About Christopher

My practice focuses on HR advising and business transactions. Prior to co-founding Matrix Law Group I ran a solo law practice and before that I worked in firms.  Prior to practicing law I worked for software companies after receiving my degree in Business Administration.  What separates me from other attorneys is accessability, accountability, and follow through.

I would just like to say Christopher Heim is an awesome attorney!!! He was very helpful & informative in regards to my Workers Comp case. Very good bedside manner (more like chairside, lol) and professional. He really cares about you as a person. Chris has your best interests in mind. My case has settled & I'm happy with the outcome!! Thank you again Chris!!

Friendly and Professional

I fired my first lawyer and hired Chris in my very lengthy/complicated workers comp case. He was very friendly and kept me informed about every twist/turn in my case. Chris fought hard for me and got the best settlement possible. Rather than pushing for a quick payday, he took his time and clearly explained everything whenever I had questions. Quick response time and friendly/professional service. Thank you, Chris. JJ
