Chris got his start litigating while in the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General’s Corps.

He next served as the Assistant Command Judge Advocate on board the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63), home-ported to Yokosuka, Japan, and deployed throughout the western Pacific and Arabian Sea.
After leaving active duty, Chris began his civilian career with Jabin & Fleming. He quickly built a practice centered on individuals in need of representation, whether due to suffering an injury or being accused of a criminal offense. Upon joining the Navy Reserves, Chris was assigned to the International and Operational Law Unit as an international law attorney. Called back to active duty in 2008, Chris served as the legal advisor to the Navy Expeditionary Logistics Support Group, Forward Headquarters, Kuwait. After rejoining his civilian practice, Chris once again started fighting for the rights of his clients.
Chris is currently assigned as the Commanding Officer of the Navy Reserve Defense Institute of International Studies. Previously, he served as the Commanding Officer of the Navy Reserve unit that supports the Naval Justice School, and as the Executive Officer of the Navy Reserve Naval War College’s International Law Department. He has taught courses on the law of armed conflict and trial advocacy throughout the world.
