Christopher started his legal career by prosecuting bad guys accused of horrific sex crimes for the Bronx District Attorney’s office, and the courtroom became his second home.
Over the years he has practiced in several different areas, handling matters as diverse as nasty divorces and custody battles to serving as general counsel to tech companies to representing pilots in licensing issues. In addition to being a scary trial lawyer when called upon to whip out those skills, Christopher also has developed a habit of being invited to give talks to other lawyers about legal technology and law practice management at big lawyer conferences, and works to help other lawyers across the country to improve their law firms as well.
Like Penn, Christopher is admitted to practice law in the state and federal courts of Colorado, New York and Georgia.
Christopher enjoys snow skiing, oenology, quantum mechanics and astrophysics. He is a frequent, if not always enthusiastic, runner. He is conversational in Dutch and roots for the Netherlands during the World Cup. He makes a mean cappuccino and prefers his martinis stirred, not shaken.
In addition to leading New Leaf Family, Christopher is also a thought leader and mentor to hundreds of law firms across the country, and the long-standing host of The Unbillable Hour, a leading podcast that bringing about innovation in the way law firms work.
