Christopher Flood

"I became a trial lawyer to help people, because I don't like the idea of an insurance company or large corporation pushing somebody around."

Christopher J. Flood is a skilled trial attorney dedicated to obtaining compensation for accident victims. He only represents injured individuals and has never represented the interests of an insurance company. He is devoted to making insurance companies compensate injured individuals fairly.

He finished law school with distinction, graduating Magna Cum Laude. After law school, Chris practiced personal injury law in several top litigation firms throughout the state, where he successfully settled and tried to verdict hundreds of cases on behalf of injured people. He gained the experience necessary to maximize his clients’ recoveries.
