About Christopher

Communication is key.Protect your children and your assets.

I started my legal career as a prosecutor. Although I did not realize this during my time in law school, I came to realize at the State Attorney's Office that I had a true passion for trial and the courtroom. I'm not afraid to write a lengthy motion to challenge the legitimacy of my opponents position, but in the end I've come to the conclusion that the buck stops at trial. When I'm not in the courtroom I enjoy competitive sports like boxing, soccer and rugby. I like to hike to clear my mind and write pulp fiction stir my brain a little.

I hired Mr. Dunham for my DUI case a few years back and then again on a family matter back in January. I was really nervous during my DUI case, I didn't have a lot of money and I was sure I was going to jail, Mr. Dunham spoke pretty frankly with me about the possible outcomes while still being pretty sincere, and he worked with me on the fees, not a lot of lawyers out there willing to do that I tell you what! He helped me out with my custody issues too, I admit I got a little heated over some stuff and who wouldn't when your kids involved, but he explained the process pretty well and we got things figured out. overall a pretty stand up, down to earth guy.

I am very pleased with this attorney, it is hard to express how I feel. He was very respectable to the other party, all his questions were direct. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. I am so grateful! I recommend this lawyer to anyone who asks. Sincerely, Jefferson Gonzalez

Chris Dunham is absolutely amazing. He took the time to sit & speak to me & answer all my questions. He is without a doubt the best around. I now have ease of mind thanks to Mr.Dunham & for that I will be forever thankful. I called him after I was served with paternity & custody papers. I couldn’t stop crying on the phone. He told me to come to his office & he would talk to me & tell me what I needed. I showed up with my papers already filled out. He spoke with me for a extended length of time, looked over my papers & broke down to me how the process would work going forward. I am so thankful for him.

I was looking for an attorney to represent me in a dissolution of marriage case when I called upon Dunham and Ingram. mAttorney Chris Dunham agreed to take on my case. Chris was very helpful in pointing out things to protect me as the process ensued and would return calls and meet when needed. The wife and I wee able to come to an agreement for the settlement which was acceptable to both parties and documented by Mr. Dunham. From start to finish it took approximately three months to complete. I am extremely glad Mr. Dunham handled this case for me and I will not hesitate to recommend him to others. Should the need arise in the future for legal assistance I will definitely seek out Mr. Dunham.

I hired Christopher a few weeks ago for my DUI. I was extremely nervous, and did not know how or where to start on the process. I was scared of the possible outcomes, and feared the worst. Chris made me feel a lot better, while still being very realistic of all that was to come. Not only did chris go out of his way to help me, but his whole team from the moment I stepped in their office made me feel as if I was one of their own. They were there for me every step of the way, and I cannot stress enough how grateful I am for them. I would highly reccomend Christopher, and I am very happy with him.

I was falsely accused of a crime. I was scared and lost and had no idea which direction to go or the steps I needed to take. Chris made it all easy for me and helped put my mind at ease. He educated me on many things and made sure to keep me well informed on the steps he was taking to help with my case. Chris made this scary moment in my life very stress free. He handled everything so I didn't have to worry. In the end he was successful and got my case dropped! I couldn't have asked for a better or more efficient lawyer.

Chris was my lawyer for a custody/child support case for my two kids. He and tiera(his paralegal) were prompt anytime I needed to speak with them. He wasn’t how I expected a lawyer to be, he genuinely cared about helping my kids and me, and making sure everything was done smoothly and help ease the stress during a very tense time. He is very knowledgeable and always came prepared to any hearing or meeting.

I found myself in need of an attorney a few weeks back. I called several law firms & was told someone would get back to me. (which no one did) When I called Dunham & Ingram that was not the case. I was quickly connected to Chris Dunham. I explained my situation to him, he was very easy to talk to and explained everything so that I could understand it. I was given an appointment to see him that same afternoon. As soon as I met Chris I knew he was the attorney that I wanted helping me. He calmed my nerves and I knew right then that everything was going to be ok. If you are looking for a GREAT attorney, I highly recommend Chris Dunham.

He will put the time in to make sure the file receives the attention it deserves from the very beginning of the case through settlement or trial.
