also known as Chris Rike
Chris was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio. He completed his undergraduate degree at Bowling Green State University on full scholarship as a National Merit Scholar. After several years of working in retail management and operating his own business as a licensed contractor, Chris decided to return to school to become an attorney. He attended law school in California graduating cum laude.
Chris initially focused his practice on family law, helping clients involved in dissolution, child custody, child support, spousal maintenance and other issues resolved in family court. It wasn’t long before he was also representing clients with civil litigation matters. During this time, Chris gained significant experience negotiating settlements and litigating contested issues in court. He used the skills learned in family court and civil litigation to expand his practice to help clients resolve their traffic violation cases. Chris is passionate about defending clients from governmental overreach and a court system that often seems stacked against the defendant.
