LLB
Chris was admitted as a solicitor in 1991.
Formerly a partner at Dean Kath & Kohler Lawyers in Toowoomba, in 2021 Chris returned to the Gold Coast where he was raised.
Chris has practised in litigation for over 30 years, appearing in many Queensland courts and tribunals, interstate courts and federal courts.
His main areas of legal practice are:
- property disputes
- contract disputes
- business disputes
- debt recovery
- deceased estate disputes
- professional negligence claims
- property resumption compensation
Chris has a strong track record of obtaining good results for his clients. He credits this to his consistent focus on:
- understanding client objectives from the outset
- providing early and frank advice on prospects of success, options going forward, strategy, costs, and applicable time-frames
- explaining processes clearly
- making himself readily available to clients
- regularly utilising mediations and settlement conferences where appropriate to advance dispute resolution and to minimise costs
He enjoys assisting clients by navigating them through what can otherwise be the stressful experience of enforcing or protecting their legal rights.
Chris enjoys being part of the local business and legal communities.
Outside the law, his main pursuits are enjoying the beach lifestyle with his family, surfing, and playing guitar.
