Christopher Wright

My company and I have used Chris on several matters over the last 8 years. The cases have involved disputes with both Owners and Subcontractors. What we like about Chris, and why we continue to use Chris, is his strong ethical and team oriented approach to his work. While Chris approaches his wor...k intelligently, he is not afraid of "hard work". His unwavering integrity and competitiveness, combined with his keen knowledge/expertise in the construction field, provide great value and favorable outcomes.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
