________________________________________
Professional Overview
W. Cameron “Cam” Parsons Sr. is a Tuscaloosa-based attorney and mediator with more than four decades of legal experience involving business, commercial, contract, real estate, partnership, creditor, and financially complex matters.
Admitted to practice in Alabama in 1978, Cam has represented businesses, entrepreneurs, property owners, creditors, borrowers, and individuals across a broad range of transactional and contested matters.
His experience includes commercial litigation, commercial real estate, business transactions, business asset and entity purchases and sales, entity formation, partnership disputes and wind-downs, commercial collections, creditor and borrower rights, workouts and restructuring, bankruptcy-related matters, real estate transactions, title matters, and oil and gas leasing and development.
This breadth of experience gives Cam a practical understanding of what often drives commercial disputes: contracts, money, property, ownership interests, business relationships, financing arrangements, and the economic consequences of continued conflict.

Mediation & Resolution Approach
Cam brings a practical, business-oriented approach to dispute resolution shaped by decades of advising clients through legal, financial, transactional, and commercial problems.
His approach emphasizes:
• Identifying the principal legal and business issues
• Understanding the financial interests underlying the dispute
• Keeping the parties focused on the issues affecting resolution
• Evaluating practical alternatives to continued conflict
• Reducing unnecessary cost and delay
• Exploring commercially workable settlement opportunities
Cam's combined legal and business background is particularly useful when a dispute involves more than a question of law.
Commercial disputes can involve ongoing business relationships, contractual obligations, property interests, debt, financing, ownership structures, transaction costs, and other considerations that may affect whether settlement makes economic sense.
Cam brings those considerations into the resolution process to help parties and their attorneys evaluate potential paths toward settlement.

• Business formation and organization
• Partnership disputes

Partnership & Ownership Disputes
Disagreements among business owners can involve legal rights as well as questions about money, management, control, valuation, future operations, and the possible dissolution of the business relationship.
Cam's experience with business entities, asset and entity transactions, partnership disputes, and business wind-downs allows him to understand the underlying structure of these disputes and the practical considerations facing owners when a business relationship has deteriorated.
