About Christopher
Biography
I love being a lawyer and helping entrepreneurs, startups, and small and medium sized businesses create amazing companies. I also love practicing law through Venture Legal because it allows me to serve my clients in a unique way using fixed fees, online file sharing, digital billing, and electronic signatures.
My goal is to become a team player inside your company, to provide advice beyond that of just legal advice, to practice what Google® calls Horseback Law, and to try to provide “yes if” answers rather than just answering “no.”
I’m a big supporter of Kansas City, the founder of Twenty30Mentors and a proud member/mentor with Think Big Partners, Social Media Club Kansas City, The Kauffman Foundation, UMKC E-Scholars, The Sprint Accelerator, Coffee + Design, Startup Grind, and Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts.
Prior to law school I worked as a recording engineer in Nashville and New York City. When I decided to pursue a law degree to study intellectual property, I chose my hometown law school: The University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law. I was an editor of the law review, published a paper on “copylefts,” and graduated magna cum laude with an emphasis in Business and Entrepreneurial Law.
In addition to running Venture Legal, I’m the Founder and President of b.Legal Marketing, a marketing firm that helps lawyers develop business, and also a Co-Founder of Edge Up Sports, where geeks are merging big data with fantasy football.
