Christopher practices law in Tallahassee and the surrounding areas.

I believe that there’s nothing in life that matters more than relationships. The business model of our law firm is founded on the practice of building genuine relationships with our clients and giving them world class legal service. This allows us to get full and fair compensation for them, as well as enriching our lives with lifelong friendships. As a managing partner at Fasig Brooks, I make sure that every client is treated like family. How we treat people matters. I see customer service as not only good for business, but also the way I’m fulfilling my mission in life: to make my community a better place. Life comes down to a series of moments. Some are painful; others are joyful. Sometimes our most painful moments are the catalysts for immense experiences of joy. It’s an amazing honor to support our clients as they recover from injuries, rebuild their lives, and come back stronger. Jimmy is the leader of our personal injury division and lead trial counsel on most of our non-medical malpractice cases. In 2000, he started his law career as a paralegal for what was then Eubanks & Barrett. In his first full year as a lawyer, he litigated a case that resulted in a 1.6 million dollar recovery. His client walked away with more than a million dollars after paying attorney fees and costs. Jimmy became a partner and shareholder in the law firm that same year. Since then, Jimmy has had numerous multimillion and million dollar recoveries. In 2015, he was listed in the nation’s top 1% of lawyers when he obtained a 5.4 million dollar verdict and a 3.1 million dollar judgment from a jury trial in Gadsden County, Florida. Jimmy has witnessed firsthand the way insurance companies and big businesses take advantage of people, and he has developed a strategy he calls the “full court press” strategy for achieving justice for his clients. He loves being a lawyer, and he loves fighting for his clients in front of a jury. His most compelling characteristic is his love for the people he serves. He demonstrates compassion for his clients both in and out of the courtroom. If you are looking for a compassionate, aggressive attorney who will fight for your rights, Jimmy is the attorney for you.

I’m a seasoned trial lawyer, now in my 27th year of practicing law as a civil litigator. I received my J.D., summa cum laude, after attending Georgetown University Law Center and University of Miami School of Law, where I served as a member of the distinguished University of Miami Law Review. Upon graduation, I became a member of the Order of the Coif, which is an honor bestowed on Juris Doctor graduates who rank in the top 10% of their class. Until joining Fasig Brooks in 2016, I was a partner in an esteemed civil defense firm, where I gained invaluable jury and bench trial experience representing both international and local corporations and insurance companies. As a shareholder at Fasig Brooks, I am uniquely positioned to use that experience to provide my clients with the results they deserve when fighting against the very defendants and insurance carriers that I used to represent. I’m compassionate, determined, and resilient, and I treat my clients the way I would want my family treated by an attorney.
