EXPERIENCE

Mr. Frankel returned to his hometown of Santa Barbara to join Price Postel & Parma’s Litigation Practice Group. As a member of the group, he provides counsel and representation in the wide range of civil litigation matters handled by the firm.

Before joining Price Postel & Parma, Mr. Frankel served for two years as a judicial law clerk for the Honorable Ted C. Tow III at the Colorado Court of Appeals. He then served an additional one-year term for the Honorable M. Terry Fox. As an appellate law clerk, Mr. Frankel drafted over sixty full length opinions resolving civil, criminal, and administrative appeals. In the civil context, he frequently addressed issues involving state permitting decisions, real estate and land use, commercial contract disputes, corporate liability, and federal and state constitutional claims.

As a law student, Mr. Frankel focused his education on public lands, natural resources, and environmental law, and he served as the production editor on the Denver Water Law Review. Through multiple externships, he also gained valuable experience assisting in litigation in state and federal court and participating in alternative dispute resolution.
