Parag’s diversity in background and professional career provides him with a well-rounded view to connect with all parties for any type of dispute. Parag is of Indian descent, growing up in a small town in Arkansas. Since moving to Atlanta in 2006, Parag has developed a successful personal injury, criminal defense and general litigation practice with his wife, Elizabeth George; authored three legal pocketbooks called The Code; taught trial techniques at law schools and trial programs across the country; regularly appeared as a legal expert on CNN’s Headline News and local news stations; and co-founded MyCLE, Georgia’s premier continuing legal education company.
