Parker C. Aungst

Attorney

Profile
Experience

Parker became an attorney at Denver Trial Lawyers in October of 2024, after passing the Colorado Bar Exam. Prior to passing the Bar, Parker worked at Denver Trial Lawyers as a law clerk researching complex medical malpractice injuries as well as writing motions and letters to assist our Denver Trial Lawyers attorneys. Parker is dedicated to helping those who are seriously injured as a result of medical malpractice or automobile accidents.

Parker obtained his J.D. from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law in 2024. He was one of a handful students awarded the prestigious Sturm Law Scholars Award designed to recruit particularly outstanding law students to Colorado.

During his time in law school, Parker was driven to hone his trial skills. He competed in several national mock trial competitions against the top law schools in the country as a part of the highly ranked University of Denver National Trial Team.

In his first year of law school, Parker was a finalist in the Hogan Lovells first-year law student Town Cup Mock Trial Competition. In his second year, Parker competed in the National Trial Regional Competition and was named as a runner-up best second year advocate at the Advocates Cup Competition. In his final year, Parker was a semi-finalist in the Verdict Mock Trial Competition, a finalist in the National Trial Regional Competition, best advocate in the Advocates Cup Competition, and awarded the “Lionheart” National Trial Team award.

In addition to competing in mock trial, Parker earned two certificates in legal research, participated in the Student Trial Lawyers Association as a first-year law student mock trial coach, helped teach two first year legal writing courses as a teaching assistant, and was named President of the 2023-2024 Criminal Law Association. In his free time, Parker also created “Parker’s Peer Mentor Program” which mentored several first-year law students to help them navigate the professional and legal world.

Parker was born and raised in Southern California, Los Angeles. Before law school, Parker received his graduate degree with honors in Psychology from one of the top Psychology education programs in the country at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Although he occasionally misses the sandy Southern California beaches, he was happy to move to Colorado for the beautiful mountains and amazing skiing weather. Parker loves all things sci-fi and is one of the few but proud Star Trek fans affectionately named “Trekkies.” In his spare time, Parker enjoys watching “B” rated movies with friends, playing board games, and hiking.
