After graduating, Chris worked for two years in local government at the Martin County Supervisor of Elections office.

After graduating and passing the bar, Chris founded Heritage Law Firm in 2017 and focused his practice on estate planning, guardianships, trust administration, and probate. Chris takes pride in a “client-first” approach where he’s able to assist clients leverage their options to maximize their wealth in order to preserve their legacy for future generations. One of the most important lessons Chris has learned is that failing to properly plan one’s estate causes immense stress and heartache for loved ones. To quote Saint John Paul the Great, “The future starts today, not tomorrow.”
