Helping Others

Chris’s journey to becoming an attorney actually started with a desire to be an FBI agent. His passion for law turned him toward the legal system in a more direct route, however, and he’s been practicing as an attorney for over 24 years since graduating from the Creighton University School of Law in 1996.

Since then, Chris has specialized in firearms and litigation. Throughout his career, Chris learned that the legal system was not designed for easy navigation. But he knew he could help others reach their goals using his skills and dedication.

Chris’ pride and drive to succeed have resulted in numerous awards, such as the Nebraska Bar President’s Professionalism Award. To this day, Chris stresses that any good lawyer should provide information to their clients above all else, then fight tooth and nail for whatever they decide. This tenacious viewpoint has served him well in his years at Berry Law.

Guns and Cigars

Outside of his work-related efforts, Chris spends his time sport shooting and smoking cigars with his friends and colleagues. He is known throughout the office as the “gun expert” and has even hosted his own range days at the shooting range by his house. Chris is also a part owner of the cigar company Warfighter Tobacco and you can usually see Chris enjoying his time off with a crisp stogie. He also loves spending time with his children, three of whom were born when he was deployed, and his wife, Sarah.
