About Christopher
Biography
Born and raised in Florida, I have lived up and down the I-4 corridor all my life. I began my interest in the law during my middle school years while watching the infamous OJ Simpson trial and acquittal. The following year, I applied to a magnet high school specializing in legal studies and began my track to fulfill my goal of becoming a lawyer. Upon graduating from high school I attended Stetson University majoring in Political Science and minoring in Computer Science. After finishing Stetson College of Law and passing the Florida Bar Exam, I opened up my law firm and offer a wide variety of legal services from criminal and corporate law to appellate and family law. My love for the profession is immense, I used to assist the local youth in Hillsborough County in a mock trial competition that is held every year. My major joy in life is spending time and raising my two beautiful children, Lincoln and Athena, and spending time with my lovely wife Shelly. I also enjoy poker, racing, football and now not afraid to call myself a Tampa Bay Rays fan!
