Career

Chris is one of the most accomplished trial and appellate lawyers in the United States. He has tried more than 100 cases to jury verdict in federal and state courts across Massachusetts and in several other New England states. His clients include publicly traded and privately held companies, insurers and reinsurers, and individuals in complex, large risk litigation across a broad variety of matters, including product liability, premises liability, professional malpractice, aviation, insurance coverage disputes, and other high-profile, media-sensitive matters. Ironically, his love for trying cases often results in quicker resolution of cases that can be settled.
