As noted above, Mr. Carrow is one of very few lawyers who are dually licensed to practice as a barrister in England and as an attorney in California. Mr. Carrow, an experienced and well recognized litigator, divides his practice time between San Francisco and San Rafael, California, where he maintains offices as a trial attorney, and London, where he practices from chambers as an English barrister.

Mr. Carrow's practice, and that of his associates, includes defense of white collar crimes of a substantial nature. White collar crime is a term signifying assorted types of non-violent crime committed by individuals, as well as corporations, their employees and officers. The category encompasses securities fraud, bribery, extortion, embezzlement, theft and other violations of trust committed in the course of employment, including bribery, racketeering, price-fixing, government contract fraud, perjury and false declarations, stock manipulation, insider trading, RICO and mail fraud. The foregoing definition is not meant to be all inclusive.

Mr. Carrow's expertise, and his qualification to attend to the matters discussed above is evidenced by the fact that he has maintained Martindale-Hubbell's highest rating (AV) since 1979. Approximately eleven percent of the United States bar is honored with an AV rating. He is also listed in The Bar Register of Preminent Lawyers, also published by Martindale-Hubbell, made up of approximately three percent of the practicing bar.

Born in Marshall, Minnesota, Mr. Carrow attended the University of Colorado, the University of Minnesota, from which he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree, and the University of Minnesota Law School, where he served on the Board of Editors of the Minnesota Law Review. He transferred to Stanford University Law School for his last year of study and was awarded a Doctor of Jurisprudence degree from that institution in 1958.

In 1981 Mr. Carrow was honored by being called to the bar of England and Wales by the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple, one of the four Inns of Court.

Mr. Carrow has, for a number of years, served as a judge pro tempore of the California Superior Court and, in that capacity, has presided over more than twenty trials. The California Superior Court is the equivalent of the English High Court, i.e., it is the highest trial court in California. Mr. Carrow has, in the past, been designated as a consultant to the litigation and criminal law sections of the State Bar of California and was a program speaker at the 1995 State Bar of California annual convention.
