
Charlotte | 704.371.6150
Fax | 704.334.4706

Parker Moore advises clients on the full lifecycle of construction projects. He is the former managing assistant general counsel for a top-5 ENR design-build firm. His clients now include developers, owners, general contractors, subcontractors, and materials suppliers. He is a leader within North Carolina's construction law community, having served as chair of the NC Bar Association's Construction Law Section.  

In Parker's most recent role, he reviewed, negotiated, and revised billions of dollars' worth of complex construction contracts, as well as subcontracts, professional service agreements, and purchase orders. He also managed large payment and defect claims asserted by and against the company, and he advised corporate leadership on risks of all types across the company's national footprint. 

Prior to his in-house role, Parker was a partner in the construction practice group at a midsize Charlotte firm, where he primarily focused on construction projects but also represented clients in general litigation. Earlier in his career, Parker built a strong courtroom foundation as an assistant public defender and as a litigator in construction defect, personal injury, and commercial liability disputes. He has tried numerous cases to North Carolina juries throughout the state, and he has also arbitrated multiple construction disputes. Parker draws on that experience to give clients clear-eyed assessments of risk, venues, and likely outcomes so they can make confident business decisions.

Parker received his law degree from Elon University, where he was president of its chapter of the Innocence Project. He received his bachelor's degree from Greensboro College, where he played football and made the all-conference academic team.
