About Christopher
Biography
I spent the first 30-years of my life listening to people tell me what a great attorney I would make. After 40-years, I decided I'd find out if they were right. I dedicated myself to law school at age 41. With the support of my wife and business partner, I graduated from MSU College of Law 3-years later.
My 41-years of life before becoming a lawyer has provided me with a unique perspective on the legal system. Court and legal matters can be very intimadating to people without any experience with them. I can explain to you the process and my plan to fight for what your goals are. I'm blunt and honest with all my clients. I don't represent the spitful or those looking for retribution. I represent clients who want an advocate for their best interests and to limit the pain and damage to them and their family during probably the most difficult time in their lives.
I love helping people. I am a natural fighter for all that is right.

Best lawyer EVER!
We used Chris for a parental revocation & step parent adoption. Chris answered everything in great detail, was always available, and made sure we understood everything we were about to embark on.

Dream come true
Chris handled my divorce with flying colors. He fought for what I deserved in the settlement and kept it out of court by using a mediator. Turned out to be the best,, fastest way to get the case done quickly. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who needed a family law attorney.
