Christopher represents clients in state and federal court; regularly interacting with clients to advance their case and motivating opposing parties to resolution, when and if necessary. When resolution is possible, he zealously advocates for his client’s position and drafts settlement, release and conciliation agreements consistent with the terms his clients require.
As demonstration of his skill in advocating for his clients, he drafted a significant summary judgment motion in an 18-count complaint, which included Fair Housing Act, breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the Illinois Condominium Property Act claims. The court granted summary judgment in favor of his client on all counts.
Christopher also regularly represents clients before administrative agencies, preparing position statements on behalf of businesses in response to charges of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Illinois Department of Labor, Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, and Delaware Department of Labor. He is skilled at preparing and presenting clients for mediations and fact-finding conferences before state employment administrative agencies.
While at Notre Dame Law School, Christopher served as an extern with the university’s NCAA compliance office, where he reviewed contracts for multiple Notre Dame athletics programs and advised on legal and compliance issues.
Christopher is not regularly admitted to practice in the state courts of Indiana.
