About Christopher
Biography
Thank you for visiting my AVVO page.
I have been practicing law in Salt Lake City, Utah since 2006. I have tried cases in state courts across this great state. My clients have included the entire range of our diverse society: from elderly widows to juveniles, urban office workers, truck drivers, and employees of the court system. Many of our cases are referred to us by other attorneys, court clerks, and former clients and we take great pride in handling those cases in the best way possible.
I was born and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, and educated at the University of Utah for my undergraduate degree and the University of Miami School of Law for my law degree.
That the practice of law demands service to our community, is a standard taken seriously by myself and I have made many sacrifices to that end for clients.
I have a history of being able to take a case that other attorneys have given up on and find the silver lining. Many current and former clients have expressed their sincere gratitude that they were able to find someone that was willing to put the effort into their case that was necessary.
I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your case.

Posted by Colton | February 19, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody
Knowledgeable, Reasonably priced, and effective.
I have worked with Chris and some of his other associates several times on issues ranging from custody and divorce to corporations and trust issues. I have always found them to be reasonably priced, responsive, and true to their word of treating the client as an individual as opposed to a number. ...

Mr. Ault was a referral from a law firm practicing in a different field. I retained him for a divorce/custody case. He is easily reachable by various avenues and his staff is up to date on my case and can assist me when Mr. Ault is unavailable. One of the best qualities I like about Mr. Ault is he ...

Trusted and Easy to Talk to
I hired Mr. Ault to help with my divorce at the recommendation of another attorney friend of mine. When we first met he told me that most of his clients turn into friends going through the process. I was able to talk to him everytime I needed something unless I was in court. I was never scared to ...

Horrible attorney, NEVER helped me, harmed my case.
Mr. Ault handled my divorce/custody case in which domestic abuse played a part. He refused to get the video tape that proved that I was physically assaulted-which resulted in broken bones, and did not keep in touch with me, instead telling me that I wanted too much control of my case. He ended up not...

Replied last September 22, 2012this client is apparently upset; unfortunately she has failed to mention that she moved within a week of retaining us, changed her phone number and left us with no way to contact her. In addition, she has a seriously outstanding bill.

Great Attorney!
I had a difficult case, I was in an auto accident but there were some conflicting stories about what happened. I didn't seek treatment right away but I was hurt. My husband and I looked at several lawyers, including the guys you see on tv but we didn't want someone that was there for the "low hangi...
