About Christopher
I am the son of divorced parents. I’ve experienced separate households — for good and for bad. Through my practice, I have personally witnessed the breadth of emotions and difficulties experienced by my clients. I understand that those who come see me are dealing with one of the most difficult times in their lives.
I consider myself an energetic and adaptive attorney trying each day to make a difference in people’s lives. I travel up and down the Oregon coast helping clients resolve their divorces and come to child custody and parenting time arrangements that are best for their priorities and their children. I bring with me over 15 years of legal experience, including more than 5 years dedicated to family issues.
I work with people from all walks of life facing all kinds of family law challenges. I sit down with my clients to help them understand their options and create a plan to get through the hard times, putting their children, and their needs front and center in the case. I pride myself in the personal touch I bring to every one of my cases, treating my clients like family and helping them find a clear path forward for them and their families.
I consider myself extremely lucky to be married to my wife, Jen, and the father of two wonderful boys, Austin and Ryan. I was raised in California, but followed family to the Oregon north coast, and can think of no other place I would want to call home.
I received my law degree from the University of Oregon and am proud to help people in Clatsop and Tillamook counties. I am engaged with the family law sections of the American Bar Association and Oregon Bar Association. I sit on the Local Family Law Advisory Committee and am the Secretary of the Clatsop County Bar Association.

Testimonials
Hired Chris Palmer and Liz Moore from this firm to help me with my case. It was a very stressful and difficult situation but they were amazing and helped me through it while aggressively representing my best interest. They are smart, tough and extremely honest. They were always willing to talk to me and always responded in a timely manner. I was so happy I hired them and ended up with a great outcome in the end. They were worth every penny I spent. I would not hesitate to hire them again if I needed to.
– David S., ★★★★★ Review
Christopher was very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. He is without a doubt the most competent, down to earth attorney I've ever talked to. He doesn't talk down to you and he is very well spoken. It's obvious he's would have a powerful presence in a courtroom.
